  • No, one doesn’t have to entertain any such notion. And, one speaking like a monk doesn’t make one sound mysterious or intelligent…

    What you’re essentially saying is, we should let something terrible continue to happen, causing many real people (often children) to actually die, because some people are paranoid about something that isn’t happening… In reality, government’s need their civilians. Especially in late-stage capitalist societies were civilians act as value generators or cannon fodder for the ruling class. The more people they have to feed into their profit machines, the better.

    There are many counter arguments to the sentiment you shared that show how silly your stance is. I won’t waste my time writing all of them because I think you’re too steeped in your own soup to consider anything that counters what you already believe.




  • Well… The surgeon wasn’t very good… He made multiple mistakes, that I’m aware of, and my issue is coming back a little over a year after the surgery… Now with staph infections because he used non-degradable sutures on the inside and they’re coming out! And I still haven’t financially recovered from the last round… Yay America!

    Sorry, I’m not trying to unload on you. Really just venting to the void. No need to respond to this one haha.

    Thank you for reading and sympathizing.


  • Same! I’ve dealt with several major health issues and been burned so many times. I spent almost a full year bed ridden, waiting for a surgery that was deemed “elective” when I could barely walk, and was in 10/10 pain while on the max amount of pain killers, and fighting with insurance every step of the way to have them cover things my plan covered. All the while, bleeding thousands of dollars to get all kinds of tests done, sometimes multiple times for the same test, and at an already significant financial strain due to being mostly bedridden… Anyone that tells me the healthcare system in this country is OK gets a 20 minute lecture, minimum.

    Anyways, I found a seemingly legitimate primary care physician the other day. He was available, on time, knowledgeable, his staff could answer questions, and knew how to read blood pressure correctly. I was astonished. I’m still waiting to find out how his office is too good to be true but, in the mean time… 🤞
