@gaughen ๐คฃ you can scarcely even get a libertarian in the libertarian party, let alone get one with any real power. Violent revolution has been done before. It lead to the biggest government the world has ever known... So no thanks.
@HannahDCox To be fair, society's problems begin and end in the home. Not the floors of Congress. What goes on there is just another reflection of what happens in the home.
@x3_grumpy@US_FDA That's exactly my point ya moron. The whole thing rests on trust in these people, and they had no moral issues with hooking everyone on opioids to make money... Duhhhhhhh
@x3_grumpy@US_FDA And you honestly sit there like "duhhhh, ya man, the thing is opioids are different from vaccines" ๐ at what point do you say "nope. these people have already burned us once, I have sit here and try to figure out what is safe because they can't be trusted to do their jobs, and
@x3_grumpy@US_FDA Sit back and collect my tax dollars? I'm not supposed to have to look into how vaccines are made, and what is in them, and what tests have they run... That is not my job, it's their's... Except they've shown their willingness to dick over our population to make money...
@x3_grumpy@US_FDA You see, I make frosting for a living. It is far out of my area of expertise to determine if a vaccine or pill is safe or not. That is the role of people like the FDA. If I am expected to know about vaccines, know about opioids, etc. then what exactly does the FDA do here?
@x3_grumpy@US_FDA No, but you have the same forces in play that lead to the same moral hazards that took place with the opioids... So, sorry about your luck. U don't get to violate trust, not earj it back, kick your feet up and say "but it's different", and expect everyone to trust you.
@x3_grumpy@US_FDA Yea, but the same incentives are in place for lies... Lies coming from the same organizations... So I'm not convinced... My trust is not earned back here lol
@x3_grumpy@US_FDA Also like to say that if we were talking about some private company, there is no way in hell you'd come with that weak arse comment...
