Yeah there's an ad on right wing radio that starts off with "We survived Obama and HIllary" despite the fact Hillary was never even president.

RoboRodent posted:Miraculously, puberty blockers are somehow not harmful when prescribed to cis kids with precocious puberty. This isnt the "oh no potential slight bone density loss" argument. This is the "puberty blockers turn you trans" argument. As evidence for this, they used the very high proportion of kids prescribed blockers for dysphoria who went on to hormonal transition. It's the same logic you could use to argue that chemotherapy gives you cancer. And this argument was successfully used in court to stop medical care for trans kids in the uk for nearly a year.

Did you miss Tom Haughton's speech from the other day in the enby debate? He favours outlawing puberty blockers for under 18s. Once a trans kid reaches 18 though, he/she can have them then.

JeremoudCorbynejad posted:Is every single China daily cartoon just dunking on the US? I don't think I've seen a single one consider another topic The US is the target audience for China Daily (they used to buy whole page ads in the washington post), so it's usually a big part of their approach. The "dunking" part is because they're poisoned by their own propaganda and can't distinguish their internal from external frameworks; it often reflects anti-US talking points that play well domestically. It also may reflect that their functional audience is Chinese individuals now living in the US; China has a bunch of resources just dedicated to those populations.

Cartoonists get a free rerun of all their thoughts and prayers cartoons from the buffalo shooting now. Just change the words to Texas and 14 dead kids. At this point I’m surprised they just don’t have a generic ones with no location written on them so they don’t even have to pretend to put effort in

Am I an idiot or is Lester getting more incomprehensible lately? I mean I sort of understand "The Dems are mad at the WSJ for saying Hillary is behind the Steel Dossier" but why is Hillary there too? Ah, Bok joining Lester in the "Selling poisoned baby formula is cool and good" camp. Isn't this kind of opposite of reality? As far as I know most of the candidates Trump has endorsed have done really well in their primaries.

Not really? As this day has demonstrated, this could run every couple of days in America with a some slight adjustment of the tucker carlson panels at most and it will remain relevant basically indefinitely. Republicans have already denounced any calls for gun control over this latest shooting. It is only Tuesday, there are still plenty of school shooting days left in the week.

I interpreted the "oof" as referring to the last panel where they're all "let's talk about the real problem, hordes of dirty immigrants!" since this mass shooter seems to be Latino.

Terrible Opinions posted:Safety standards yes but not actual quality control on the ground. The rules in the US assume a far larger and more motivated workforce than companies that make baby formula, or peanut butter in the case of the most recent recall, are willing to employ. Yes, actual quality control on the ground. Again, there's a reason we're doing stuff like genetic sequencing on individual infections.

Not particularly good at solving the problem of companies not hiring enough workers at high enough wages to keep rat poo poo off food. That's...not...in any way responsive to the point. The outbreak was detected and traced back, and identified at all, because the US has a stronger set of regulations and safety culture practices than many other countries. For all its problems (about which I can and have gone on at length), the US generally has a much safer food supply than other countries, with the exception of parts of the EU for specific issues. The difference is we expend more resources to detect, and publicly announce, food safety violations, so they're actually visible.

Your point is that the US has a shortage due to the stricter safety culture when that just isn't true. The strict safety culture reduced the number of dead kids and made the shortage happen a bit earlier, which is good. But even in nations with laxer standards dead kids is gonna get a recall and shortage, later and with more dead kids but it's still gonna happen. Punitive measures don't have any affect, besides timing, if the system allows for the tainted food to exist in the first place. The comic is still wrong because China is even more inept.

Terrible Opinions posted:Your point is that the US has a shortage due to the stricter safety culture when that just isn't true. Yes, it is. A significant reason why there's been domestic market concentration in infant formula is because infant formula is in fact particularly strictly regulated, and does in fact reduce the scope of companies that are able to produce products to US standards. It's part of why FDA is now applying enforcement discretion to allow the import of some foreign products that normally wouldn't meet domestic labeling standards. Terrible Opinions posted:But even in nations with laxer standards dead kids is gonna get a recall and shortage, later and with more dead kids but it's still gonna happen. No, not necessarily. In many nations a common source for infant deaths isn't even identified, let alone traced to a source and producing a recall. Terrible Opinions posted:Punitive measures don't have any affect, besides timing, if the system allows for the tainted food to exist in the first place. Punitive measures, which are part of the entire regulatory apparatus, can reduce the relative amount of tainted food. That "the system" "allows" for tainted food does not make this a binary. Other countries can in fact have more food safety issues, and the presence of food safety issues does not make "the system" meaningless. The existence of a massive scandal with so few deaths reflects, in no small part, the fact that "the system" actually does have an effect!
