    Someone tried to tell me RFK was doing good things because he was finally going after red dyes in food… completely ignoring ALLLLLL the other quackery.

      This was never about science or reality.

      They hate us for defying their ways and challenging them to be better. They’d rather destroy everything we all had than allow trans people and immigrants to live in peace.

        I had so much hope in the 90s, it felt like things were really shifting, there was a lot of music about it even, people could feel it. I don’t know if that was real or just blowing smoke up all our asses, but a lot of people worked really hard and a lot even died for our rights and recognition. It’s really a shame to see that all being pissed away by complacency, and worst of all the man at the head of it all is literally the antithesis of everything I believe in.

      This movement to ban petroleum based dyes in food started long before he was in office and attributing it to him is incorrect.

        Right? I was under the impression they were already banned a lot of other places as well. We’ve been dragging our heels because of corporate kissassism.
