you'll have to excuse those of us who no longer trust the CDC after they intentionally lied to the public numerous times during the Covid-19 pandemic and contributed to the death and permanent injuries of US Americans who became infected due to their misinformation.

I hear this same line from anti vaxxers

but people still lack the fucking common sense to quarantine themself after symptoms go away but when you're still contagious. Smh

CDC says to go back to work and resume normal activities 24 hours after symptoms start to improve but they may still be present.

https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2024/p0301-respiratory-virus.html

What common sense are you relying on here and why does it go against CDC guidelines?

You didn't mention "should" or "statistics" at all in your post with the claims. You just stated your made up opinion as fact.

Hm, well maybe I'm biased, as I haven't even seen a hybrid or an electric car.

You haven't seen or used either hyrbrid or electric but needed to share that hybrid was objectively better?

This is why training AI on user content leads to so many terrible answers.

If I promise something and someone blocks me from viably pursuing it, that's not on me, that's on them: Republicans.

If I promise my kid a trip to their favorite amusement park and then don't get the big bonus I expected from work to afford it, it's not my jobs fault the kid didn't go to the park. It's my fault for making a promise and not finding a way to follow through.

  • I highlight the fact that all Marijuana legalization, decriminalization initiatives, referendums have come under the Democratic party with Democratic states being the trailblazers
  • You ignore this fact.

Because its not true. There's a Republican led bill introduced as recently as 2023.

promises often come to fruition.

It's more like he's bandwagoning something that now has popular support, without actually accomplishing much.

If he was serious he could reappoint DEA and other positions. Or an executive order to be challenged in court, etc.

Both Biden and his VP are on record as being anti marijuana before this last campaign. Biden as recently as when he was VP himself.

Bidens campaign has also fired or removed staffers for prior marijuana use.

If I can't believe any of the good campaign promises from biden because everyone lies, why should we take the scary campaign promises of republicans seriously?

It really leads to apathy in the voter base.

Then why is one of his campaign promises written as: "As president he will decriminalize cannabis..."

Is his campaign promising things he doesn't have the power to do?

He was never convicted of that, it was a civil trial not a criminal one.

He was found liable.

There's a bunch of analytics tracking and cloud integration in Plex. They are interested in what users are watching, which is concerning.

Switch to Jellyfin or another open source server.
