    If OSHA mandated all employees brush their teeth, that would be government overreach, to be sure. But you'd still have to be quite the loon to refuse to brush your teeth.

    I’ll repeat myself: don’t comply. If all of us ignore this garbage they won’t be able to enforce it.

    Many people find pleasure in hatred and are always on the lookout for a group it's socially acceptable (and morally satisfying) to hate.

    It’s remarkable how thin the liberal commitment to universal health care becomes when the liberal thinks the person who might need health care voted for Trump.

    Good thread from . Ridiculing an outgroup might be emotionally satisfying, given our nastier impulses, but persuasion is the better path.

    11. If you're someone who believes that *disdainful ridicule* would be preferable to and more effective than my method when it comes to persuading people on this matter of public health (I'm not talking about here), then I have a parting challenge for you:
