Now, in 2026, @NBCNews is recognizing the government’s role in lying to the public about COVID.

The government has been artificially reducing the virus’s burden through manipulation of tracking data

Interestingly, epidemiologists were sounding the alarm 4 years ago.

I think a lot of you assume that many disabled people are covid cautious because we like it or are “crazy” or something, when in actuality, it’s literally because we can’t afford to become more disabled and don’t want to die. Not enough of you truly understand self-preservation.

Gaza’s “reconstruction” fund is being used to remove dead bodies & evidence of war crimes from Gaza.

[Keith @keetmuise]

Just remember, if you’re paying attention to the reality of Covid, aside from the added stress of being cautious, keeping an eye out for illness, avoiding certain social situations, and general adjustment of your daily life, you’re also dealing with a great deal of grief.

If you’re paying attention, you’re processing a lot of loss, because things have changed, and for many, watching this amount of illness and decline is hard to handle.

In the mess of it all, it’s easy to forget that you’re digesting a great deal of loss, anxiety, and pain, so give yourself a break, and remember you’re doing the best you can.

Francesca Albanese warns that Israel is removing the rubble from Gaza to erase evidence of its own genocide:

“Israel is taking the rubble away from Gaza so that evidence will never be properly collected.”

“This is so criminal.”

“This is beyond what we have seen in previous genocides.”

“Imagine the Nazis or the Hutu trying to cover up their crimes in a way that would ensure they could never be held accountable for their extermination and genocide.”

“This is where we are.”

“And it’s crazy that impunity is granted, basically, from everywhere.”

[Andrey X @the_andrey_x]

I was shot at with live ammunition for the first time in my life today.

This is the shooter. Nothing will happen to him.

[Tom London @TomLondon6]

WHERE are the mainstream journalists? Too many are simply recycling Israeli propaganda

BREAKING:

Israel is dropping white phosphorus on Ali al-Taher in South Lebanon.

On forests and hills.
On nearby civilian areas.

This is a war crime.

[CODEPINK @codepink]

There's nothing uglier than occupation and genocide.

[liam cunningham @liamcunningham1]

It’s not your child so why speak up.
Must be nice to not care enough to express revulsion at this.
It will continue as long as people are silent.
Silence is complicity.
