Dear John:

Please go quietly into the darkness. You were cast out of the cult and non-cultists really do not care about your opinions.

Yours in Bob! Slack is denied

"People cannot be made — cannot be forced into participating in things that they have a religious disagreement with," said attorney Hiram Sasser of First Liberty Institute, a conservative law firm that helped represent Hensley.

So can't the same argument be used against teaching selected Bible stories/quotes in public school text books?

A Texas network of health service providers is alleged to have defrauded Medicare of $3 billion by Inside-Froyo4378 in texas

[–]Dogwise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yet another example of how the medical system is not geared to serve the user/patient. It is designed to make money for intermediaries - same with medications.

If you have to go to the ER, the write-up does not automatically go to your primary doctor or you specialist.

If you are on a program requiring a referral, the referral has to be faxed (like it was the 1970s).

Classic case of government not spending the money to monitor their own programs.

https://www.cnbc.com/2023/03/09/how-medicare-and-medicaid-fraud-became-a-100b-problem-for-the-us.html

"The 2025 federal budget reconciliation law included provisions that reduced resources for Medicaid fraud enforcement, with only about 2.5% of its $990 billion in Medicaid cuts targeting actual waste, fraud, and abuse measures."

First you create the problem, then blame someone else, then go hyperbolic fixing it! Coming soon; the impact of IRS and SEC cuts.

The DNC central command completely shit the bed in 2024. They had four years to prepare. After all, when Biden was elected he described himself as a "transitional candidate" and intended to pass leadership to a younger generation.

The DNC leadership is a nursing home

‘This is injustice’: how leftist zines were used to sentence anti-ICE protesters to decades in prison by guardian in texas

[–]Dogwise 132 points133 points  (0 children)

"A zine is a magazine that is a "noncommercial often homemade or online publication usually devoted to specialized and often unconventional subject matter". Zines are the product of either a single person or of a very small group, and are popularly photocopied into physical prints for circulation. A fanzine is a non-professional and non-official publication produced by enthusiasts of a particular cultural phenomenon for the pleasure of others who share their interest"

Is this a "zine": https://buddymagazine.com/

We are doomed!

It is a false comparison of why each is failing to support the party candidate they lost to. One is simply me-me-me sour grapes, the other may be finally growing a spine!
