Would disabled people also be considered to be part of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion? Don't we offer support for autistic and neuro-divergant individuals in the work place?

The sad thing is, as health in America falls further by the way side, because it hasn't been good for a long time (see the obesity chart below), than more people will become excluded under this anti-DEI policy. If you have any needs or support requirements then they will be considered a weakness against your 'merit'.

Btw, we only know this because the CDC published it. Hope that doesn't stop happening 😬

The actions taken by this government seem to come from philosophies of individualism such as comparing and judging the 'merit' of two or more people, or the desire to shut down supportive welfare services creating an 'each man for himself' type environment. This reveals the mind of the people behind the policy who clearly prioritise their own individual needs and desires over others, and to justify it, they want everyone else to do the same.

But being that small minded is not possible for some. Some people cant help but worry about the welfare of the whole planet, everyone on it and future generations.

A good leader never stops wondering if all the needs of their people are being met. A wide sense and awareness of humanity is needed that extends beyond the bounds of the individual's genetic or cultural sphere.

Even Nationalism is no longer viable because we have global issues like climate change. An 'America first' attitude is an Earth last attitude. I know geography is hard, bear with me, but Earth is an important ally for national security! 😉

Fears? How about "knows" it will be set back. Fuck this motherfucking timeline. Get me off! Seriously, someone please get me off so I can feel relieved.

RFK's voice is concerning, I've heard injecting bleach is good for that.

Just buckets of it. You really gotta go to town. Scientists hate when I say this, RFK, so they're probably just huge pussies who can't take it like you can.

I’m am so fucking furious that Harris got 6 million less votes than Biden.

Sure, she was a terrible candidate, but how in the world did Trump not motivate people to vote for her?

Those 6 million people had to be afraid of what was coming, right? I thought Trump motivated people to vote for Biden. I sure as shit didn’t vote for him with any enthusiasm. I was personally terrified that he’d have a mental decline and hand everything back to Trump, and, well, that’s exactly what happened.

It all just blows my mind.

Maybe after the world burns down and the people of the future build the next Rome, they’ll use some examples from all of this.

I doubt it though. They’d get it perfect and some cult would spring up and shoot it to shit again. I swear it’s hard not to be a nihilist when humanity just goes in circles. For every 100 decent people there’s one monster who crushes them all because he never thinks about what other people might go through. He only thinks about himself and everyone else pays for it.

I’m also angry as shit that all of the people who stormed the capitol are just off the hook. A few days before they were pardoned my uncle was saying, “He won’t pardon them all. They’ll look at it case by case.” I said, “ok, when he pardons them all I hope that you hear what I’m saying when I say his ego is bigger than his interest in making our country better. I would bet my balls on the fact that it will be a blanket pardon.”

“We’ll, they’ve got this woman who was talking about looking case by case on Fox the other day…”

“They’re lying. He’ll pardon them all.” I said.

He and I will be working together this week. I bet he justifies it. Maybe not, but it’s too late now anyway. The damage is done, is being done, and will not stand a chance of being undone in my lifetime.

Sorry for this. My brain just hurts. I worry for all of these people who will have their lives ripped apart. It just sucks.

RFK looks like he's made from cancer

Yes, well what do you expect from people who think it's a disease that can be cured (often with quack shit like bleach)?

I understand that parents find parenting an autistic child difficult. I have a high-functioning autistic child and that is difficult enough.

But they are just giving these people false hope. Autism can't be cured, just like many other ways people can be disabled. No one seems to be talking about curing Down's Syndrome.

A lot of this shit comes straight from Autism Speaks, by the way.

Yep. And those fears are founded.

I don't understand why someone rich like Brainworms even wants to meddle with our health system. Not only does he have no qualifications, but doesn't he have better ways to spend his time?

Do y'all remember when "HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy" would have been a punchline?

That’s the plan! Roll it back to 1900

What a crappy headline!! "WOULD set back"?!?!

As if there was any doubt he will set back that progress.
