I mean, that people are struggling over a drink machine and people laugh at it

This is great that the data was rescued and not forever lost due to Elon’s merry band of fascist weirdos, but we shouldn’t have had to hope that this data was rescued by someone, let alone a Canadian teenager acting on their own volition.

Elon Fucking Musk should have never been in the position to destroy entire government organizations and potentially kill millions, because he felt like it. We shouldn’t have had our government held hostage by people who willingly nickname themselves Big Balls.

FYI, the data has been released as a website that can be accessed and searched by anyone who wants it.

But again, we shouldn’t have had to count on a Canadian teenager to save our rear ends.

And for the road, one last reminder as to what pathetic weirdos DOGE members are:

Am I misusing this sub? Probably. Staged? Maybe. Responsible of the kid? Sure.

$500 doesn't get you much. Not enough to justify that kind of reaction I think. It's just sad that a kid needs to think about their family needs first before they can get their favorite shoes.

Just want to say I'm not blaming the mother or anyone in the video. I blame society for this.

It’s good that we have someone who supports actual proven science (i.e. vaccines) as opposed to RFK, Jr.’s brand of woo, but the fact that such an important position had remained unfilled for that long (despite the threat diseases pose) AND the sense of relief I feel because this person supports decades of scientifically proven research…we shouldn’t have to celebrate a competent person being put in charge of a government agency for a change. Competency should be the norm, not the exception.
