@dig6394 @MarbleDuck @realitywonk @LukeMiani It doesn't have to cost billions, it just already has. I mean, we literally nuked them once to stop their spread. This nebulous missing 15m logistically is not the reason that they're back

@Protohype42 @MarbleDuck @realitywonk @LukeMiani Why does preventing a screwworm outbreak have to cost billions? It cost a lot to fix an outbreak, but prevention is always cheaper than a cure.
15 million is what it cost to prevent an outbreak, though from what I heard, that was on the low end
English
> save $15M a year by cutting a screwworm monitoring program
> screwworm outbreak almost immediately
> $1B to combat it
Government efficiency

The Trump administration has announced they'll need to spend an estimated $1 billion to combat the New World Screwworm.

@ClipBurghFrieza @MarbleDuck @realitywonk @LukeMiani They opened the door, inviting it out to attack. Only They were never the ones meant to suffer for it. The tiger attacks anyone, even if the people opening the cage are invisible, hidden safely in their towers, opening it with hired hands
English
@Protohype42 @MarbleDuck @realitywonk @LukeMiani Ok Protohype, do you see that tiger in the cage? If it gets out it will attack us, so make sure you keep the door closed.
"So in a decade I can open the door and the tiger won't attack us because it hasn't attacked us for a decade" - Protohype thoughts

@Protohype42 @realitywonk @LukeMiani Funding is committed in government on a yearly basis. So a billion dollar effort over a couple decades would have reasonably shown up as a 15M line item.
English
@MarbleDuck @realitywonk @LukeMiani Yes, it has, that is exactly what I just said. The cost is likely in the billions, so 15 million shouldn't have been the end of it. Unless you're talking about a program to re-introduce screw worms being active for decades, which I suppose would validate my first assumption
English
English
@MarbleDuck @realitywonk @LukeMiani Largely because we spent decades keeping those things out of North America. I don't think 15 million in cuts, which I have yet to see enumerated, doesn't really explain what's happening
English
@realitywonk @Protohype42 @LukeMiani why is the “simple answer” some sort of Rube Goldberg machine run by ??? rather than just the simple answer of screwworm prevention stops->there are screwworms
English
@HAHAHAHAHHAMAD @realitywonk @LukeMiani Well, yes, if you value gabapentin, lisinopril, and omeprazole that much, just tell your doctor that you're suffering from neuropathy, high blood pressure, and heartburn
English
English
@realitywonk @LukeMiani Hmm, a parasite that would destroy countless cattle and ramp up the scarcity and price of beef even further beyond the ridiculous levels they already reached because of the packer's union. I wonder who has the power to make this happen and would benefit the most from it?
English
@LukeMiani I'm sure that isn't a function of your 'biolabs', right?
No way would you deliberately proliferate this as some sort of blackmail / extortion, right?

@sandeew18 @WUTangKids @atrupar It's most likely inconsistent staffing. The need to rapid-fire plug holes in kitchen crews to keep things running results in incredibly motley, ornery, and volatile groups of people. One person's bad day can become any number of people's bad meal

Sir….the Japanese World Cup tourists discovered Texas Roadhouse and are calling it the "best cost-performance steak"

@BlaineDetails @CarmineSabia Grok is wrong. You can watch the clip yourself and see it in real-time. Grok's data is mostly sourced from left-leaning journalists who ran to spin the whole thing against him as fast as they could, calling her polite and composed when the evidence of my eyes tells me otherwise
English
@CarmineSabia That's AI and your comment is unhinged.

This is what psychopath Kristin Welker looked like talking to the President of the United States. Maybe if she showed some respect people would respect her.
Jake Tapper 🦅@jaketapper
That is some wild, unhinged stuff from the President. Welker is a good person and honest journalist and didn’t deserve that but more importantly we have a president who constantly pushes conspiracy theories with zero evidence and can’t respond when politely challenged on that.
English
@VividThoughts_1 @earlkralik @GBPolitcs If you call it bad then, and then turn around and say it's okay now because they did it first, you are morally inconsistent. If it was bad then it's bad now, and if it's not bad now, then they were never bad for doing it in the first place and your reasoning fails
English
@earlkralik @GBPolitcs I wonder why that is? Could it be because historically, racism has almost always affected ethnic minorities and demographically, white people being the majority, have until quite recently, not had to deal with racism at the same levels as ethnic minority groups?

🚨NEW: Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy has said racial equality "doesn't mean treating everyone the same"
English
@DanielCL0114 @KirscheVerstahl They know what they are doing. When they've replaced us and are voted out by the next, they'll go down with golden parachutes into their private communities with private police to live out their days in opulence with the ruling elite. They're tools and they're okay with that
English
@KirscheVerstahl The end game blows up in their face either way. If this was all about votes, these groups will eventually vote these people out. If it is pure hatred of whites, then the end result is the same for those pushing this. Proof that these people are idiots without any forethought
English
He is telling you the truth of the matter
it is how equality morphed into equity
while we all believed in the 90s we were genuinely heading towards a future where race didn't matter
treating some races more favorably than others was always the goal for these politicians
GB Politics@GBPolitcs
🚨NEW: Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy has said racial equality "doesn't mean treating everyone the same"
English
@RideroftheMH @KirscheVerstahl It was always the goal. It was the plan all along to turn the most organized, civilized, powerful people into a legally supported and culturally celebrated victim, because the people being given status above us are far easier to control or destroy when the time comes
English
@KirscheVerstahl I wouldn't say it was the goal necessarily. The goal is complete control over all us. This is easier to obtain when your enemy is divided against each other instead of completely focused on you, the tyrant.
English
@MayUlive2C @JayCee51505150 @CryptoLifeStL @elonmusk Asks for proof of position, ignores proof of position. You were incapable of finding the evidence that you didn't want to see with a simple google search. There were LITTERALLY violent mobs burning down cities demanding that he be called a murderer, yet say nobody demanded it
English
@Protohype42 @JayCee51505150 @CryptoLifeStL @elonmusk They called it murder, because that's what it was. No one demanded it. The facts proved it.
English
@kxinreversed @Anthony_TeraHz It's just become another tool, another wile, to farm sympathy from fake trauma. It's terrible, but nobody willingly relinquishes power once its given to them. Like, their SAer never did anything, and it the claim was weaponized against him as well
English
@Anthony_TeraHz i stg every woman i’ve ever talked to has claimed they’ve been raped at least once 😭

How your girlfriend looks at you when you ask her to block the guy who “raped” her in 2022
English
@MayUlive2C @JayCee51505150 @CryptoLifeStL @elonmusk mncourts.gov/_media/additio… - The last sentence basically said that if they had found him dead anywhere else, they'd call it an overdose. They called it murder because the mob demanded, but at the worst, Chauvin just sped it up. I don't think I'll convince you, but that's just X
English
@Protohype42 @JayCee51505150 @CryptoLifeStL @elonmusk And yet that doesn't appear in any searches. So, believe you're bullshitting.
English
@MayUlive2C @JayCee51505150 @CryptoLifeStL @elonmusk You can find that the same way you found the main report and you know it
English
English
@MayUlive2C @JayCee51505150 @CryptoLifeStL @elonmusk There's the memo the same coroner's office put out saying that he did, in fact, have fatal levels of fentanyl in his system. The news was a joke. The guy would have been put to death if the "official" report was anything short of homicide. There was meth in that blood, too
English
@Protohype42 @JayCee51505150 @CryptoLifeStL @elonmusk Actually that's not what the coroner's report claimed killed him at all.
He was murdered by the police. The report states:
the cause of death is “cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression."
