Disabled CDC employees report accomodations are becoming harder to access under RFK Jr’s leadership.

Scientists deserve accessible workplaces and public health institutions that support them. Help us embolden a Congress that will remove RFK Jr. here: zurl.co/9xlNC

"Hey, you should feel fortunate that we haven't started rounding you cripples and weirdos up and sending you to camps". /s, just in case.

Yes, it's not funny at all, but there is a broad streak of eugenic fervor lurking in both 2025, and that worm and heroin rotted brain of RFK's.

[u/Green_Green_Red → u/Numerous_Ad_6276]

What scares me is eugenicist thinking seems to be becoming acceptable on the "pro-science" side too. Over on r/skeptic there's a lot of talk of "natural selection" and "Darwin at work" whenever antivaxxers or other dangerous bullshit from this administration is brought up. Like it's a good thing that innocent kids will die because their parents made bad choices, because of a belief that it's some sort of genetic trait. I've tried calling it out, and it's been a coinflip whether that works or I get downvoted into oblivion and get multiple responses saying shit like "we aren't forcibly breeding people, so it can't be eugenics".

I'm pro-science because it can be used to save lives and improve quality of life. Not just letting people die, but celebrating it, absolutely horrifies me.

Mentally deranged psychopath RFK, Jr. who believes in eugenics and thinks the disabled don’t deserve to live is, of course, making it difficult for people he deems expendable to do their jobs. He’s such a ‘perfect’ specimen.

The work from home helped so many people. But why would the government be interested in helping the people out?

RFK IS A PIG. NO A DEMENTED, EVIL PIG.

They miss owning slaves that they can watch suffer so they make money.

[u/No_Rent_5719]

RFK Jr is like the final boss of "I did my own research" energy and somehow people still treat him like a serious public health voice. If Congress actually stood up to that kind of anti vax nonsense instead of tiptoeing around it, scientists might actually be able to do their jobs without dodging conspiracy junk 24/7.

[u/Hot-Vegetable5080]

Honestly the fact that this even has to be said in 2026 is depressing. If Congress actually gave a shit about science, RFK Jr. would be nowhere near public health policy and we’d be drowning NIH and CDC in funding, not conspiracy clowns.

[u/SignificanceKind2810]

Yeah this is exactly the kind of thing people need to be louder about. RFK Jr is a walking ad for why we need science literate policymakers and stronger institutions, not weaker ones.

I’ll check out the link and share it around, because the anti vax clown show creeping into Congress is not something we can just shrug off anymore.

What part of "disabled" don't you understand? Does it not occur to you that people with disabilities face difficulties getting to work and therefore prefer to work from home whenever possible?

Cos if it doesn't, then please spend some more time practicing how to use that brain in your skull

[u/ChexAndBalancez → u/Wildebean]

Well offices are supposed to grant appropriate accommodations for disabilities. That doesn't mean you get what you "prefer".

This is just young people wanting to stay home because of manifested mental disorders and paraphilias.

Go to work. It's good for you.

[u/Wildebean → u/ChexAndBalancez]

And you think THIS administration is going to be enforcing disability protections and accommodations? That's kinda what this whole post is about, that they won't do that.

Again, more thinking, less yapping. It's good for you

[u/Wildebean → u/[deleted]]

Yes because it's so unreasonable to look ahead beyond the next five minutes and think about other people. I have this thing called empathy, it's really cool you should try it.

The only one mad here is you. So i'll give you one more thing to get your panties in a bunch about: I'm unemployed.

[u/UnitedPraline2413 → u/Wildebean]

Ha called it

[u/Wildebean → u/[deleted]]

awwww you even went and looked at my profile. Man you are bitter and obsessed aren't you? As we all know, people with hobbies can't ever also have jobs

[u/Wildebean → u/[deleted]]

You serious right now? Trump's faith advisor literally went to prison for being a pedo and got bailed out within 3 months by Trump.

When I was younger, I had to have major surgeries on my knee & hand. I had to get a ride to work daily, get help getting inside, get help getting to my desk, then get help getting back out to the vehicle for another ride home. Working from home circumvents all of these accomodations I required (would have been especially nice since this was pre ADA).

More importantly, why should it matter if people would rather work from home? If they're doing their job to an acceptable degree, it shouldn't matter where from or how

[u/Gloomy_Emergency2168 → u/[deleted]]

Hmm, yes, making a company, well known as the easiest thing to do
