    I know. I'm being a prick because I want it too. RFK Jr. is singlehandedly accelerating the rate at which people are rejecting science. And our numbers were already way too fucking low.

    Agreed. Babies need the Hep B vaccine. He doesn't even know basic shit when it comes to science. Tylenol and vaccines DON'T CAUSE AUTISM. There are so many measles outbreaks in the country it's just sad and disturbing

    Internet literacy and scientific literacy need to be core curriculum. Idk why high schools think everyone needs to study a second language when we aren't currently smart enough to navigate truth in our own.

    Studying another language can be beneficial if you plan on going to a foreign country for work or studies. The school system has been shitty for years and I didn't learn some shit until I was in high school. I graduated in 2023.

    I have witnessed the lack of utility of learning a foreign language first and second-hand (it's hard to bet on what language you need most in the future when you're 14), and imho it pales in comparison to the dangers of current lack of understanding of the two topics I mentioned.

    I was going to type out a more long-winded justification, but seeing as I'm prone to do that when I should be doing something else, and seeing this is not really the subreddit for this discussion, I will leave this at "we pretty much agree already and are splitting hairs" and leave it at that. Cheers

    Honestly the weirdest part, at least to me, of the whole Tylenol autism thing is that they lied about it causing autism, when they could have just said it was liver toxic and a decent bit of people die from it each year. Hell, to pump the numbers up they could use overdose statistics for it to pump it up by ~60000 deaths a year.

    He is, but I don't know if being continuously hyped up with hope for things that will inevitably fail and disappoint is the right attitude :/

    I will vote when I can (different country, same shit), but that doesn't really require much hope. It's not like I (or the vast majority) would do anything more anyway.

    The world sucks and it will get much worse. I'll do what I can to an extent I consider reasonable, but I don't need delusions about reality

    I'm ngl to you gang living here has been miserable as shit. The time I felt happy this year was when Mamdani won. This is some good news for today but it's just crazy. I always know that the worst thing will happen before the good thing so I've been prepared to be disappointed.

    Whatever's happening in the US now also seems to be a world-wide thing. I honestly think this might be just human nature, too. Maybe not completely inevitable, but close.

    If AI doesn't destroy us all or create an unpredictable world order, at least.

    It was the only high quality GIF I could find at the moment so I'm sorry about that fuckass watermark. RFK, Jr. should've been fired a long time ago. There are measles outbreaks in the country and babies DO NEED the Hep B vaccine.

    I can honestly just imagine if Trump's presidency ended like Stalin's; when he died, practically no one knew what tf was gonna happen, Beria was about to take it but got shot, some dude named Molotov took over for a negligible time, and then the most moderate and modest communist came to power. So much so he quit after the missile drama.

    Edit: Correct me if I'm wrong pls

    I am not against impeaching him. However, I feel like they could have gotten him on something else. Like, this guy has a plethora of horrible stuff you could get him on, yet you choose abuse of power? I feel like what they're trying to get him on will not succeed, unfortunately.
