US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

 

[The Ugly One]

It might put the FBI into legal jeopardy if they made a fake hate group which explicitly set out to associate themselves with a political figure. Even in Charlottesville, the "Unite the Right" op didn't try to go tiki torch -> Trump flag -> tiki torch for their spook march. It's a tell.

Do you think they'd get in more or less trouble than they did when they fabricated a dossier full of salacious stories to try and frame a Presidential candidate as a Russian spy so they could spy on his campaign?

Guys I just found out that Trump's DOGE has nothing to do with Shiba Inus...I think I need a minute.

Insurance is a fucking scam as it is run. If you have insurance, you get billed $3000 for a standard procedure like an MRI, insurance covers $2200 and you copay $800.

If you don’t have insurance the hospital bills you $3000 and gives you a $2200 discount (these days for me it’s been with out even asking) and charges you $800 (and lets you pay over time at 0%).

Complete Jewish faggotry.

I’m no fan of insurance, but my sister was born with an ultra rare disease and had to spend the first year of her life in the hospital, with doctors flown in from all over the country and eventually needed a bone marrow transplant from someone in Brazil.
She was fully cured and my family had to pay $20k. The insurance company paid over $4 million dollars. Obviously just one anecdote, but there are instances where it does work. Though it’s quite possible one could argue that the price would have been the same as just getting the opportunity to study her and work on her case was considered a big deal

There's a lot of vaccines that aren't like the ones when we were kids, my fellow Kiwis.

This is what a lot of people don't realize. Ever since the mid 2000's the entire thing has gone insane. It began shortly after the whole "vaccines cause autism" meme which makes me believe Big Pharma used the big ass kissing they got from "experts and health professionals" defending them from that bit of bad science to push ahead and just steamroll any opposition by lumping them together with the people claiming MMR caused autism.

The insurance company paid over $4 million dollars.

Anecdotally the one thing they are really good at is insane payouts for babies. Even insurance company Jews are smart enough to realize the optics on those.

But that’s really what insurance (even government managed insurance) should be for. Unexpected and rare cases.

It should NOT be for routine and everyone care as that just adds overhead.

There's a lot of vaccines that aren't like the ones when we were kids, my fellow Kiwis.

The Polio vaccine? Totally different than the version we lined up in the gym at school for.
The smallpox vaccine? They don't do that anymore.
MMR vaccine? Completely different than the one you got in the gym in your underwear, wondering why the girls had underwear on their chests.

The amount of vaccines they hand out is insane now. It isn't the handful of shots you got in grade school with a booster about 9th grade. No, it's every fucking year.

AND some of the modern polio vaccines require boosters now. Remember the old one? Bam. You won't get polio like that kid in English class in the wheelchair, not today, not forever! Nope, not any more. You have to get boosters all the time.

Check out the modern vaccines compared the ones just twenty or thirty years ago.

Check out how many kids get and in what time period.

Things are different now, my fellow Kiwis.

Exactly. RFK says there's like 72 vaxes now for kids (some the same one spread out over many doses) compared to like 5 when he was a kid.

Some are completely unnecessary, like the one they give minute old babies to protect them from STDs, which was a complete sinecure to the pharma company that couldn't sell it to gays and hookers and needed a market.

Even the "good" one like MMR or polio--is a 4 shot regimin from this particular brand the best way? Has it been tested?

The media will tey to scare everyone into pushing the Senate into rejecting RFK over this, don't believe the hype.

I eliminated seed oils and incorporated more red meats, and cut down on carbs. I refuse to get on that drug carousel where one is given, then another to combat the side effects of the original one, then another... it's ridiculous.

Same. I did that, intermittent fasting, and some light keto keeping my carbs under 50 a day. I lost 30 pounds and counting, lowered my blood sugar to no longer be pre-diabetic, and have stopped taking my blood pressure medication after it went from 140 to 120 with no meds. I did this without Ozempic, just willpower.

