Vice President JD Vance’s Bluesky account was suspended within minutes of him joining the platform. His posts criticized medical treatments for transgender youth and claimed pharmaceutical influence over healthcare decisions.

BIG PHARMA MAKIN THE KIDS CUT THEY DICKS OFF

god republicans are stupid. So fucking stupid.

Remember, the likes of Vance aren't stupid, they know the shit they say isn't real but it riles their base up and creates enough anger that their base will ignore all the shit the republicans get up to.

More than that, it causes a knee jerk reaction from many liberals as well, and they end up defending a practice that is relevant to about 1% of voters, and isn't that important to a very significant number of voters. So Ds waste a LOT of time defending a subject that isn't very important to most people, instead of the issues they should be focused on, which will attract voters, like Medicare 4 All, or Student Loan Reform, etc.

Yeah, Big Pharma is happy to fuck me in lots of ways, but the $20/month (without insurance even!) on my T shots ain’t it.

But big religion doing it is OK, it’s just the tip.

I always hated when I went to the school nurse for a bruised knee and got estrogen instead of having the bruise disinfected

My parents got really mad the day I came home as a girl. They were pissed! Made me go back to school the next day and get my penis re-installed.

Maybe your school nurse should swing by D.C. and reinstall some backbones.

That's would be a fresh install, lots of structural work needs to be done so they don't disappear.
