Fucking tired of people who suddenly see a problem when a) it happens to them or b) when they're no longer relying on the problem for their income.
"If I'm in this situation with my knowledge and with my financial resources and with my bully pulpit, then the average Joe doesn't stand a chance. The system is just broken," Adams said.
To be fair to him, it seems to be a common thread with many in the medical profession, probably because they dedicate themselves to a system that is fundamentally broken. Even the likes of Doctor Mike (Medical YouTuber, whose content I really enjoy) have painted things like universal healthcare in a way that highlights the problems without painting the full picture of why (systemic underfunding to push privatisation).
I don't want to excuse it, but it's a very common problem that few want to address in the field.
I think doctors know as much if not more than anyone how broken the system is and how it constantly fails people, disagreements more about what to do about it and fears about change.
And there's certainly some physicians organizing in support of single payer.
A lot of doctors are concerned about how much say or influence they would have in such a health system, but hey not like they have much as it is as everything has become giant conglomerates run by MBAs and private equity, so not much to lose. At least government is theoretically beholden to the people.
Doctor Mike lost any respect I had for him after his behaviour during the pandemic. He is a content creator far above being an actual medical professional.
How so?
I'm out of the loop.

On November 12, 2020,[20] for his 31st birthday, Varshavski traveled to Miami to attend a beach party that was also attended by a number of other people without masks, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Footage of the event was posted on Instagram and went viral, particularly on Reddit.[21] On November 18, Varshavski apologized for his actions in a YouTube video,[22] saying he "messed up" and he needed "to do better".[23] His attendance of the party was criticized by medical professionals. Bioethicist Arthur Caplan, director of the division of medical ethics at NYU Langone Health, said Varshavski "fails completely in being an appropriate role model and he should be called out, and he deserves even more criticism than he's getting so far."[23]
Thank you
I mean.. that's kind of why we never stop ranting and raving... To force them to find new sources of compassion and to find empathy for the other which they weren't taught by their family of origin. I'm tired of dealing with half the country being raised like thoughtless sociopathic fucking savages and eating the poor and each other.
