  • Hearing Cancer cost payments as someone who lost someone close due to cancer makes me furious. Like I literally cannot handle hearing the prices because it’s such OBVIOUS FUCKING PROOF that the bourgeoisie cares more about Cash than Human Life! Normally that would sound like a hamfisted portrayal of a bad guy in a shitty book, but it’s real, it’s all around us, people who could give less than one tenth of a fuck if we live or die, as long as the checks come in, the life-saving medicine does. Even if it ISN’T life-saving and they pass away soon after, they still charge amounts that -as Parenti says- would make the Pharaohs blush




  • A lot of it is the material conditions. Biden came in while several vaccines are in. Granted he could’ve done a better job of stressing it isn’t over, but under Trump plenty of people were really concerned about how soon vaccines would come out. The virus was perceived to be more dangerous under Trump and SOME not all, some people took it more seriously. Admittedly I think Biden would’ve done better with the start of Covid than Trump but at this point it doesn’t matter and like you said, things are worse under Biden for covid overall, I’m willing to admit I’m wrong on that point. So end result, Biden doesn’t even receive that half point for his Covid promise smh
