Perhaps the US should start shutting down the border with right-wing states. Because they're infecting the world with diseases like measles.

By 1992, measles was mostly gone in the US, and eliminated in 2000. This autumn, thanks to the anti-vaccination movement, 1900+ confirmed cases in the US. Mostly in Texas, Utah, and South Carolina. People from these insular unvaccinated communities where the spread is heavy are freely moving to infect other parts of the US despite quarantine protocols... It seems they only put those in place, not at exposure, but when it is already too late and dozens to hundreds are infected. Looks like the whole Thanksgiving thing is going to be the cause of a lot of spreading in the coming months.

I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
