This reminds me of the time the Mormons got pissed at me for asking if the Book of Mormon was a divine footnote.

World News@quokk.au•Ebola: Over 2,000 dead in DR Congo as virus gathers pace
23·6 days agoThis is going to get bad - Hollywood level bad. Two days ago, the death count was at 1800 and confirmed cases had just breached 3k. There are now over 2k dead and 4300 confirmed infections. That’s 650 new cases and 100 deaths a day.
“We haven’t reached the peak yet,” said Health Minister Samuel Roger Kamba in an interview shared by the ministry on X. “Within the next three months, we expect to have already brought the spread under control and to start seeing it decline,” he added.
So, in this overly optimistic scenario, at the current rate of infection, combined with the fatality rate, we’ll see 9000 more deaths and 58,500 new cases over the next three months before the government expects to have it “under control.”
This is a direct result of the dismantling of USAID and the CDC by the DOGE and GOP. The safeguards that protected us from the previous outbreak during Obama’s term are gone, and things are going to get a lot worse before they get better.
Because the rich pay the middle class to keep the poor in check. It’s that simple really.
It’s the deal the military and police have offered for a long time - recruit heavily from the underclass with the promise of social mobility, up to the next tier - the middle class. In exchange, you agree to oppress and/or kill people from your former social class.
It’s somewhat ironic that this meme is presented from the perspective of two monarchs, who clearly already understand the social dynamics at play, but hey, it makes for good rabble rousing.

1·10 days agoSince we’re on the subject of real life horrors, what happens when the borders of this outbreak overlap the borders of the current ebola outbreak?
This is a real question for any medical professionals in the chat, btw. I believe it’s highly likely we’ll see spread of the latter beyond Africa given the collapse of US disease control support under the current administration.

World News@quokk.au•[Opinion] 'Ethnic Unity Law': China is claiming the right to punish its critics anywhere on Earth
101·15 days agoWhen speaking to the oppressor, its best to do so in their language lest your intent be lost in translation or to a knee-jerk rejection based on the implications of a particular term.
The question was not directed to Australians nor to fellow travelers such as yourself, rather to the various operatives of the CCP that are likely monitoring this post.
They’ve yet to reply at the time of this writing… better hurry up Xinne the Pooh, my popcorn is getting cold.

And when you realize you can’t, then explain to me why I, as a citizen of another country, should uphold your law designed to ethnically cleanse your nation within my borders?

0·1 year agoNo, but posting can create a community of like-minded individuals who love to punch Nazis. It can also tell you where and when the punching is taking place, and which lawyers to call after the punching has occurred.
It’s a call to action, not the action itself, but most action doesn’t act unless called upon.
