Yeah, fuck these blatant fascists. Heinous motherfuckers.
- The best part of bird flu? They can't control it and it affects people equally.
  My favorite part? The Rs don't believe in vaccinations or masks.
  
  great until they decide vaccination and masks are illegal

You know, sometimes being a marginalized person with a modicum of awareness makes you feel like Cassandra- you just know what's coming for your whole life, and the exact details may shift but the pattern is familiar, unsurprising and disappointing. I always knew that the christo-fascist take over of our government would be a lot of stupid, heinous shit, but I didn't expect plague to feature so prominently. I'd honestly thought we were done with that particular horseman.
