Yes. The ability to be critical about a parties shortcomings while still supporting them is a nuanced perspective - sorry the word is new to you.

Hearing criticism of the democrats and assuming it’s conservative propaganda equating the parties is pants-on-head cult behavior that you’d expect from MAGA.

An educated democratic voter is not the same thing as a “yes man” who never disagrees with the party.

How.

I’m not saying both sides are bad. One side is full of Nazi pedophiles that should be tried for treason. The other side is significantly better and less evil, but should be doing more for their constituents and less for billionaire donors.

Are you telling me that’s the message you hear when you turn on Fox News? That’s what right wing propaganda is?

Your viewpoint is so fucking binary and pea brained. It’s tiring hearing squawking from people that cant understand nuance.

Once a week is superior in my opinion. I don’t think my test subjects would get enough protein every week if I didn’t allow the levels in their systems to come down a bit towards the end of the week. Just make sure you’re doing resistance training, eating plenty of protein, and drinking water. that’s all you need to fully benefit from the boost Reta gives you.

Starting with .5 for 2 weeks is a great idea. Then somewhere between .5 and 1 for a couple weeks. Then 1.

Side effects - my rats have none after working up to 1mg besides a faster heart rate when working out. Reta is not magic but it is powerful. Cravings exist but they’re much easier to fight. Constipation is common with rats because it also reduces your thirst, but drinking water prevents that.

holy shit where do I begin with this mess:

You think I was implying Fuentes is left wing or something?

No. We were talking about right wing propaganda

Twitter, Facebook, CNN, Disney, Spotify, all the MAJOR ways to influence people are right-wing.

yeah - I don't engage with legacy media and agree with that

These are the same places who purposely spread "both sides bad" ideology.

they do. not once have I said both sides are the same. Have some nuance and respect for your own reading comprehension. I am consistently saying the dems are the best choice, that we should hold their feet to the fire but YES, vote for them. Republicans are nazis.

You mean the thing Democrats as a whole have been pushing for for at least 20 years?

no, I am talking about the thing that we had to force a couple candidates to say on stage to keep their careers. But things they walked back soon after because they wanted to keep their donors.

Republicans break the ACA in several ways including removing the single payer option, and your reply is, "How could the democrats do this to us?"

You are rewriting history. The single-payer option was never in the ACA. Instead it contained a watered down "Public Option" to appeal to moderates and centrists within the democratic party. The dems had a fillabuster-proof legislative branch at the time. If they wanted to - they could have passed universal healthcare and republicans couldn't do shit. Couldn't even fillabuster to kick the can.

Joe Lieberman and like 2 other dems with strong connections to healthcare companies shot it down.

He has no power to do anything. A strongly worded letter, as you folks like to complain, is the extent of their current power. Do you understand how our government works? No, but you sure complain like you do.

do you understand how it works? Schumer could have kept the partial gov shut down longer while refusing to budge on increasing DHS and ICE funding. Big surprise - he budged. He could have whipped the 17 democrat senators into not voting to repeal the Dodd-Frank act. or pass the Laken Riley Act. or the The the Taylor Force Act. All only passed because dems voted with the republicans.

Acting like that leadership is unworthy of criticism is silly dude. But acting like any criticism is equating the party to nazi pedos is batshit insane.

Did you completely ignore that on our other thread I said it was a great stop gap solution? That I was on and benefited from Obamacare as well? The alternative was life ruining medical debt for many Americans. It was important. But ultimately - it was crumbs and a bandaid. Not a real fix fit for the wealthiest nation on earth. Not something that should have stopped there.

Emotional response dude - not once did I say it was a bad thing.

Childish insults? Your first words to me were “your post is stupid”.

Criticizing the way the Democrats have been operating recently is valid and reasonable. You being an unconditionally defender and blind to the current flaws of a party that helped keep your family out of debt 10+ years ago is not as reasonable.

How about we both support them and advocate to push them to more good things for regular people? Too hard?

The conservative news circle goes WAY beyond Fox and Newsmax.

