How do you know what is going through his worm infested brain? I think its fair to assume the worst about this idiot and extrapolate what he actually means when he talks about these 'wellness' camps.
At the very least, he wants to take meds away from people who need them to survive and be happy. That's already batshit levels of insane and cruel. I don't think forced labor camps are too much of a stretch from there.
There's just so many people that work on movies and finance them that there has got to be a 100℅ chance that every great movie has a dickweasle wedged in the process somewhere.
Yea, studies have found that washing raw chicken underwater doesn't help , and actually causes people to spread salmonella and other bacteria around their kitchens.
Just cook the thing to 165°F and kill it all.
Battery^2^
Please dont get me wrong here, I'm not defending the CCPs treatment of the Ulghurs, at all, and it does fit the broad definition of genocide, but it is not the same as the Holocaust death camps.
The camps in China are much more akin to the "Indian schools" that the US sent native Americans to in an attempt to get them to forget their culture and "civilize" them. Also, maybe a bit of the Japanese interment camp experience from the US in WWII.
It's still disgusting and needs to be called out, don't get me wrong, but its not quite the same as literal death camps, or the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
I mean there is a faction of liberals that hate AOC, but the person/people who made the meme definitely aren't liberal.
It's not that the union head should be neutral. The head of a union should be openly and unapologetically pro-union. Going on a podcast and agreeing with someone who is right-wing extremely anti-union, is a very bad and traitorous look for the head of the union.
Fair point. I guess I'm not immune. I was protected from that kind of propaganda by the armor of wise and empathetic family members, and their ability to educate and lead by example.
Some of us do seem to be immune to the propaganda, though. I've heard so much anti-union propaganda. I've heard so much anti-Socialist rhetoric, anti-woke bullshit, etc. I was educated and employed in a red state.
Yet, here I am telling you that Socialism is the truth. Unions are awesome. I support just about any marginalized groups rights. Many of my friends and family feel the same even though they were educated and indoctrinated in the same system.
There is a lot more to it than just propaganda. I would say that tribalism plays a larger role. When someone is born into a conservative family, surrounded by conservative citizens, it becomes a lot easier to just agree with the status quo in the area to fit in. I can tell you, from my experience, that I was not very popular in school, due to being a dirty leftist with empathy.
I will say that my immediate family is not religious, not conservative, and they are very open minded, loving and empathetic people. This is probably the main reason I was immune to the propaganda.
We have places like San Fransisco and New York, with some of the richest people in the whole world regularly walking past homeless encampments. I don't think the structure is the problem. I think it has much more to do with the culture and family they are raised in.
We live in a society that rewards narcissism. Our society tells these rich people that homeless people are only homeless because of bad personal choices.
There is no reward for empathy, besides the positive feeling a healthy person would get from being kind. In fact, being empathetic can be a detriment to being successful, so many upper class families skip that lesson plan on purpose.
This really resonates with me. You are an excellent writer.
The part about empathy is so real. A lack of empathy is a real advantage in today's world, unfortunately. I think empathy should be one of the most important values a society should strive for, and we decided to make a society that rewards sociopathy instead.
I mean I'm not a white american, and I don't see why race matters in this conversation anyways. I'm not on meds, either, but I will speak out for those who are. Obviously, fuck Donald Trump and his literal concentration camp, but this thread was about RFK, and his hypothetical(for the moment) concentration camps, so idk what you are on about.
We would probably be comrades irl. I literally think borders should be illegal, I think you are mad at the wrong person here.
