I was asked this weekend how I feel about "Google Warriors" that I may encounter in my medical practice. My mind immediately flashed to the "don't confuse your Google search with my medical degree" signs and the clever response that many disabled and chronically ill folks give:

When countless citizens lost voting rights to criminal offenses over marijuana possession, a White man trespasses onto the lawmaking chambers of the supposed free nation and lights a joint to parade his privilege. Read that as many times as you need to.

If @realDonaldTrump were to lose (he won’t) his supporters will go to work tomorrow just as we do everyday. When Biden loses, his “supporters” will likely loot and riot. Tells you everything you need to know! #Trump2020

This is why people are sick of politics. Families are being crushed, and you can only think about blaming Democrats.

You did this.

“We came out here in t-shirts, they started gassing us. We came back with respirators, they started shooting us. We came back with vests, they started aiming for the head... And now they call us terrorists. Who’s escalating this? It’s not us.” @MacSmiff xitter.cf/ERICGUDAS/status/12881…
