In case you hadn't been following this disturbing sequence of events, here's a recap:

RFK Jr wanted to fund a randomized trial, run by Danes, involving newborn babies in Guinea-Bissau

Ethicists across the world, including in Nigeria, Cameroon, & Ethiopia, were horrified: it's an unethical study
RFK Jr is funding a grotesquely unethical study on newborn babies in Guinea-Bissau; ethicists, pediatricians, clinical trial experts, & infectious disease experts are calling this horrific trial The New Tuskegee.

It is unethical to withhold a life saving intervention from half of newborns FFS.
The CDC just re-opened a previously shelved study that would withhold the hepatitis B vaccine from children in Guinea-Bissau, despite decades of evidence showing it is safe and effective.

This is a violation of human rights, using “science” to harm some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

The "SI" thing is was intended to provoke this exact sort of sniveling response from the courtiers, to train the oligarchs to humiliate themselves for Trump so they'll do it again later when it really matters.
BAIER: The president says 'SI.' Are you into SI or AI?

BEZOS: I do like SI, because 'artificial' is not a very flattering thing. Like, nobody wants an artificial sweetener, artificial flavoring.

"No one is too small to make a difference."
- Greta Thunberg.

Children's educators are activists. Activists are those who take strong, direct action to support or oppose change. Children's educators support, believe in children. Children make a difference, they are capable of significant change.

Oh fucking hell.

This reminds me.

One of these monstrosities turned onto my road today and I felt a wave a visceral disgust and anger.

Pretty sure he was booming too.

Because of course a "Everybody look at me" guy would be driving one.

I'm just gonna bookmark this for future reference when Dem pundits complain about how the party has trouble communicating its message to voters.

The reason you keep running into trouble with your branding isn't campus radicals. The reason is that your opponents purchased all the media outlets.
