Vice President JD Vance’s Bluesky account was suspended within minutes of him joining the platform. His posts criticized medical treatments for transgender youth and claimed pharmaceutical influence over healthcare decisions.

Says can’t trust experts because they are clouded by ideology and bribed by industry quotes an judicial expert who’s entire job is to inject right wing ideology into the judicial branch while being motivated by bribes.

I still can't believe that a deranged asshole like him is legally allowed to be VP of a nuclear power

What a pos. nobody is "pushing" these medicines on kids. it's ultimately the kid's decision about whether they want these medications or not and I'm not aware of any cases to the contrary. also these medications have been used for literal decades so how can they be experimental? how do you expect people to trust you when you lie so blatantly? glad he got banned.

Happy Pride Month ❤️

Stay classy, MAGA. You don't give two shits about your country, you actually did steal an election, and the backwash is coming.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Did they steal an election ? Or did they still two elections ?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago

Make a new account, immediately start spewing unsubstantiated conspiracy theories, get banned

I gotta say, I am liking blue sky so far

Imagine thinking that one Clarence Thomas is less corrupt than thousands of doctors.

[–] evilcultist 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Coming from Vance, I like how the logic underlying the statements presumes a profit motive undermines the result.

no thanks.

he's got a face only a couch could fuck.

I know several brick walls that would love to fuck his face.

The biggest delusion in modern society is thinking that a Twitter-like social media network is "the place to go for common sense political discussion and analysis".

I keep hearing the media repeat this bullshit. Twitter is not and never was the "public square". It's a place for morons to be morons and heart each other for being morons.

And this is the point where he playbooks "i was just asking questions i was just being reasonable why are you so mean unreasonable leftist echo chamber etcetc"

Which only works when people let it. A swift "you started ranting crazy bullshit" is what is needed here.

He’s not wrong about medical companies influencing patient care. He’s just wrong about who and why.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Exactly. Why would they give patients long out of patent meds that aren't even habit forming for this? Nah, if you want to make money with medicine you gotta go the Sackler route. Every trans person I know's HRT brand of choice is "generic please"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Not only that, but targeting the ~20% of the population that's post-menopausal cis women with all the benefits of HRT would be a WAY bigger market than the 1-5% of the population that might be trans. If it was about making money on HRT, they're certainly not going for a very large market.

Not only that, but wouldn't Big Pharma™ be lobbying heavily against all the anti-trans healthcare bills? Seems like they're doing a pretty awful job of maintaining their market.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 21 minutes ago

They think their movement is beating pharma as their uncle forgets to breathe in the other room

"Anyway, want a 6 months supply of Vicodin?" -The doctors he should actually be worried about.

Apparently, they reinstated it saying they just wanted to confirm it was really him before fully activating it.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago

Corpos will never let you down. Only throw you there.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

I was generally curious why posting that would get him banned. It's def contrary to popular opinions on the platform but doesn't violate any rules.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The thing with his argument is that I just struggle to imagine a scenario in which the experts and affected agree and we're better off listening to judges, lawyers, and politicians instead.

There's no reasonable argument from the avenues I'd listen to those groups (such as appeal to fundamental freedoms, rights of the individual, etc) where the position should be to bar these people from receiving treatment they want against expert recommendations.

In short, Mr Vance demonstrates the intellectual rigor I've come to associate with the denizens of Middletown Ohio, and the firm belief in one's own right to be the arbiter of everyone else's life I've come to associate with his ivy league education and tech background.

This is a man who argued with the pope about catholic doctrine a few years after converting and I honestly can't make up something more exaggerated than that

Isn't he happy with his Truth Social account?

"a screenshot from clearsky showing jd vance's account as the most blocked in 24 hours on bluesky"

it's going well.

also lol'ing at the fact that he's jd-vance-1 because jd-vance was taken by a parody account which has a big banner reading "I did not fuck a couch".

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The account was banned, and then reinstated after being verified.

His first posts didn't get him banned.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

It probably didn't do any favours opening up immediately with obvious troll bait.

Pretty sure he did that on purpose so he can tell the public how awful and disgusting he thinks Bluesky is in the future.

[–] [email protected] 109 points 2 days ago

Oh absolutely. He's a slimy little fuckstain.

I hope his dick rots off, just so he can get to experience gender-affirming care firsthand.

[–] [email protected] 85 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (7 children)

Do you think JD understands the irony that posting an exerpt from Justice Thomas that is against appealing to the authority of "experts", is, in itself, in fact appealing to the authority of an "expert", Justice Thomas, to support his stance? His stance of course being that medical treatment of minors with gender dysphoria in a way that does anything but reinforce the gender on their birth certificate is bad medicine/science. And both Vance and Justice Thomas also, being... I see here "not experts in anything remotely to do with medical science, gender dysphoria, adolescent development, or any field at all that would inform any semblance of a valid opinion on the matter of how to properly treat these kids medically" might, in fact, make their stance a little bit non-authoritative. Maybe both of them should stay in their lanes of bad faith partisan political theatre, bribery, and forcing the sprint we are all on towards fascism. That seems to be where their real skill sets are.

[–] [email protected] 51 points 2 days ago

Do you think JD understands

I'mma stop you right there and say no

James Donald Bowman is a disgrace, a pox on humanity.

And I will use the name he hates against him in every thread I can.

So, here we are. The VP of the supposedly most powerful nation can't even integrate with humans.
