It's pretty clear that Trump's stance toward the slaughter of Ukrainians has been one of quiet complicity.

Car culture permeates North America to such a degree that people tie it to their very identity

It's really hard for me to imagine us moving away from it but it's very clear it's toxic in every way it touches our lives.

From our dependence on Russian oil, to the climate impact of hydrocarbons, to the exhaust fumes being linked to childhood asthma, to tire particulates being a huge source of microplastics, to the enormous tax subsidies required to even make them viable, to the ways it has shaped our society to be more isolated.

I truly fucking hate cars.

It's always appalling to me how quickly everyone stopped taking about the horrible treatment of Uyghur Muslims in China.

Then to pile on with threats, extortion and blackmail, On Canadian soil no less.

For how far China has come socially it still has a long way to go.

TL;DR:

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced plans to bar government-funded scientists from publishing in several government funded medical journals accusing them of being "corrupt" and controlled by Big Pharma. Instead, he proposed creating HHS-run "in-house" journals, claiming they would become the new gold standard for medical research.

This move risks turning U.S. medical research into a political tool, eroding trust, accelerating the decline of American science and creating an eminent threat to the American healthcare system.
