Source? Some googling turned up nothing like this.

Also the Onion. They're supposed to be satirical, of course, but reality is so insane right now that they're basically just reporting on the actual news in a comedic way.

Women can get pregnant so there is the possibility of an affair pregnancy, STDs work differently for men and women social and emotional standards are different.

Except for the social part to an extent, none of that is inherently true. Trans people obviously complicate a lot of those assumptions, but also cis people can have their personal issues that diverge from the commonassumptions. I would guess the idea is to encourage treating people as unique individuals rather than as stereotypes.

The fundamental basis of conservatism is that freedom means having power over other people. Therefore they believe that any attempt to extend freedom to others means taking it away from them.

Eradication =/= extermination. The latter means zero left alive on the whole planet. The fact that the US stopped at clearing screworms from only North America while leaving them alive in the south (and Cuba) always left the possibility of this happening.

This is really bad. The US should have put in the funds to exterminate this thing while we still had a functioning government. I dislike the article's focus on prices as the main consequence here. Screwworms are fucking horrifying, and they can affect humans, too.

Sorry, Harvard is a stronghold of the left now? What do words even mean?

"You can beat the rap but you can't beat the ride." This has been a police intimidation and harassment tool for a long time, now being openly deployed by the US president against his political opponents.

Watch Trump give lucrative disaster response contracts to private companies owned by his biggest donors. Maybe Musk will dump a bunch of cybertrucks on the government somehow.
