Yup. It's not about the "gays vs the straights" or the "left vs the right" or the Romulans vs The Federation. It's about the rich vs everybody else. It's a class war. It always has been and the rich use the media they own to make you think it's a culture war. To keep you fighting with other so you won't figure out where the REAL source of your pain comes from.

Dear FBI,
- Welcome to Lemmy.
- If you're looking for a list of suspects, you can start by investigating all of UHC's denied claims that resulted in a death. Shouldn't take you more than a decade or so.
"The good of the people" is a noble enough goal. Unfortunately, the people in charge of these movements are people who deliberately seek power, and for the most part, those people are vain greedy, brutal, a-holes.
The purpose of language is to reveal and convey meaning and thought. Euphemisms and euphemistic language are designed to control how you talk about certain subjects and consequently, how you think about them. People who try to control how you think NEVER have anyone's "best interests" in mind but their own.
Don't let other people tell you how to manage your own head.

But he reacts to Rudolph as if his skull had burst into flames.
"We never expected that the guy who told us to fight Covid by eating horse paste and shoving UV lights up our butts wouldn't know a damn thing about science."
