A peer-reviewed paper published last year in the journal Bioethics by two professors at Western Michigan University School of Medicine argues that it is "morally obligatory" to genetically engineer ticks to spread alpha-gal syndrome, a permanent condition that makes you violently allergic to red meat. The paper is called "Beneficial Bloodsucking." Their argument: if eating meat is morally wrong, then preventing the spread of a disease that forces people to stop eating meat is also morally wrong. Scientists should gene-edit lone star ticks to enhance their ability to carry alpha-gal syndrome and expand their range into urban environments to infect more people. They call this a "moral bioenhancer." They frame releasing genetically modified disease-carrying ticks as a "vaccination" that only "infringes" on your bodily autonomy rather than "violating" it. The distinction, apparently, is that a tick bit you instead of a government official holding you down. Alpha-gal syndrome is not mild. The CDC estimates up to 450,000 Americans are already affected. Cases have surged 100-fold in the last decade. Symptoms include anaphylaxis. There is no cure. Alpha-gal cases are exploding across the United States. The lone star tick's range is expanding far beyond its historical territory. And two academics at a medical school published a paper arguing this is a good thing that should be accelerated. At what point do we stop treating papers like this as fringe academic exercises and start asking whether anyone is already acting on them?

I don’t give a shit what Smith and Carney cook up to try and lie to the public. I hope Albertans continue to fight for separation. I trust none of these clowns.

You’re conflating separate issues. The ones tied to Centurion are not Alberta independence leadership. If anything illegal comes out, nobody is defending that. And Rath is a lawyer/advocate speaking to legal rights and process, not “defending corruption.” At least be accurate.

@xllenial @ABDanielleSmith Oh, I agree that real corruption needs scrutiny at all levels as well as accountability and consequences. So aside from a voter data breach, and unauthorized access; combined with a lack of cooperation and then poorly managed denial by people like Rath; there’s no concerns ?

@Booyah8 @ABDanielleSmith If you’re alleging corruption, be specific. Who did what, when, and what’s the evidence? Real corruption deserves scrutiny across all levels of government. Random insinuations and name-dropping aren’t proof.

We have introduced the Citizen Initiative Act to put Albertans in the driver's seat of our democracy. Following the last federal election, I committed to doing everything within our power to fight for a fair deal for Alberta, and to give Albertans a bigger say over major issues.

Before I post anything I would like to do the now mandatory Land Acknowledgment. I acknowledge that this entire X feed exists on traditional First Nations territories. I further acknowledge that by typing these words scrolling liking or even breathing in my own house I am probably guilty of something.

The Ticks are destroying wild animals so you can’t hunt them The chemtrails are poisoning the ground so you can’t grow food The data centers are the infrastructure of the digital control grid The purpose of the Iran war was to shut the Strait and cause shortages / rationing And the antisemitism push is to criminalize resistance

🕊️This new Alberta song is dedicated to the memory and service of Raymond Strom, of Calgary, Alta., who dedicated his life’s work to putting Albertans first. As Vice-President of Policy for the United Conservative Party of Alberta, he served Albertans with humility, conviction.

Alberta separatists claim oil is the key to independence and they’re not gonna pay income tax. Wellllll Alberta made $22B from oil & gas royalties last year. Sounds like the industry is carrying the whole province, right?Here’s what they don’t tell you. Income taxes brought in $24.2B. Regular Albertans and businesses quietly out-contributed the oilpatch. And oil isn’t stable. In 2015 when prices tanked, resource revenue collapsed to $2.8B. The province ran deficits almost every year from 2008 to 2022. Next year, with oil forecast lower, resource revenue is projected to drop to $13.2B while income tax stays steady near $24B. So when someone tells you we can’t afford to question the oil industry, or that pipelines and royalty breaks are non-negotiable because oil funds everything, ask them this: Why does a province sitting on one of the world’s largest energy reserves keep going broke every time the price of a barrel moves? The industry is important. Nobody’s denying that. But it’s a volatile. Alberta has been using boom revenues to avoid hard conversations instead of building something durable.
