Immersive_Matthew , in Robert F. Kennedy Jr. condemned over false claims that COVID-19 was "ethnically targeted"

Not my graph, but his comment reminded me of it so I went and found it on Reddit to share. https://i.imgur.com/LKeglxo.jpg

InverseParallax ,

I would be amazed if they weren’t hit harder, many orthodox jews live in dense communities and there is a genetic disposition to immunodeficiency disorders.

No source?

The big error bars on everything but Christian raises an eyebrow.

taiyang , in California firefighters battle several wildfires in Riverside County amid extreme heat

While driving down to OC earlier today, my wife commented how dry things looked along the mountains, saying how it might be a bad wildfire season.

I said it’ll probably be even worse in a few months but I guess I was off by a little (although I bet it’ll be hell in October/November when things get real dry).

Yeah, it's definitely going to be bad this year. The big rainstorms we got this winter caused a lot of growth, and anything east of the Bay Area is already dry up here in the north - had a couple of small local blazes already. The one saving grace is that we lucked out on cooler weather and late rain, but it's clear that our luck at climate roulette is beginning to turn.

taiyang ,

Not going to lie, I take great guilty pleasure telling friends in other states about how it’s 78 degrees here by the coast. Especially the ones who make fun of California being so hot. But yeah, I’ve got my air filters ready…

Spoiler alert: He does.

Throw his ass in jail.

Usually if they don’t announce his termination, he eas reassigned until things blow over.

poquito_cabeza , in A Trooper Issued More than 1,000 Fake Tickets. Connecticut Police Won’t Say Whether He Still Has a Job

He probably got a promotion.

radialmonster , in How America fell out of love with ice cream

ZephyrXero , in Donald Trump dominates Turning Point USA straw poll

I’ve been telling people it’s gonna Biden vs Trump in 2024 unless he gets put in jail. But I really don’t want to be right

zombuey OP ,

whats annoying is news regarding Trump gets downvoted here even if its center or left leaning which is really bad thats how you get echo chambers. people need to stop downvoting shit just because they don’t like the news.

ZephyrXero ,

100%. I’m as sick of hearing about him as anyone else, but we’ve got to stay informed on what he’s up to unfortunately

4am ,
@4am@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, agreed. I hate the fucker with a passion but we can’t just turn a blind eye or he’ll be ruling us before we know it. Then we’ll never escape.

@Barns@lemmy.world avatar

Unfortunately, not only are you going to be right but Trump will most likely win… Biden hasn’t done anything meaningful enough to sway center leaning uninformed average Joes to the left

graphite ,

center leaning uninformed average Joes

That’s quite a generalization

InverseParallax ,

This will be controversial but I hope so.

The only reason we got Lincoln was because the know-nothing party imploded into their own insane conspiracy black hole.

We need the GOP to consume themselves so a sane replacement can grow out of the ashes.

I read this story just to laugh at this loser some more. Meh. Not worth it. He’s just a stupid, boring asshole. (I’m not complaining about your decision to post the story, OP. I’m just complaining about the idiot the story is about.)

teft , in Biden's election war chest trails Trump's in size, filings show

On the plus side Biden doesn’t have to split his between his presidential campaign and a legal defense fund.

zombuey OP ,

I’m not positive but from the way they described it in the article I think this money is seperate from what could be spent on legal fees. But with Trump who really knows. Legality of actions never seems to really stop him.

GlitzyArmrest ,
@GlitzyArmrest@lemmy.world avatar

He has already been caught using campaign funds for legal defense in the past IIRC

JustCopyingOthers ,

AIUI the small print during donation allows for skimming a fraction of the donation away from the campaign to an organisation associated with his court cases.

Arotrios , in Robert F. Kennedy Jr. condemned over false claims that COVID-19 was "ethnically targeted"
@Arotrios@kbin.social avatar

Keep calling out this deranged motherfucker. He's responsible for countless deaths:

During the pandemic, Kennedy has become a near-ubiquitous source of false information about COVID-19 and vaccines. Earlier this year, Kennedy was named one of the “Disinformation Dozen” by the Center for Countering Digital Hate, which says he and the Children’s Health Defense website are among the top spreaders of false information about vaccines online.

....note that the Children's Heath Defense organization is Kennedy's personal charity, and...

The AP found links to Children’s Health Defense articles all over Facebook. While many were shared as posts on the pages of fellow anti-vaccine activists, many more could be found in the comments sections on pages that people turn to for reliable information, including official government Facebook pages in all 50 states, and in health departments in nearly every state.
“The vaccine was not created to save us all from a pandemic. The pandemic was created to get us to take the vaccine and more,” one person wrote in February below a North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services Facebook post.
Then, they linked to a January Children’s Health Defense article that claimed 329 deaths following the COVID-19 shot had been reported to VAERS, a federal vaccine safety surveillance system that has been misused by anti-vaccine activists.
“Every Friday, the true American hero Robert F Kennedy Jr. pulls the data from the VAERS report. Here is the latest up until 1/22,” the commenter wrote. Another user replied that the comment had been reported for dishonesty, but it was still up 10 months later.

...as a result:

Since January, Children’s Health Defense’s COVID-19 vaccine-related posts were shared more frequently on Twitter than links to vaccine content on mainstream sites including CNN, Fox News, NPR and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, according to Indiana University’s Observatory on Social Media, which tracks COVID-19 vaccine-related content on Twitter. In some weeks, it found, CHD COVID-19 vaccine content was shared more often than that of The New York Times and The Washington Post.

ArugulaZ ,

Just out of curiosity, there wouldn't happen to be a Sirhan Sirhan Jr., would there...?

@Arotrios@kbin.social avatar

You know what's really weird? RFK supported Sirhan Sirhan's release - went against his entire family to do so too. I think the guy has some dark daddy issues.

ArugulaZ ,

Dude's got more issues than National Geographic. And is about as useful as post-Fox National Geographic.

zombuey OP , in Sony and Microsoft agree Call of Duty stays on PlayStation

Whats hilarious to me is that Microsoft wouldn’t have done this in the first place lol. They have been porting their own traditionally exclusive titles to PC.
