The guy demands to be the face of the pandemic response in the US. The US had the world's worst response. What's to like about Fauci? That one time he gently shook his head as Trump behaved like a mad king? He embodies a pandemic response plan that put landlords + finance first and is fucking all of us in so many ways. Yeah, much of this is beyond Fauci's personal control + due to other issues but still, fuck Fauci.
It's definitely that. Some people will say that he was responsible for Reagan admins bigoted AIDs response, but I looked into that and its just straight up misinformation.
face of the covid response, has supported both administration's shit-ass responses. acknowledged that he'd be fired if he stood up to them but we really shouldn't have to respect spineless bureaucrats
because if he was about 10 years younger he'd be the Giuliani of covid.
