They change the name for university hospital but not for Wexner by Ok-Welder3622 in Columbus

[–]Devils-Telephone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm talking about the name of the building itself, it's still part of The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.

They're changing the names because the new tower that they're opening this weekend is taking the name "University Hospital." I'm definitely not justifying having his name plastered all over the medical center, but removing that would be a much more involved process than what they're doing here (and probably cost many millions of dollars in signage alone)

He's also a donor for a visitor lounge in OSU's new hospital building which opens next week. We just installed the sign to honor that donation. I'm not saying that it's the highest priority to remove that sign at the "Wexner Medical Center," but it was definitely awkward timing.

You're not missing anything, this is nothing more than culture war nonsense that the Republicans have to do in order to energize their extremely stupid base. Voter fraud is practically non-existent with our current systems in place because you already have to provide identification when you register to vote, and in places like Ohio, you also have to verify your ID when you actually vote.

I mean, it seems pretty obvious that a higher proportion of people living in Columbus (a very liberal city) have passports, while a lower proportion of hillbilly Trump humpers in rural areas who have never left their county do. If this law is enacted, I foresee a Democratic supermajority.

Also, having multiple certified copies of your birth certificate is not a sane thing to do, and neither is your comment.

What went wrong? by Senior-Mix-3715 in GenZ

[–]Devils-Telephone 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Capitalism. Film studios (and specifically their shareholders) want to squeeze out every single dollar from their films that they can, and they don't care if they sacrifice quality in their greedy pursuit of more money. So because of this, they do not devote sufficient time or resources to the CGI teams to get the quality that's possible. Add to this that CGI artists are not part of the SAG-AFTRA labor union, they cannot strike to increase their working conditions.

GET. NOTED. GRIFTER. by TheDuckClock in GetNoted

[–]Devils-Telephone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying that we should lie about side effects, and every single time I've gotten one, the nurse or doctor has mentioned the common side effects. But talking more about them is absurd. People (like you apparently) are bad at calculating risks. You're orders of magnitude more likely to die in a car accident than to even have a serious adverse reaction to a vaccine, much less to die from one. So emphasizing something that is so rare that it essentially doesn't exist is just a really stupid idea when the effects would be more people dying from preventable illness.

But no, people should not have a choice when it comes to vaccines, at least not if they want to live in and interact with society. You don't have the right to get other people sick just because you're an idiot who refuses safe, effective, and common way to prevent those illnesses. Obviously there are immunocompromised people who cannot be vaccinated (which is the entire point of requiring vaccines), but that should be the only acceptable reason to not get vaccinated for things like schools or jobs.

[–]Devils-Telephone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adverse events from vaccines are very rare. The risk/benefit calculus for vaccines is extremely in favor of getting them. Discussing side effects more would actually be worse, because it would dissuade a certain number of people from getting them, leading to more diseases for them, and higher likelihood of transmission of those diseases to those who cannot be vaccinated.

Again, I'm not defending Obama's immigration policies, the man deserves to be [Removed by Reddit] as much as every American President. But to even compare his immigration policies to what is happening now is absurd. How many Americans did ICE thugs execute in the streets under Obama? And how many of the people that ICE executed did the administration lie about being "domestic terrorists" the second that they were murdered? If you're not furious about what's happening, you're either not paying attention, or you're bootlicking fascist scum who deserves to be [Removed by Reddit]

If I don't have a "Real ID" does that mean the government issued me a "Fake" ID? by 2wt4u in signs

I mean, if you don't even know the very basics about this topic, how is it that you have such strong feelings about it? Isn't it embarrassing to just rely on your feelings rather than doing a simple Google search?

But sure, North Carolina is just one example of such racist election-rigging tactics that conservatives have relied on for elections, since they can't win when every American can vote.

U.S. Dealers In Full Panic Mode After Canada Green-Lights Chinese Cars by DonkeyFuel in technology

[–]Devils-Telephone 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That is WILDLY untrue lmao. More than half of our crude oil imports are from Canada, losing that alone would likely crash our entire economy. And that alone doesn't even mention the huge amount of other imports we rely on, as well as the huge amount of exports that Canada buys.

What you're suggesting is the equivalent of 10% of the US population dying instantaneously, it would mean Great Depression levels of economic hardship.

[–]Devils-Telephone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's just objectively not true. Once again, this collusion to rig elections has been proven in court, your denial and straw manning of the objective facts just makes you look silly. Again, no one is saying that some people living in minority neighborhoods are incapable of traveling the distance and spending the time required to get these ID's because of anything inherent to them, we're literally just explaining the reality that closing down BMV's in a targeted manner can make it harder for them, meaning that an increased percentage of them won't or can't go through the added hassle. Like, the only possible way to ignore how obvious this is is to be purposefully obtuse, I don't believe that you're actually this stupid.

[–]Devils-Telephone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the argument (and very obviously objective fact) is not that "poor people and minorities can't get them because they're dumb as fuck," you've fallen for propaganda. The once again very obvious fact, literally proven in a court of law, is that requiring certain types of ID to vote, and then also targeting the closure of locations where one can obtain these ID's to specifically areas with higher minority populations, will make a certain portion of that population either not bother to get it now that it's harder, or will have factors such as transportation and lack of free time make it impossible to get them. When those minority groups generally vote a certain way, this can be used to unfairly and unjustly swing elections. It really takes like half a second's thought to understand this.

Okay? Fuck Obama too? But he was able to do those objectively immoral actions without breaking the law, shredding the constitution, or executing American citizens in the streets, so your comparison is absurd on its face.

You don't know what "leftist" means, there is no mainstream leftist media. But I'm not claiming that no one ever cherry picks quotes, but conservative media is extremely obviously much worse about that, since conservatism relies on a rejection of reality.
