ANYONE, straight, bi, gay, trans, male, female can have HIV etc.
Many say it's scientifically valid for these rules to be put in place because apparantly people that to anal are more likely to have these illnesses (I don't know if it's true or not so don't come after me if that's false, please). Several straight people do anal as well. If anything they could check for illnesses before collecting the plasma. It's not like only gay folks can have these illnesses. I also saw someone commenting that even if you have HIV or smthn it can be cleared out so the blood is clean. If that's true that's cool, but if anything, maybe there should be a routine check up (regarldess of sex, gender and sexuality) before giving plasma/blood, to eliminate that risk completely. Idk, just a thought. NOT AT ALL saying these regulations for gay men are valid or okay in any way, I hope you got my point here.

@Sam-handwich583 ¡¿¿¿¿¿¿¿???¡¿¡¿?¿???... huhh? Those two sentences were so incredibly confusing that I can't even gather some reasonable words to find a reasonable reply myself. Wow, that takes skills.. congratulations, dude. I feel like I must applaud you for that achievement. It's hard to make a couple of even short sentences that meaningless, making ot impossible for me to resist pointing it out. After reading whatever that was, I couldn't jusr let it go.. move on. I couldn't do it. I now literally feel entitled to an explanation, so I don't have to lay awake all night, analyzing your attempt at formulating something that was supposed to be two english sentences, so I can comtinue my life without the agony of trying to understand something so insanely impossible to understand.
Please help me, I'm confused, in agony, unable to rest and find peace. This is serious. This truly is a great mystery that needs to be solved pronto.
I'm not okay.. this was the last straw that finally completely broke me. Without an answer, a proper exolanation, I'll have to be admitted to the psych ward, and die suffering. This is serious business.
WHY ARE YOU SO EVIL, FORCING SUCH TORTURE UPON INNOCENT PEOPLE!?!?¿!???!?¿!!!¿¿?!?!?!¿¿¿?!!?!??¿!???¿!???¿!¿¿¿!?!!!+??¿??? THIS. IS. NOT. OKAY. I NEED ANSWERS. I DESERVE ANSWERS!!!!!!! NOW!!!

Yeah..
I mean.. I totally get where she's coming from and all that, and I absolutely agree that we need to seriously reimagine what policing in America looks like, but I don't believe completely getting rid of all policing is the solution.
It's absolutely impossible to get rid of all crime, so we do need law enforcement to do just that - enforce the law. I'm totally for the concept of dradtically shrinking the police funding and number of police, and instead offer strong social programs that prevents crime from happening.. but even in the most utopic and safe world, crime will never be eradicated. We should absolutely focus more on prevention, that's key to true reform and justice.. but that's complicated, and requires reform on not just policing, but every other aspect of governing. That includes ensuring affordable and quality housing for every single person, ensuring affordable/free, quality and accessable health care to again literally every single person, ensuring every single person quality employment with quality pay, the list goes on.. you get the idea. The thing is though, even with all these things in place, you'll never be able to 100% prevent all crime. Proper policing is not just about preventing crime, but bringing justice when it occurs, which it always inevitably will. That's just the sad reality.
We need reasonable solutions that actually makes sense. American policing today is totally indefensable, and it needs to drastically and systematically change. We need to look more at alternatives to deal with homeless people, domestic disputes, drug issues, mental health crisis', and all non-violent offenses, but as well look critically at all existing laws, and reevaluate what we deem illegal and not. Prison reform is also massively important, as well as complete drug reform. Policing is a massive issue, but by far not the only issue. Police unions needs drastic change as well.
I just think that colmpletely aboloshing the police isn't reasonable.. a dradtic reduction on the other hand is reasonable AND necessary. Redistributing funding is as well - that's one of the more attainable solutions to the issue at large. Social programs supporting lifting people up and out of desperation, homelessness, health issues including drug addiction and all of these things are real solutions that can be done. Completely aboloshing the police simply isn't realistic. I certainly wish that COULD be a reality, but that's wishful thinking. We need to look at other solutions. I recommend looking at how other countries, those with the least amount of crime are doing policing.. they're obiviously doing something right, and have figured out great stuff that America hasn't yet. That includes getting money and "lobbying", aka legal bribery out of politics, so real solutions CAN take place, instead of quality, meaningful policies being dead at arrival due to police unions, prison "lobbyists" etc. bribing politicians to not change anything.
Money in politics is what we keep coming back to - it truly is the root of all evil, and the thing that mostly obstructs progress from taking place.

Logical? Nah.

I've got one word for ya - FASCISM.
It's back in full swing. Brace yourselves for impact and keep fighting for DEMOCRACY.
Keep voting democratic, progressive whenever it's possible. Even an establishment/corporate democrat is better than the blatantly evil (non-)alternative, the fascist party, formely known as the GOP, then GQP, aka the Repukelikkkunt party.
Unfortunately, democrats aren't exactly providing any reasons for you to vote for them. However, that is FAR BETTER than just allowing democracy to perish.. and that's EXACTLY what you'll get by not voting for democrats. They're at the very least not actively trying to take away your rights and democracy at large. The bar is honestly incredibly low, but in order for progress to even be possible, fascism cannot take a hold. Whatever you do, contonue voting anti-fascist.

@Smulpaap123 That's just bullshit. Excuse me, but that's complete bullshit. - outsider looking in, myself.
The point in impeachment is not only getting someone out of office, that's already done, so that's not the problem. The problem is setting a precedent and holding someone accountable, as well as preventing someone from holding office again (+ the country not wanting to pay even more taxes to someone that doesn't care about the tax payers at all, considering amongst other things that he's barely paid taxes). THAT'S THE POINT.
Also, blaming democrats for this is like blaming a rape victim for being raped. Do you remember (most) democrats/liberals actually giving him a fair chance at holding the office with respect? They did that, but now that they've done that for too long they have no choice but to go down hard in this. To show that this is not okay. We're not talking about jaywalking here. This is big stuff. Holding someone accountable does not equal disregarding unity.
The democrats tried teaching for unity and some common ground when the former "president" took office, DESPITE him actually losing the popular vote. This time, despite Biden actually WINNING the popular vote, republikkkans refuse to even give the new leaders a chance. Answer me this - how is THAT helping to unify ANYTHING? Stop blaming democrats/libs for everything while not expecting the same from republikkkans. You KNOW* that if the tables were flipped, republikkkans would have a completely different tone than they do now.
How can you claim you want unity when "your" (not saying yours personally) party promotes dangerous lies about fraud that have been disproven time and time again AND several republikkkans (both regular citizens and politicians) speak about medieval executions, like hanging their opponents? PLEASE TELL ME HOW THAT IS SUPPOSED TO UNIFY ANYONE BECAUSE I CAN'T, AND NO OTHER REASONABLE HUMAN BEING CAN. PLEASE. TELL. ME.
-edit, writing error.
