    It's fucking gross that as a postal worker I could've been fired for not disclosing that I received more than $25 from a customer in gifts, which is very common around the holidays for letter carriers but the supreme court can get away with this bullshit.

      You can’t be paid but you would absolutely be allowed to go on a trip if a customer invited you. That’s what they do to get around, and how do you stop that? Tell judges they aren’t allowed to be friends with certain people? Not allowed to go on vacation? Creating rules like that would be near impossible or impractical. I understand what you’re saying, I also thinks it’s gross, but it’s not something that is easy to make laws for.

      I mean it is though? If you receive a gift, vacation, item etc. over a certain dollar amount then you have to disclose it (they didn't by the way which is already in violation of existing laws for other less impactful jobs). And, notably, if that gift was given to you by someone who is involved in a case you are presiding over, you should be required to recuse yourself. It's not about being "friends" with certain people or going on vacations. It's about the most powerful judges in the land not being held to a standard many professions already are being held to.​@@djalex8080

      @@djalex8080 The problem is that the livelihood of democracy in the US is essentially in the hands of these Supreme Court judges. Just like how a therapist would be fired for accepting any gifts from their patients because of the ethical harm it poses, the Supreme Court’s personal decisions also pose real risk and harm to their ‘patients’ (the public). It should not need to be written into law that those in the most powerful position in the country ought to consider the moral and ethical implications of their every decision before acting. It should just be expected. If not, then the people have the right to replace them.

    I’m so glad you shared what you did about race-based medicine. I’m a practicing nurse who graduated from one of the top 5 nursing schools in the country. Part of our DEI-focused education was learning that black patients could be better treated by these medications, so they were the best option for them even though it’s an older and more expensive medication than others. My teacher essentially told us that the only patients who should start on this medication before other treatments (instead of as a back up if other, more affordable options didn’t work), was black patients. Thank you so much for reeducating me and others in our community because, as we’ve seen with vaccinations, bad science can have ripple effects for DECADES and can even mislead medical professionals.

    I was a 911 dispatcher for a county government. I entered a contest with a radio station to win concert tickets, it was a “How hard is your job?” Contest because the concert was to Dolly Parton (plays into her song 9-5). I came in second place and they wanted to come to the department and just sit with me for an hour. When the Lieutenant found out he put a stop to it, I could not benefit from my job beyond my salary and benefits. Why are Supreme Court Justices allowed to receive all that?!

    My ex worked at Dollar Tree and they are chronically understaffed. She was promoted to assistant manager (still hourly) and basically asked her to do everything because they couldn't hire people quick enough to replace the ones who quit. They also frequently asked her to punch out for her break but still work off the clock to save on hours. She was transferred to a different store and it happened there too. Seemed common at least in the district she worked in. She called me up crying asking if we'd be okay if she just quit. I told her to do it and we'd make it work.

First misuse, their phone is taken for the day and parents must collect it at the end of the day. 2nd offence, phone is taken for a week and they must sign a contract admitting their wrongdoing and the consequences of a third offence. Third offence, phone permanently banned by student and further disruption can/ will result in expulsion. Parents and student must sign the second contract. 😂 It works!!

      What's sadder is that it's actually something that happens often in Dollar Tree stores. I used to work for them for a few years. In those years, we had people who diddle themselves in public while gawking at the kids who were with their parents in the store. I told my manager about it, but she said that the protocol is to not do anything because they could be on drugs or heavily mentally unstable and could harm the employee. Since our stores have no security, we've also seen customers come running from the parking lot crying because they had just been raped 10 feet away from the entrance. We do call for the police on those cases, but it's only because it was after the perp leaves. It's a strategy for the company to save money on security and workers comp for employees that do get hurt trying to protect others. The cashiers are the stockers, janitors, and store front. Cashiers are young as 16 years of age, so it's a good idea for them not to confront anyone, but we definitely need at least a security guard that is trained to handle those situations from being further escalated

The two Commissioners believe the clubs are anti-Semitic and have ignored the clubs' explanations of their traditions and symbols and pleas that this is about the children and not political views.

    Family Dollar employee here, another dollar store owned by the same company Dollar Tree is, and the safety for both staff and customers is of little priority to those higher up the food chain. They cut back on hours which leads to many instances where employees are left by themselves to handle and watch the whole store. Closing shifts have a maximum of 2 people for them with no mid shifts to cover high traffic times. I, a female, have had numerous times where guys have gotten way too close, trying to rub my arms or hands, or said the things they could do to me while asking when I get off of work.

