1·11 days agoThey have more doctors per capita than any other country, a longer life expectancy than America, more accessable healthcare (even rural areas get clinics, doctors are required to do x years in rural communities in exchange for free medical school) and regularly develop effective vaccines for types of cancer and recently, a treatment for alzheimers.
They do this while under a blockade from a superpower right nextdoor. Imagine what a country with first-world resources could do.

3·12 days agoUltimately triangulation just allows the dems to justify to their voters why they aren’t doing what the voters want, and instead doing what their donors want. Its always been electorally dumb, hence why you never see republicans use it.
I don’t believe it is a conspiracy so much as a system where politicians who bring in more money have more influence and are surrounded by staffers who get filtered by income and ideology.

politics @lemmy.world•Iowa Dem Josh Turek Releases Anti-trans Ad Calling For A Federal Funding Ban On Trans Care
301·19 days agoCalling for a ban on federal funding for trans care isn’t “not fighting”.
This is the same shit we saw in 2023 when democrats campaigned on military spending and migrant caravans. You can choose to ignore random shit the republicans are running with, you can tell voters why its fucking stupid, but if you try to triangulate your position to be closer to the republican one, you make it look like the republicans were right all along.
This dipshit is literally campaigning for republicans at this point.
