If you say 'heteronormative' or 'unhoused person' or 'food insecurity' you're basically talking gibberish and nobody can understand you but if you say you can see inflammation in children at the airport and that vaccines lower IQ or that germs are a myth you get to fire all the scientists.

Nope. Both parties are capitalists through and through, but within the Democratic Party is a small but continuous strain from the early part of the 20th century, when socialist and communist parties were briefly rising in America. Itâs what bred unions and a progressive tax.

I donât think the Dems would defund science initiatives or make anti-vaccination the public health policy, and theyâre largely socialist-lite (public schools, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, CDC, NIH, etc). Iâd rather work on pushing them more to the left, then acquiescing to the Right.
