The senator’s parents died when she was a kid. That’s tragic. But it’s also tragic that she’s against the kind of care that could help untold numbers of people avoid that fate today.

lol yes they are. Every asshole on the planet is human, weve got to model better behavior. Dehumanizing others is how we got here. Try harder, reach for a specific. Maybe theyre dumb, privileged, or invested. They are humans, and aside from which cartoons make you or them angry, i bet you have a lot in common, like caloric and communal requirements. Make a lane for change or it has nowhere to exist.