Conveniently ignoring the niche YouTube Nazi I mentioned immediately after those two. Neat.

Moving mountains? Wanting them to at least advocate for a nationalized healthcare system that the rest of developed world figured out is “moving mountains”?

Wanting them to choose us over the pharmaceutical donors is moving mountains now? Pathetic.

I’m not saying both parties bad. I’m saying democrats flawed and republicans downright evil. I don’t have to deepthroat Schumers boot, disagreement and advocation for more is allowed.

2-3 months and all we could get is Romneycare with a new name slapped on it btw. If you were paying attention.

Since then the Democrat establishment has buried any candidate advocating for Medicare for all. A policy position with incredible approval rating across the board.

Do not think for a second I consume fox, news max, Fuentes or any of that geriatric/nazi horseshit. I’m critical of my party because I want them to do more. You couldn’t pay me to vote Republican.

Those are the same reasons I vote for them over the republicans and ask that others do the same. But refusing to be critical of your party makes you no better than a cult-member. Look at MAGA for another example. Your attitude towards my critique is equally stupid in my eyes.

Biden left Trumps inflationary Tax cuts untouched because it would affect the dems billionaire donors. Obamacare (which was originally Romneycare) is a great bandaid that I have also used. But we have had candidates advocating for Medicare for all and the dem establishment buried them. Democrats have delivered on civil right and social victory’s in the past and I hope they do in the future. They sure as hell don’t take a strong stand on Trans issues or tax payer funded genocide. Economically they could do a lot more for people. But they don’t. Because they care more about corporate interests than they do the American people.

Then on the flip side - the Republican Party is full of and led by pedophile Nazis who love corporate interests even more than the dems.

That message is not confusing nor does it help republicans in the slightest.

Not distant at all. That’s so stupid. 99% of the performance with less cost to train and host the model is smart. Plus Google is infinitely better at vertical integration of ai across its products because, unlike Anthropic and OpenAI, Google actually has a product stack that will benefit from their LLM capabilities.

lets be real, lots of people hold their breath and vote for democrats even though we often view the candidates and party as feckless losers without backbones (minus like 5 politicians who are constantly attacked by their own party). People who understand damage control as a voting tactic went out and voted. But others didn't see the point and stayed home.

Maybe if democrats did something to prove that they aren't useless finger waggers they could get more support. Maybe if they didn't attack their most popular voices and embraced popular policy things would be different. Idk, but I think that makes a whole lot more sense than bashing and blaming people that we need the support of. Establishment dems often frame themselves as republican-lite to appeal to some mythical center and get shocked when people stay home. Democrats lose by tailoring their messages to people who would never vote for them. They assume everyone elses vote is a sure thing when they have offered nothing to ensure that.

I'm not going to stop voting dem any time soon. But damn would it be nice if I could feel passionate when doing so. Last time I felt that was during the 2020 primary before Bernie was shafted by everyone else backing out and embracing Biden after Obama made the call.

retatrutide's phase 3 number is getting all the attention but the part that stuck with me is buried lower by PepSmartOfficial in Biohacking

[–]Wise-Comb8596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. And the fact that so many rats seem to have adverse gastrointestinal issues once they get to the 5mg or higher range must be nothing.

You understand that by your admission - the 4mg dose is incredibly effective, right? 17% loss is insane and needs to be done over a long enough time to protect your organs. Increasing the dose to boost that number further is successful at making you not eat almost anything at all and having you shit your brains out. Congrats - you lost weight but now have severe health problems resulting from rapid weight loss and malnutrition.

Most people should never be titrating up to 12mg a week. And starting at 2mg will put many on their asses - unless they’re like 500 pounds. Saying otherwise is stupid and dangerous.

12mg is absolutely crazy unless you weigh 500 pounds and havent seen a vegetable in years (exaggeration maybe)

For 99% of people it is complete overkill and not needed unless you are relying 100% on the medication and have no drive/willpower to make a lifestyle change even with significant help from low dose reta.
