Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

And now we're two paragraphs off topic.
The sky is blue too. Did you know that?
Anyway, I don't think you get to dictate what worries me. I'm sorry that news of my country's worsening Healthcare situation worries me.
I'm sorry that you are incapable of expirencing worry more than once on a topic. It must be very difficult for you to decide the one time you get to feel worried about something. If you use it too soon then you did not express your worry at the right time and that is just tragic
Again, you provided a call to action and it baffles several people. You might be used to quick swapping who is the receiver with the people around you and it is a bastard to get rid of such behaviour, so I get it. By swapping who is attempting to dictate whose emotions here, you hope for a painless sleight of hand weaseling of your statement without having to claim the fruits of it. Trust me, it will come back to bite ya eventually. It's best to face it. It's actually not time for people to rise up and worry together over the healthcare system. The time for it has passed. It is now time to meet the reality of that failing human right has been a systematic dismantlement and realise it was a symptom of hyper capitalist fascism, that is now rampant and that now demand urgent attention to even be able to address ANY concern about health, you must be free to even address concerns and express worry! I really hope you get why this is aggravating these replies. Brother I do get what you are saying and i'm not disagreeing with any of it, and I appreciate your replies and arguments on the issue. I just hope to forward the reasoning of the replies and reactions you get when you say it. It feels just naive to just now activate a cell of sofa sitting keyboard worriers, that will rise up and worry together about the already completely destroyed health of your population. Your very ability to have any say in even if you get to live a life of servitude due to extreme fast track justice that only has time to look over your ethnicity and tattoos before deciding your life is going to give years in a dangerous lawless prison. It will come for y'all eventually and I truly worry for you and even worry for the rest of the world for what happens when this is properly challenged.
