That moment when you actually look at a communities feed and realize every post in it is political in nature.

Democratic Party is out of touch with its base. They’ve done more to get drumph elected both times. Horrible neoliberal leadership, I blame them

As a scientist who works with all kinds of things humans ingest, I am very scared of this man and the deregulations he’ll bring. But you know, fuck science and education, cuz ‘Merica.

Side note, how do we reach people who reject science? I always thought education was the path forward, but they seem to be attacking that route too. Are we doomed to live in a world of conspiracy theories and misinformation?

Edit: The ACS is offering a course on “How to Navigate Trust in Science Conversations” I guess I’ll start here. It’s not the quick answer I’m looking for, but I guess it’s a start. I think it’s free for non-ACS members if anyone is interested.

By comparing people to these slurs, you enforce societal norms that indicate that the said group has less value in society.

Since humans are social creatures by nature, you are essentially dehumanizing an entire class/group of people because you can’t come up with something more clever to say.

To err is human, we all make mistakes, intelligence/sight/etc. has nothing to do with it.

“Sustainable”

Coffee can, single piece of packaging for months on end.

Vs.

K-cups, paper, dyes, increased packaging volumes, increased energy in production, increased raw materials, increased trips to the store to purchase more, 6 month shelf life. Sustainable /s

Well, I feel safe knowing that the police are as wise as a child trying to hide their report card from their parents. Our public safety is in good hands!

A million dollars is hardly enough. The lawsuit should be for the dollar amount of his lifetime worth of gainful employment. Anything less is despicable and wrong.
