I have no idea if he used protective gear when applying it, which certainly could have increased his exposure. I would love to blame Monsanto, but most of the family carry the risk genes for this cancer too, and as yet his children are cancer free. Their babies though, not so much
A lot of the time you have to look at what isn't said.
Like: If they say "I have two innocent neighbors" and someone else said the person below them has two innocent neighbors, you can often see that there's an overlap in criminals.
Wyoming is next to a couple other states with significant Native American populations. The thing about vaccines is there's a lot of resistance in those populations, especially if it's white people administering them. Some of that crowd immunity we expect to have really needs to protect them too, and without it, they will be devastated by white people's policies again.
That's a very simplified statement without much cultural context, but I think it's so painful to blame the ~500k people in one large, mostly rural, largely uneducated state for this when much denser voting populations did too
In the 00s my uncle was in a position where Monsanto was suing him for not holding up his end of the contract, because he had a bad crop year. Anyway, my grandparents bailed him out by financing a lawyer who settled for him, and it really didn't fix the problem at all. He still lost his farm, my grandparents were no longer wealthy because they kept trying to help him, and the uncle died a couple years later to cancer (probably driven by stress). They bailed him out because they were afraid he'd kill himself over the farm, and it took him out anyway
Thank you for being more eloquent with your reply than I was able to be. That purity test comment made me see red. Where else are disenfranchised groups to go, but to the left? How can we be represented if the only place we can turn refuses to represent us?
To be fair, most Americans don't pay any attention to Canadian politics (or any other country tbh). So Doug's jacked up policies go in one ear and out the other because they very broadly don't affect Americans.
I was speaking with an older lady about who could be as energizing for the left as Bernie for the next election, I said AOC and maybe Jasmine Crockett on the same ticket. (which is a pipe dream, I'm sure)
Anyway, she said Gavin Newsom, and didn't believe me when I said he's a centrist. And I couldn't understand why she even felt he's a leftist. He must have some good pr somewhere that I'm not looking lol
Yeah, we went from the first flight to people on the moon in only 66 years. So there's no real reason to cut into record profits now, they'll have reversing it figured out by the time the collapse happens!