    Race based medicine also severely effects undiagnosed Autistics &/or ADHDers. I'm AuDHD & it's well known within our community to be equated to "Little White Boy Syndome" because if you're not white, 4-8 years old, assigned male at birth, "you don't LOOK Autistic" is the most common thing said to non-cis male &/or non-white &/or adult Autistic folks. Autism doesn't have a "look", & I displayed all the same symptoms as an AMAB child from 6 years old & was misdiagnosed & given all the wrong drugs & mistreatment & neglect & abuse that turned into PTSD & cPTSD. I was diagnosed ADHD at 13/14 but never told, never given meds, found out when I got screamed at by one of my bosses about my attention & cried at home & got laughed at by my abusive parent as they said "oh its just your ADD" & I was like... "I'm sorry, WHAT?!" ...
    "I thought you knew! Hahahhaha that's even funnier."
    "How could I know when you didn't tell me?"
    "I thought you would figure it out. It's no big deal."
    I proceeded to have a meltdown after, as all my memories & the invalidation of my struggles came flooding in.
    I struggled so much in school & stayed a whole extra year, failed English 11 twice, & 12 once, was exempt from the Math provincial, was in special Ed class, had other diagnosises I was not told. Like dyslexia. Skipped 50% of my entire grade 9 grade, had after school tutoring & managed to pass my classes. When I skipped class, I just hung out with my on again/off again GF or other queer &/or Autistic/ADHD friends & often doing homework from other classes or reading books at the library or going to my cafeteria class & asking to do work, even laundry, when I had another block (such a rebel lmao). They started giving me spare blocks instead & I did much better. I pushed hard to graduate at 19, diagnosed with some things & never told & hated myself & always thought I was the problem & was always told I was, & neglected to straight up abused (emotional/mental/physical/verbal/psychological) by parent, grandparent, some teachers, & my teenagehood family "doctor".
    Got re-diagnosed with both ADD & ADHD at 19/20 (yeah it was a confusing time for me), was told they could "cure" my ADHD but it was $4 a pill & I couldn't afford that.
    It was all a fight to get proper help & treatment for being Autistic as where I live adult Autistics aren't allowed/is no protocol to diagnose past certain ages & for none at all for Indigenous peoples. So to get treatment & therapy I had to be misdiagnosed on paper while I had counsellors, therapists, psychiastrists & a psychologist all agreed but couldn't offically diagnosed me. I got so many resources & my whole world makes sense & it was so validating but it took until my late 20's & PTSD episodes & being hospitalized for it & finally diagnosed with c-PTSD & PTSD from 2 specific instances for anyone to take me seriously (one of which after 2 years of therapy & mushrooms I was able to overcome & change my internal process for, but the other so severe I can't mention without the trigger starting & being taken right back into the incidents).
    There was a paramedic that came to get me for severe abdominal pain, & I am self soothing, scared, I don't know if I should go just to be told I'm faking, but my blood pressure & skin paleness & dizziness said I was in a loooot of pain, & I'm holding my Toothless plush & rocking back & forth & repeating things to say or what to ask or if this was worth it or was it serious or what if I'm just inconviencing others or how loud the hospital was or do I have a hospital bag ready or holding Toothless's hand & telling him it's okay, & when he came up, I watched his feet, I made no eye contact & I was so overstimulated.
    I let him know first thing I was Autistic, as this helps when Drs/paramedics handle/understand/speak to me, & the first thing he said was I "didn't look Autistic" while laughing, & I said "I get that a lot", & asked if he "had an Autistic nephew" & he stared, stunned, "How did you know that?!" 🤦‍♂️🙃💙🫂
    Every time I experience this, I immediately think of how much HARDER it would be if I was born a different skin colour & constantly get in arguements with white cis male Autistics about their racism & sexism (especially if they were diagnosed Aspergers & refuse to let go of the term & defend it like a badge of honour. Except Jewish 'Aspergers' were given yellow stars/Jewish badges instead. Were murdered, tested on, & killed with the 'lesser' Autistics (& Jewish/suspected Jewish people) that don't reach the 'Asperger' threshhold of "better than" & "useful" & classist, discrimanatory behaviour amongst the Autistic community itself is rampent still because of the same standards perpetuated by Allistics ((non-Autistics)) to this day. Also perpetuating to hide being Autistic or "quirky" (which is typically to hide Autistic joy that runs through our whole bodies) & being forced to assimilate or be ostricized. Even when/if one does assimilate into "Neurotpyical" society, (I couldn't because I can't mask), still can't fit in because our brains are literally different & process different & both diagnosed & undiagnosed Autistics in their late 20's to 40's suffer Autistic burnout, lose their jobs, feel like they are going insane, (many undiagnosed & diagnosed Autistic AMAB committing suicide too - average age 36), only to discover - if they are fortunate enough - it's Autism. Discovering they are fighting to live in not only a non-Autistic world, but anti-Autistic. My friend & I talked about ableism & I came up with "All stairs build are ableist" & they came up with "All standardized tests are ableist" & had lots of those, & felt very validating why we struggled so much).

