@slcw
I actually live in Florida and have to deal with the results of policies these schmucks install. Can’t stand these guys. However . . .

Given that Surgeon General Ladapo is African-American (literally born in Nigeria), perhaps call him something other than “witch doctor” because honestly it smacks of racism. I don’t want this guy to have any room to claim the moral high ground, since his policy choices will end with dead children.

Calling him a “quack” I think is the better option.

@ArthurCopeland4 Oh... I hadn't considered that. Racism is most definitely not my intention. I chose that word because it felt more extreme than "quack", but I'll just stick with quack going forward because I don't want anyone to get derailed by unintentional, racist language. Thank you for correcting me.

@slcw No problem, I didn’t think that was your intention. Cheers.

@ArthurCopeland4 It's not the first time I put my foot in my mouth. 😭

@slcw Luckily it's #Florida, and nobody would be sorry if it sank into the sea, or burned in a dumpster.

@squig Yeah, but I don't like the idea of all those children being exposed to measles. They can't control their anti-vaxx parent's decisions, or the reckless decisions of the medical extremist in control of the state's health policies. They're just victims.
