This is upsetting to me.
I’m barely grasping my spot on the AuADHD space, and now it’s been politicized into a single dimensional disease Republicans are using to virtue signal, like the whole vaccine “debate.”
And I’m in freaking Texas. It’s not as Republican as y’all think, especially in the big metros, but somehow we got Paxton in.
And apparently you guys forgot about previous frivolous lawsuits. Huge media conglomerates, and other institutions, settled with the Trump DoJ because they saw them for what they are: a shake down. “Pay us, or you will find political trouble.”
That’s what’s happening.
The merits do not matter. There is no “fight” here.
J&J is going to settle with Texas and maybe others so MAGA doesn’t persecute them outside the lawsuit.
I feel ya, and feel for ya. Good luck and help it together, looking forward to cleaning up with you all after this Cheeto colored fuck dies.
I mean, that’s not going to change anything. We’re in the misinformation era.
Even some Democrat parts of my family share weird shit they get from cable TV or Facebook or influencers or what have you. Frankly, a disturbing amount of Lemmy.world's front page is clickbait from literal tabloids, too discredited for Wikipedia to even cite, that mods do nothing about because information hygiene only matters when it’s against their ideology.
Meanwhile, my other internet communities have withered away or got swallowed into Discord black holes
Sorry for that mini rant, but as far as I’m concerned the world had shown me attention, not truth, is all that matters. It’s not getting better. And that’s just how things will be from now on.
Hence I don’t like ‘personal’ issues getting dragged into the US two party food fight because it blows out any nuance away, forever. Tylenol will forever be a autism meme no matter how much it’s disproved, especially in the face of small grains of truth.
