I'm suspicious that sociopaths are a parasitic subspecies. Like there are these alien creatures that look entirely human walking around among us. They look like us, talk like us, but think that the general human species is inferior to their own.

What if they could identify other sociopaths, and were working in concert. Hmm, this is ridiculous.

Anyway, yeah. I don't think Clinton is capable of that level of introspection.

The fact that Clinton endorsed Cuomo is the cherry on top.

That interviewer is such a push over. Jeeze, who are these people! If you know the image is photo shopped, you say, "No, you are wrong, the image was photo shopped," not, "well it is contested, we'll look into that."

Such a disappointment.

Somehow this made it worse. “goddamn Alpha energy” - who are these people. All I want is for the dems to not be rich people faking concern for the poor.

But Democrats have majorities in California and NYC and other blue states. The republicans aren't necessary for this to happen. I think?

Ok, I went to that page, and took the "are you eligible test" putting in a few different sets of numbers. This is definitely not a public option.

edit -> Thanks for the link!

Are they closer to a public option than NY? NY really isn't a public option.

It's "basically that." But it's not "actually that."

A public option would provide necessary health care at zero cost. Without regard to your income. Without regard to your job.

This creates a situation, where if you earn a little bit more, you get "taxed" a lot. And quite frankly, sometimes it's better to earn less and get healthcare than to earn more and lose it.

Also, I'm under the impression, and could be wrong about this, but I believe NYC gets the funding for the NYC state of health from the federal government. So it can be held as ransom, by bullies like Adams or Trump.

I'm suggesting that NYC should do an actual public option not using federal money. Instead binding together with other states to increase leverage and lower costs.

I'm looking for a public-option health care in Hawaii. Haven't found yet. Do you have a link? If I find I'll post a link

I want to respond with something. But everything I write is so fucking dark and violent. Here goes, I'll try again:

If I were in Nazi Germany, and I saw this go down- a Jew or disabled or protester getting disappeared- and these Nazi brown shirts were shot and killed, or beaten to a pulp with metal bars, fucking stomped to death, I think it would be just.

I don't know exactly how to put this, but I feel personally embarrassed by this.

I think this is going to shift world order more than expected. Every country now must be nuclear. Trump is going to try to install himself as a dictator. I think violence will have to be the answer. Man it's depressing.

I wish there was a way to flag users who use ChatGPT to generate answers- and then let me automatically ban anyone above a certain threshold.