I have another health issue my doctors are looking at, and they are talking about the treatment which is a pill. No desire whatsoever to look at root causes, just treat symptoms and get me on a pill forever.

MMR is now MMRV, they lumped in the chicken pox vaccine with measles, mumps, and rubella. Also, almost every single shot is a combination for kiddos these days (sure they're only getting 3 or 4 shots for the visit BUT you're getting between 5 and 8 vaccines in those three or four).

Clinics also get irritated at having to order vaccines that are only one thing because you can request those. Sometimes the doctor tries to convince you to just take what they have and not be a problem.

Tone deaf dems, still on this.

[Jace on ice]

I think it's completely reasonable to question why taking 1-3 vaccines when you're a toddler has somehow morphed into taking a dozen vaccines every six months like a fucking subscription service and if that is indeed necessary why can't anyone produce any peer reviewed medical studies that back up that assertion?

I still feel bad for Texas that they have to suffer the Roganite invasion from California.

They stick to Austin and Dallas enclaves mostly. Some towns have already been hit bad like Waco did after Chip and Joanna Gaines moved there but for the most part the Californians moving in are sticking to the metros.

Culminating in the COVID vax, which they smugly told us didn't even need to be tested, since there was so much science in this one.

Californian expats in Texas vote something like R+20. Texas "natives" (meaning the children of guest workers and illegals that decades of Republican look-the-other-way governance brought in) vote on razor-thing margins leaning slightly D. Those Californians are why Texas isn't a swing state.

Many people blamed 2020 and 2022 performance on liberals moving from blue states to red states, but that’s not what happened. Red states like Texas turn bluer from their own population, and it’s conservatives moving from blue states that keep those states red. Liberals mostly move from blue states move to other blue states, for example, from California to New Mexico. But it doesn’t happen much compared to the rate conservatives move.

I still have my scar. The Wife's is much larger than mine. And that vaccine we got is way too old and is now worth bupkis should we, under some bizarre set of circumstances, be exposed to smallpox (which still exists, if only in CDC labs).

This isn’t true. Smallpox only has one virus for it which comes in two strains. It never successfully evolved into new strains like you see with influenza and the cold that can be used to avoid vaccination. I don’t think the smallpox virus was ever observed to successfully mutate at all.

I actually would argue that smallpox was already on its way to eradication and the vaccine just helped push it along.

It also doesn't "help" that it's mRNA stuff now.

Vaccines played a huge role in eliminating once common diseases, but it's mRNA that is in part causing people to largely distrust vaccines now, that and FUD about vaccines being linked to autism (which in the last 30 years wasn't helped by Andrew Wakefield trying to cook the data so he could get paid)


I took a polio vaccine as a child and that only meant I had to take it once. mRNA slop was rushed in due to the need to restart the economy after everyone locked down due to false data being fed to Britainers based on false data from China.

That being said if I were heading to a place where it was prevalent I would absolutely take malaria and sleeping sickness vaccines. But I'd make sure they weren't mRNA first.

Still no definition for assault weapons I see, hardly a suprise. Also white text on a black background is such a lazy method to get one's point across.

Donald Trump having access to US government supercomputers just to be able to generate insane hyper-realistic shitpost images using AI on a dime is the funniest prospect of his presidency.

"Computer, generate an image of wicked witch Nancy Pelosi and foolish Mitch McConnell tumbling down an unbelievably massive staircase"

I hope this doesn’t come off as pedantic, but this is not due to willpower. You did it with planning and discipline.

Willpower is required when you are around temptation. It’s more draining because it requires energy and focus. What you did was create better conditions and stick with it, which has an element of momentum.

You demonstrated will in making the changes, but through discipline you removed the need for willpower. It became simple maintenance.

I say this because this framing helped me understand how to make similar changes for myself. As men, it’s easy to try to do too much, fail, and think ourselves weak for failing. The negative cycle can only be broken with discipline. Bits of will spent here and there that compound.

I hope you’re able to solve your other issue through your own design rather than some bullshit pharma.
