So I just want to make sure I get this right: a substantial part of the US population *still* is ok with gutting health and safety measures via the FDA, CDC, and EPA, and has no problem paying extra for stuff that's made overseas, don't see why it's a good idea to do basic science and research, doesn't mind having a cabal of wealthy lawless oligarchs running their lives, and is fine with the government brutalizing people because they don't have the right papers. That's where we're at?
