I work with a guy from Kenya and someone from Somalia who were laughing at the idea that I'm subscribed to a diet company that sends me food; they told me that people back in their countries would be laughing at the idea that I'm paying a company not to send me food as many of them struggle with food security themselves.

People in the poorer parts of the global South would find people like this ludicrous; to see people who have the good fortune to have easy access to vaccines and to deprive their children of it instead must be infuriating to people who desperately wish to provide such simple meds to their families.

Tbh a lot of african countries are struggling with increasing child obesity, not due to the quantities of food, but due to processed corn syrup produce erasing local cuisines. Also many people groups that have been through long famines have a disposition towards gaining weight faster and diabetes. This can clearly be seen in post-independence India and amongst the Lakota people, who have very high rates of diabetes.

This is also a multi-generational process involving epigenetics, to further support your point. Parents who suffer famine during their own childhood pass on these epigenetic flags that cause their children to have these adaptations to food insecurity activated, which generally makes them shorter than they would otherwise be (since someone who is physically smaller needs less food) and store fat more readily whenever possible leaving them with more of a safety buffer if food stops being available.

It's really fascinating on like a meta level how there's this sort of layer of reactive temporary inheritance for some traits, where an evolved adaptation can be turned on or off based on multi-generational material conditions like that, because something that's a desirable and life-saving adaptation to an unstable, famine-prone environment becomes a liability in prolonged periods of stability and plenty.

Just to add on to your point, this effect has been shown to be triggered over a relatively short period of time. The Dutch Hunger Winter of 1944-1945 caused by the Nazis blockading urban centers in the Netherlands under their control from the rural food producing areas triggered this epigenetic adaptiation in the children and pregnant mothers (who passed it on to their then unborn children) that were affected. All from a single famine lasting from roughly late September/early October 1944 until early May 1945.

Tbh I'd assume it was a "normal" food subscription service, which I find detestable and overpriced. It must he expensive?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Honestly? Cheaper than the fast food I'd been binging (roughly only a third of what I was spending on fast food)

I know there's alot of poor communities that have vaccine skepticism because of where the vaccines come from. (white westerners)

When you have the CDC historically doing shit like the Tuskagee Syphilis experiments its understandable for these communities to have such deep mistrust.

I wonder what's in those frames he took off the wall and turned around

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 months ago

Maybe it's mirrors but it seems like the paper on the back of a frame

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

Probably cant stand to have the child he murdered looking at him whenever he passes by.

What a odd way to say you don't love any of your kids.

There are literally laws on the books, even in fucking TX, that could be used to put this non-person in prison, or at the absolute minimum take away the remaining children, to be put in homes which do not practice medical neglect. But of course they won't be exercised even if officials want to do so, because that would be opposing Trump in one of the deepest-red parts of the country.

Death cult. Fascism only cares about your loyalty. But they won't reward it, if you are just a foot soldier. You will be hammered down same as the rest, if you step out of line.

Losers. Weak, pathetic losers.

I kind of feel like if my child died as a direct result of my own stupidity and negligence I probably would find a way to remain in denial over that too. Maybe not for forever, but I don't think I'd be capable of facing that right after.

Not sure if that says something bad about me.

I'm wishing harm on this person.

In a civilised society the state would have made sure that the children were getting their vaccines in the first place, no matter if their idiot parents were cooperative or not.

A civilised society would probably also beat this man with a stick until he realises exactly how stupid he is being.

What a piece of fucking shit

Is it Eco fascism to forcibly sterilize someone like this? In Minecraft, of course