      While Samuel Chase was the only Justice to be impeached, Abe Fortas stepped down as a Justice back in 1969 because he received a secret $15,ooo retainer from some indicted Wall Street financier who wanted legal advice. The Congress made enough of a stink that Fortas just resigned. Adjusted for inflation, that retainer is LESS ($135k) than the total amount of "gifts" Thomas has received over his 20yrs as a Justice ($213k). And that's the money we KNOW about, and he gets to remain a Supreme Court Justice. Those gifts only started happening after Clarence was "Loud Budgeting" about his pay, lifting the ban on speaking fees for Justices and wanting to retire if his pay wasn't increased back in 2000. This was all after he had incurred more expenses and 100s of dollars worth of debt at the time.
      Meanwhile people have been complaining about Justices having fun billionaire funded (and attended) vacations back when Alito died during a paid hunting trip of some billionaire he was a guest of. And everybody just made excuses or just brushed off the implied impropriety of it entirely.

      Also sickle cell is developed because of an evolutionary trait to protect from malaria, likely because over half the world population lives in malaria infested places. Take that and combine that with 400 years of slavery, with black people being forced to work out in the hot sun or in the blistering cold, DNA wise, that's going to leave a mark.

    I used to work for a municipality in a department that handled elections among other things. Though recounts across the state were rare, they did happen, and when they did, often the Town or City Clerk would ask for department volunteers from other cities and towns to assist, since we knew election law better. One particular recount I volunteered for was a hand recount, and the end results ended up being exactly the same as the initial tabulator results. We split each precinct up and paired off in groups of two - one to read the names, and one to check the boxes. Each candidate was allowed one observer per volunteer, so I had two observers for my role as the box-checker. For the most part, things went smoothly, but the observer from the "losing" side kept interrupting, complaining that she couldn't see who I was checking off until I actually checked them off. I usually write with both arms resting on the table, but to accommodate her, I moved my arms to my lap and made exaggerated open moves so she would see exactly where my pen was before I checked off the box. That wasn't good enough, so I added verbal confirmations of what the reader was telling me before I checked the box. That wasn't good enough either, and she called the warden over to complain about me, but everyone else at the table from both sides tried to explain to her that I was doing exactly what I was supposed to be doing.
    Bottom line: Observe all you want. If there are fishy things going on, say something. Otherwise, let us do our jobs. We don't have "agendas" to sway election results one way or another. We are honestly trying to make sure the election is lawful and fair.

    So I am a mixed race man who is part Black, Latino, and White. Although I identify as a black mixed raced person, I know that isn't the totality of my genetics, and even if it were, I've been aware for a while now of the debunking of "race essentialism." I've come to not want to put my race on most documents, but especially medical documents. However, when I signed up with my most recent primary care hospital 4 years ago, the assistant who was taking my information down before my PCP came in asked me about my race. I told her I was mixed raced, and she said that wasn't an option. I said that I didn't want disclose my race then, and she said she couldn't finish without putting something. After a little bit of back and forth of my insisting that I was mixed raced, I could tell she was getting annoyed and she asked me what my father was. I asked her what that had to do with anything, and she said "I don't know. I think it has something to do with race being determined from the father's side. I don't really have more details than that." So an example of where a probing question did nothing, because she didn't seem to understand it. Also, that was one of the craziest race science answers I could have ever expected. Wanting to get on with my visit, I just told her that he was black.
    But I find it hard to believe she wouldn't have kept probing if I said he was white. Because I've only ever been mistaken for white once. If you look at my page, I think it's obvious I don't meet the US' standard for "white." Funny enough, the one time I was mistaken for white was at my LAST doctor when I lived in LA, and I was out in the sun all of the time, so I was even darker. A very old white man who came in the room not looking at me writing things on a clipboard. After his questions, he began speaking into a tape recorder. One thing he said was "the patient was a white male" (which he did not ask in his list of questions), and when he was done talking, I very uncomfortably said "...I'm not white." And he just looks up and says after a beat of realizing he hadn't looked at me yet, he just said, "...oh." So I guess I would have gotten poor, inattentive care there, regardless of my race! 😅😐

