It’s not the same logic it al

“Vitamin C is good for you - TAKE ALL THE VITAMIN C!”

“Vaccines are good for you - COLLECT THEM LIKE POKEMON!”

Did they recommend getting non-evidence-based repeat vaccinations?

Yes: “Start now, getting everything that you can reasonably afford, as quickly as you can”

That’s a waste of money and resources if you don’t need boosters.

But he said he was going to make everything better. There was literally no way of knowing that he wouldn’t.

This is the same logic people like Kennedy use. Talk to your doctor about whether this would be helpful or effective. Don’t just go get vaccines because “if one is good two must be better!”

Did Trump tell them how terrible the Atlantic is though?

Man, this idiot didn’t deserve the amount of thought you put into this reply. 😂

This is how you get people to stop showing up to their hearings.

Purposefully getting arrested does nothing except take you out of the fight, and discourages.others.

And that’s all that non-organized protest will ever achieve. People are asking individuals to “stand up” like it would accomplish anything and all it would likely do is destroy some rando’s career or end with them in legal trouble that they can’t afford.

And what do you want non-americans to do… exactly?

The same thing you’re asking Americans to do. You can (still for now) come to the US and do whatever it is you think “they” should be doing.

Or is that too much of an ask for you but not for some guy who’s been working in the forest service for 15 years?

It’s so easy to be an armchair quarterback. These civil servants are normal people. They’re not organized. They have families they need to feed. And all the Europeans are coming in here calling them cowards because they won’t risk their lives in a futile effort to make a difference?

For which you were paid I presume. I don’t have much respect for people in the military - most I’ve known are near sociopaths concerned more about pay grades than ideals. You putting your job on the line for anyone else? Getting arrested?

Also, “Something you wouldn’t do either” is a very weird presumption to make given that you don’t know anything about me or what I’d do.

And what have you done?

I’m sorry, what personal risk have you taken to stop Trump? You’re demanding that ordinary people put their lives and careers on the line but have you done so yourself? Did I miss an article where you chained yourself to the Whitehouse fence or something?

You’re criticizing ordinary people for not putting their lives on the line. Something you wouldn’t do either. There’s your critique - take it or leave it (my guess would be “leave it”).

But there’s not much for the public to do, at this point.

Bullshit. Go chain yourself to a fence at the Whitehouse. Get arrested for it. Or… Are you saying it’s not worth the risk? The risk you’re asking others to take?

Sounds like you’re not a fan of criticism either. Perhaps you should consider the plank in your own eye?

How convenient and easy for you to criticize then.

Several Silicon Valley executives I spoke to — some of whom requested anonymity for fear of retribution — echoed this sense of disappointment

Things are fucked up when private citizens criticize the government anonymously due to “fear of retribution”.

Expansion is only profitable if there are enough customers to justify the infrastructure costs and people are willing to pay the costs for it.

I’m sorry, what personal risk have you taken to stop Trump? You’re demanding that ordinary people put their lives and careers on the line but have you done so yourself? Did I miss an article where you chained yourself to the Whitehouse fence or something?

But it’s okay. An investigation has been done and none of the people in the chat was Hillary Clinton.

The FBI has done bad things. Therefore I can claim the FBI did and does anything I want without evidence.
