Well, #RFKJr's #MAHA Pt 2 is out and it's garbage, as expected. I tell the LA Times:
“If you’re putting out a report that’s supposed to address how to help our children stay healthier, and you’re not even mentioning the No. 1 cause of childhood deaths, you ought to be embarrassed,” said Bruce Mirken, a spokesperson for @defendpublichealth.bsky.social

Today’s autism announcement was just as bad as we feared
Trump blamed Tylenol & vaccines for autism
He encouraged women to just “tough out” their pain
He praised people who don’t “need” meds or vaccines
These are eugenicist talking points & they’re devastating to the disability community.
My latest looks at the threat to our lives, as well as how we can support one another.
We must not give up hope, but we need our non disabled allies to fight with us.
Refuse to see us as expendable and help us demand better:

Hallucinating #GoldStandard science
"The #MAHA Report Cites Studies That Don’t Exist."
https://www.notus.org/health-science/make-america-healthy-again-report-citation-errors
"Health Secretary #RFKJr says his “Make America Healthy Again” Commission report harnesses “gold-standard” science, citing more than 500 studies and other sources to back up its claims. Those citations, though, are rife with errors, from broken links to misstated conclusions. Seven of the cited sources don’t appear to exist at all."

HOW MUCH YOU WANNA BET the vast majority of these new recruits in South Carolina are Black and Puerto Rican? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/ice-agents-will-stationed-marine-corps-graduation-events-south-carolin-rcna265941
these #MAGA #MAHA fuckwads already egged Trump into sending #ICE into military bases to kidnap the families of active personnel; and they are using Army brats to get rid of birthright citizenship.
Marines are the literal vanguard of #USMIL invasions yet, incredibly, the racist cultists need to terrorize them in the middle of an illegal war with #Iran
"[#MAHA] cast health as a luxury commodity to be achieved through class signifiers like organic food and expensive supplements peddled by wellness influencers, instead of as a collective project that cuts across class, race and other identities. Pesticides expose the lie behind that fantasy. You can shop organic food and grow your own tomatoes, but a stiff breeze can blow the Roundup your neighbor sprayed on his lawn directly into your face."

#MAHA #MAGA IS A DEATH CULT, evidence kabillion squared.
get your #shingles #vaccines. there is strong evidence of the connection between the virus (#chickenpox turned #herpes zoster) and #Alzheimer's induced #dementia.
“By reducing the chance that the #varicella-zoster virus - which causes chickenpox - can reactivate into shingles, the vaccine may combat virus-generated inflammation and sticky protein formation that's implicated in Alzheimer's disease”

If like me you're fortunate not to have anti-vax relatives, Murder Jerky would be a great person to "honor" this way.
