Summary
Trump has reportedly slashed funding for the NIH’s Roy Blunt Center for Alzheimer’s Research, leading to layoffs, including its incoming director.
The center, named after former GOP Senator Roy Blunt, was a Republican-backed initiative to advance Alzheimer’s and dementia research. Despite previously championing the program, Republicans have remained silent on the cuts.
Experts warn weakening the center will significantly set back Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s research.
Critics argue the move contradicts past GOP support and lacks justification from either party or scientific leaders.
I’m queer and visibly gender non conforming. I’m not suffering yet but I will be soon because democrats are controlled opposition. Nobody is coming to save us. Liberals are out to brunch. They’re confirming his nominees! Fuck them!
I’m an antizionist jew who’s been anti Israel for 20 fucking years. I don’t own a soda stream for obvious fucking reasons. That genocide isn’t staying over there, dumb liberal. All that tech will be used against me soon. Fuck liberals.
Amazing! Glad to see you’ve fully embraced masochism. Little upset that you’re forcing it on everyone else though.
Here is a question:
How did you imagine withholding your vote would help the Palestinians?
Walk me through what you thought would immediately happen when the democrats lost and how you think the resulting half-decade is going to go than if you’d ‘voted blue no matter who’?
I really want to hear from you on those two points. What did you think the immediate response would be, and what do you think will happen over the next five years as a result of the democratic loss.
For bonus points: explain how these results put the Palestinians in a better place than if Kamala had won.
Explain to me what the point of voting for democrats is when all they’re doing in “opposition” is confirming his nominees.
They won’t even do the bare minimum. Obstruction. They won’t even obstruct. Fuck them and fuck you too. They’re not an opposition party and voting for them would have the same outcome.
They wouldn’t be voting on Trump nominees if Trump didn’t win
The Democrats are a coalition that includes conservative and centrists as well as leftists. Their presence isn’t a reason to hand total control to party that instituted a muslim ban.
Oh clearly, they’d be firing hundreds of thousands of public servants, specifically black and women as DEI. 🙄
I was good and answered your questions. You should answer mine, I’m incredibly curious about what an intelligent person thought and thinks will happen to the Palestinians now that the racist sexist paty has total control, and why you think that outcome wasn’t worth preventing.
Also, a little Wikipedia history lesson for you 🧠🔥
During the Weimar Republic, the left-wing political spectrum was divided between the Social Democratic Party (SPD) and the Communist Party of Germany (KPD). This division significantly weakened the left and indirectly facilitated the rise of the Nazi Party (NSDAP).
The KPD viewed the SPD as “social fascists” and prioritized opposing them over combating the Nazis. The KPD believed that the collapse of the Weimar Republic under Nazi rule would hasten a communist revolution. This ideological stance led them to refuse collaboration with the SPD against the Nazis, even during critical elections and political crises[1][4][6].
This lack of unity between leftist parties created a fragmented opposition, which allowed the Nazis to consolidate power more effectively. The SPD, while supporting democracy, was unable to counter both the far-right and far-left threats simultaneously[1][3].