    To be clear, the problem with "race based adjustments" ISN'T that there aren't _trends_ in that some races _tend_ to have some differences to others. The problem is that "race" itself -- as in, the categories we construct, that's not what actually is _causing_ the difference. If one group is generally more likely to live in an area with worse air quality, they likely will have worse lungs. Neither "Race" nor biology caused that -- the air quality did. Even if there IS a connection to biology, it's only rarely, if ever, related to "race" itself (as in, an essential or immutable characteristic of a given population). More often, it's an adaptation that is more common in some groups than others (like eumelanin production). Higher rates of eumelanin production cause darker skin colors, as is common in people with African or South Asian ancestry. But this doesn't mean every person with such ancestry will experience higher rates of eumelanin production relative to others, nor that every person _without_ such ancestry would experience _lower_ rates of eumelanin production relative to others. Even if it did, not everyone with African or South Asian ancestry will recognize it, and even many who recognize it will not identify with a corresponding "race" (ie: black, Indian). Even if they did, that doesn't mean members of these populations are "immune" from the risks of excess sunlight exposure, as is commonly supposed. So, you just end up with a lot of discrepancies that can be very dangerous in clinical medicine -- imagine someone simply assumes you don't have a skin condition because they "don't think it can occur in your population"... very scary. (Also, to all my black and south Asian brothers and sisters out there, y'all can sunburn too! Even if it's less likely, all of that unprotected exposure is NOT good for ya!)

      ​@@1st2nd2 The thing is, _race_ is not causing these differences -- rather, it presents a crude and often poor approximation for a far more complex reality of human variation (genetic and socially-induced).
      Take the Sickle Cell example -- the higher rate of occurrence in African Americans _is_ real. But a conclusion that it is a "Black person's condition" is flatly false, and must be guarded against. Sickle Cell arises from a "maladaptive" mutation against malaria infection. It may manifest in a descendant of *any* population with historically high exposure to that disease -- including indigenous Southern Europeans (Malaria used to be a far bigger problem there during the ancient past), Levantines & Arabians, and South Asians. Africa currently has the largest surface area exposed to the disease, so it makes sense most occurrences of Sickle Cell arise from those with African Ancestors. But it is not their "Africanity" or "Blackness" causing this. In fact, the trait is extremely rare in many parts of Africa, including most of Southern Africa and Eastern Africa; it is most common in West/Central Africa (the regions where most African Diaspora happen to find their African ancestry), and somewhat common in North Africa, a region whose indigenous inhabitants are not even typically considered "Black".
      So, treating sickle cell as a "race trait" falls short of fully comprehending its nature (even before we get into the complexities of self-identification and racial perception by a doctor looking to make a diagnosis of a condition); understanding why it is more likely to manifest in certain populations is more useful a starting point. "Race" may be a lead, but that's all it functions as. There are too many discrepancies, and these are discrepancies we need to account for when trying to best diagnose and treat patients who may present any number of genetic complexities.
      So, when we treat "race" as biologically or genetically valid, we essentially enable bad practice. One of the biggest dangers is that we set ourselves up to lazily conclude that "race itself" is causing an observed difference, as if there were a "race indicator" that simply changes one's stats as in a video game, instead of digging deeper to understand the true nature of things. I've presented this with respect to Sickle Cell, but this reasoning applies to so many other things. We shut ourselves off from a lot of knowledge when we simply chose to rely on "race"... thus, it is not only lazy -- it is dangerous. As De Franco outlines in his discussion in-video, it is also just plain bad science which can cause demonstrable harm.
