    Rfk thinks no kids should be given any vaccines and is against the polio/measles vaccines btw. This is the guy running the health department for the most powerful country in the world. This guy has zero experience working in Healthcare but was given the job of managing hundreds of thousands of scientists and doctors lol.

    Right wingers have sheer audacity to b**** about DEI @AroundTheWorld but have no issues with unqualified white people being put in positions of power.

    Its hilarious how nobody has any values no more

    Nobody thought Obama was DEI. It's about the person, not the color of the skin.

    Spoken like someone who doesn't know the history of measles that is readily available on the CDC website. They used to have measles parties in the 60s so the kids "got it over with".

    In 15 years you'll try to act like the chicken pox is the black plague.

    Apparently it's OK to hire a grossly unqualified person as long as you don't consider their race or gender when doing so.

    LOL dude for the past 4 years you have been claiming every color person nominated was a DEI pick. You didn't give a **** if that person was qualified or not. You claimed ketanji brown was a dei pick even though she was more qualified to be a judge than anyone else.

    You're a bigot who put colored people on a standard than you do white folks. Quit the bs man

    This is the entire point I've been trying to make for years on these forums. A white person doesn't have to be qualified as long as they're a republican and white. A colored person is held to a completely different standard. This is what I've been saying for years

    Biden said he was going to nominate a black woman to the SC.

    Objectively stupid to say that, because even though KJB was completely qualified it tarnished her nomination.

    Biden did the same thing when he said he was only going to choose a female VP.

    I'm personally FAR more bothered by Trump's appointments of nincompoops than I am Biden's DEI appointments, because at the end of the day they are objectively more qualified.... But for some people they would apparently rather be led by a unmerited moron than a highly merited person who was given even the slightest consideration to their race or gender.

    Again. Claiming you are going to put a specific race for a job does not mean that person was not qualified. Ketanji brown was more qualified to be a judge than anyone else on the bench. It didn't "tarnish" her opinion. It only tarnished her reputation with naive people who didn't bother to read her qualifications. Kamala was much more qualified than JD vance

    I'm against identity politics but everyone who Biden put in power were wayyyy more qualified than these dipshits trump is putting in power.

    A republican appointee doesn't have to be white or male.

    They just have to believe the dumbest **** imaginable.

    Measles killed a crap load of kids. Still does in places without widespread vaccination.

    Trump appointees are white DEI. Put unqualified people in positions of power.

    You realize they had those parties because they didn't have or did not trust vaccines, right?

    We lost so many lives and spent so many hours to defeat these diseases only for some youtube university educated dipshits to come along and dismantle it.

    This is as ****ing stupid as it is sad.

    Most kids by age 15 got the measles pre-vaccine. Saying the measles killed a crapload of kids is like saying peanut butter kills a crapload of kids. Some have allergies but the vast majority don't aka the vast majority who got measles were absolutely fine. Here are the stats from the CDC pre-vaccine

    0.013% of infected people died each year.

    1.37% were hospitalized each year.

    0.029% suffered encephalitis each year.

    There is nothing weong with getting it if you want but shouldn't be mandated in any state. There are things we allow that have worse stats than that. And if it really is about measles like that then these vaccines should be decoupled.
