Like what? We want cheap eggs, they’ve got to be factory farmed at immense scale. Then bird flu hits and we have to cull 100,000,000 chickens. Bouncing chicken and egg prices are the new normal.
Just buy local. Less likely to have disease as they are not factory farmed. Dude lives next door and literally hands out eggs for free cause they lay shit loads and no one will buy them. Hell just raise your own chickens
Supply and Demand doesn’t end when you go to the local farm. People that are demanding cheaper prices from small farms are killing those farms. Do you think the small farms get their inputs for a cheaper price then the factory farms?
I’m talking about not having monitoring infrastructure in place and mandatory reporting. Trumps been in office not even a week this is totally on biden.
I was referring to bird flu not the price or availability of eggs.
edit - wow, the downvotes. Liberal la la land strikes again. Bird flu has been circulating around american agriculture and it’s workers for quite some time and it’s like the biden admin learned nothing from covid other than trumps policy of pretending nothings wrong. Fucking insane. The DNC shillbots of lemmy world strike again!
You shoved so many “libtard” type buzzwords in your goofy ass comment it’s hard to ever take you seriously even if you were saying something salient.
Just FYI
As an anarchist I think the liberals are a fucking joke and a bad one at that. Liberals can’t fathom a world that exists outside of their narrow red-blue spectrum.
Also I’d love to know what in these specific comments have anything “libtard” about it. The biden admins approach to bird flu was to pretend it essentially didn’t exist but without the right wing level of denial. Whole lot of downplay.
My comments about liberals in general comes from the perspective of a queer woman who has watched the democrats DO NOTHING FOR THE PAST 25 YEARS TO STOP FASCISM AND ARE COMPLACENT AND COMPLICIT IN ITS RISE. take that liberals. How’s vote blue no matter who working for ya??? People like me are now in the crosshairs because liberals rather lose to fascists than upset capitalists.
Not doing enough is not the same as doing nothing.
Look at how much was done on day fucking one of “Trump’s America” and know how much bullshit they were holding back.
Is the party largely corrupt and ineffectual at effecting long-standing change? Sure. But they’re also not actively seeking the destruction of everything “weird” their opponents blame for all things awful that goes on in the world.
The most important thing they haven’t done is stop the conditions that led to trumps rise. Stop trump via the j6 investigation. It’s almost like they’re doing it on purpose at this point.
He could of mandated testing in agriculture, wastewater, contact tracing of agriculture workers, etc. Obama had a whole robust pandemic response planned just in case because bird flu is nothing new and it was always a question of if rather than when but after the politicization of covid biden decided that doing any kind of prep for it is a political third rail which is absolute fucking insanity. I mean the CDC was still pretending covid is droplets and not airborne! Barely any public communication about masking and all about hand washing, and when there was anything about masking it was always useless baggy blue diaper surgical masks that don’t do shit instead of proper fitting n95s that actually work.
They don’t give a shit. The vaccines are profitable, screw cheap physical prevention. Stock line must go up!
I’m talking about current messaging. I knew from day one they were lying through their teeth about it not being airborne and not needing masks.
Oh well. I guess liberals will get to be gleefully blaming trump for bird flu when it inevitably becomes a human pandemic despite the fact that biden was 100% complicit in not stopping its spread.
You know the “day one” messaging was because they didn’t know how exactly it was transmitted in most cases, right? Not because they were intentionally lying.
The paper surgical masks were still better then nothing and there simply weren’t enough n95 masks to go around.
Besides, many people were not being infected from breathing it in. They were infected from droplets being unintentionally spat in their eyes. Eye protection was also recommended, which is probably how I avoided ever catching it.
The surgical masks would still prevent the wearer from spreading it to other people because it would stop spit.
Lmao I’m sure youre proud you are man Donald has already undone what little Biden did to stop Israel. And that the party of “Jewish space lasers” is in power again.
I speak for every queer person with a conscience and more than 2 braincells.
Yeah exactly it needs to fought, hence why you vote against the guy threatening to genocide people. Instead of wasting in on a random third party so you can be insufferably smug to strangers on the internet because you past a meaningless purity test instead of ACTUALLY doing something that would help.
If you want to call me a lib, sure I would rather be a lib that reduces suffering, if only the tiniest but, than whatever the fuck you are sitting behind your keyboard jerking yourself off over how virtuous you are while you do literally nothing to help anyone.
Give 'em a week and they’ll find a way to blame Biden or Kamala for the bird flu
To be fair it’s not like they did anything to stop it

Sure, I’ll raise chickens in my apartment. What could possibly go wrong?

Shit homie youre so far left you spew gop talking points and use gop lingo…wait…
“Liberals can’t fathom a world that exists outside of their narrow red-blue spectrum.”
“You sound just like somebody on the red team!”
Hilarious.
Strawman. I fucking hate the fascists and those who led us to them - the liberals.
Both are the party of capitalism, imperialism, endless war, fucking over the poor and working class.

Biden has no more control to limit bird flu then is already happening and neither does Trump.
The point of the post wasn’t to lay the blame of bird flu on Trump, but point out the media manipulation that Fox is doing on behalf of Trump.
He could of mandated testing in agriculture, wastewater, contact tracing of agriculture workers, etc. Obama had a whole robust pandemic response planned just in case because bird flu is nothing new and it was always a question of if rather than when but after the politicization of covid biden decided that doing any kind of prep for it is a political third rail which is absolute fucking insanity.

You’re a few years out of date on recommended covid practices. Well, there are no covid practices anymore, so maybe not.

Who did you vote for?
De la Cruz.
Congrats helping Republicans win. You’re also responsible for this along with MAGAts.
Also, I’m going to block you so have fun screaming in the void when you reply.
ELECTORAL COLLEGE, DIPSHIT…
On behalf of every trans person in America: go fuck yourself.
Wow, you speak for all trans people? How did you get that job?
By not being a piece of shit that puts their own superiority complex over doing the right thing.
On behalf of the queer gender conforming antizionist jew you’re speaking to, go fuck yourself shit lib. The genocide is coming for us all.
You don’t speak for all queer people.
Lmao I’m sure youre proud you are man Donald has already undone what little Biden did to stop Israel. And that the party of “Jewish space lasers” is in power again.
I speak for every queer person with a conscience and more than 2 braincells.
I’m sure you’re proud to vote for a genocider. You’ll be next, me too. Genocide needs to be fought not appeased, Weimar Republic lib.
Yeah exactly it needs to fought, hence why you vote against the guy threatening to genocide people.
