NOVA | PBS on Twitter: "The current drug overdose epidemic is killing people at a faster rate than the H.I.V. epidemic at its peak—https://t.co/N37NSREf4g @nytimes"

Yeah but they’re the bad type of skin color so we can safely ignore them and nothing insane will happen.

Have you actually been seeing a significant number of lefty people say that we should ignore the drug overdose epidemic or that it isn’t a problem?

My “:<” was more about the situation overall.

This did fly under the radar for a while, and there was a bit of coverage, but no real political will to accompany it.  In this case the GOPpers aren’t so much better since they don’t know how to actually fix drug problems, although apparently they’re changing the laws to stop handing out opioids by the 90-pill bottle after every surgery.

(I was given some prescription painkillers after my surgery and deliberately avoided using the full dose, or even many of the pills.  I wanted to feel enough pain to know when I might be causing trouble.  Apparently I inadvertantly followed what you’re supposed to be doing.)

SAN FRANCISCO—In an effort to reduce the number of unprovoked hostile communications on the social media platform, Twitter announced Monday that it had added a red X-mark feature verifying users who are in fact perfectly okay to harass. “This new verification system offers users a simple, efficient way to determine which accounts belong to total pieces of shit whom you should have no qualms about tormenting to your heart’s desire,” said spokesperson Elizabeth James, adding that the small red symbol signifies that Twitter has officially confirmed the identity of a loathsome person who deserves the worst abuse imaginable and who will deliberately have their Mute, Block, and Report options disabled. “When a user sees this symbol, they know they’re dealing with a real asshole who has richly earned whatever mistreatment they receive, including profanity, body-shaming, leaking of personal information, and relentless goading to commit suicide. It’s really just a helpful way of saying to our users, ‘This fuck has it coming, so do your worst with a clear conscience and without fear of having your account suspended.’” At press time, Twitter reassuredly clarified that the red X was just a suggestion and that all users could still be bullied with as little recourse as they are now.

The less smug you are, (and the less unethical you are), the less it stings when your most unethical behavior comes to light.

It’s good standard practice to avoid using “wit” (and snark) on people because they are low-status (”gross,” “smelly,” “ugly,” “fat harpy” and so on).  First of all, it’s just not a good mental hygiene habit.  Second of all, it cannot then come back to haunt you.

When liberals Constantly use ‘45’, ‘head cheeto’, ‘drumpf’ etc to refer to trump….I’m just like “you know it isn’t like beetlejuice, right”

obiternihili

it’s just the liberal obummer

rendakuenthusiast

It’s exactly as stupid as obummer was. Or for that matter however people made fun of Bush. Or for that matter writing “Micro$oft” with a dollar sign.

mitigatedchaos

It’s such a disgraceful way to refer to our first Meme-American President!

They need to have some cultural respect instead of just dismissing him over his unusually-saturated skin color!
