“Cost benefit analysis” is how we got here. The cold logic of neoliberalism reckoned that the cost of preserving life by following public health guidelines was too steep, so the powers that be decided we should “let ‘er rip” survival of the fittest style #COVID19usa

@RagingBuddhist @drseanmullen @oxbits I think we’re actually on the same page tbh. In my mind that quote was an assertion of my unwillingness to play their stupid game & get overwhelmed. Focus, logic & factual analysis ftw

Even The Onion has been co-opted by the oligarchy
This only became legal in 2024, when a bunch of billionaires and and private equity people sponsored London Breed's Prop E, to give police free rein over surveillance and pursuits. One of them was Jeff Lawson, the new billionaire owner of The Onion.
