‘One Big Beautiful Bill Act’ is projected to cut nearly $1 trillion in Medicaid spending over the next decade. Parents with sick kids and doctors tell Rhian Lubin the cuts are ‘final nail in the coffin’
Not the CEO, the PATIENT. Regardless, posting a link to anyones home address is removable and bannable. If it’s malicious, as we saw with some of the Luigi type stuff, that can be a permaban.
With regards to Luigi etc - well - that’s a different topic. At some point, peaceful protest doesn’t work anymore - the core question of debate is when that point is reached.
That’s indeed the wrong target for disdain, but I suspect OP linked that to show “look I found that she voted R” as it wasn’t in the article IIRC. That is probably the information I was missing here, why it sounded weird.
You’d never know Louisiana had a Democrat in the governor’s mansion as recently as 2024. The whole state is condemned to this horror because liberals pooched a single election cycle and then lethargically handed dictoral power to a madman.
No, because of the Democratic Governor Kathleen Blanco’s handling of the storm.
Similarly, the mayor of New Orleans at the time, Ray Nagin, was a Democrat.
The locals definitely blamed them a lot more than Bush, which is fair, the hurricanes had been happening for decades and nobody had even so much as drawn up a plan to use school buses to evacuate those without vehicles. The plan was always “better hope you own a car, bitch!” which really isn’t a plan at all.
You’re assuming that registration = vote, when that’s not necessarily the case. In areas where Republicans are the majority (like Louisiana) it’s not uncommon for left leaning people to register and vote in the Republican primaries and then vote Democratic in the election, because the only real time they have a voice in the political process is trying to get the least shitty Republican on the ballot.
Do I know that’s what happened here? No. And neither do you. It’s a victim blaming distraction from the fact that this administration is allowing disabled children to suffer and die.

Yeah, this is me. I live in a district that will 100% without a doubt always go red. It’s gerrymandered to hell and back, and a democrat has absolutely zero chance of winning here… So I register R, and vote for the least crazy republican in the primaries. Because that’s the only time my vote will actually have any impact on the result. Whoever wins the republican primary will win the district, (and any democrat would be better than the crazies coming out of the Republican Party), so I try to influence the former as much as possible. Then I vote blue in the general so my stats are counted as a blue vote.

We do not allow doxing.
Who was doxed? And was it a person, or a function? Did you ban OP because of that? Was it not sufficient to edit/remove the comment?
Home address of a person listed in the article. We do not allow doxing. Ban is temporary.
That sounds strange? On a quick read, I see no obvious “evil healthcare CEO” who someone might want to dox?

That sounds like a really weird approach by OP.
With regards to Luigi etc - well - that’s a different topic. At some point, peaceful protest doesn’t work anymore - the core question of debate is when that point is reached.
Yeah, in this case OP was like “well, she shouldn’t have voted Republican” and linked to her voter registration with home address.
No. Just… NO.

Second mistake is living in Monroe.

Good to know people still know Monroe sucks.

They also more traditionally had Democratic governors before Hurricane Katrina, which is where the state turned more Republican again.
Because of Bush’s masterful handling of the storm? Way to go guys.
