The meme is about how asinine it is to tell anyone critical of society that they can't be critical of it if they participate in it. I have no idea how you got "eating a big mac improves society" from my meme or the response you commented on... 🤔

It doesn't matter whether or not he could have changed anything, no one forced him to take the job as CEO of a corrupt industry. He chose to profit off people's pain and suffering. Why should anyone care what his life was like b4 he made that choice?

Currently waiting 3 months to see my specialist here in the States.

Because that doesn't happen here? It takes months sometimes to see a specialist here in the States. I'm currently waiting 3 to see mine.

If the reports of insurance companies mass accepting claims they would otherwise deny are true, even if this is just a temporary reaction on the company’s part, then the shooter has already saved more lives than he took.

1. Yesterday, Nancy Mace used a slur targeted at transgender people in response to bathroom sit-ins. The slur was posted to her official account, which could pose trouble for her as clear evidence of discriminatory animus in her anti-trans legislation. Subscribe to support my journalism.

Nancy Mace Calls Trans People A Slur After Sit-Ins In Capitol Bathrooms

The congresswoman appeared to be taken by surprise by the protest and was seen wandering the halls of the Senate, a different building than the protestors, holding a bullhorn.

Real or not, they're blocked now. I don't waste my time on misogynists.

Punky @punky618.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

Your comment left out crucial details that point to a broader discussion of misogyny in medicine. It's not about writing an essay, it's about your comment coming off as dismissing the idea that there is sexism at play.

Cathartic for people with no power to see someone who exploits human life for money get their comeuppance for once.

Punky @punky618.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

I think the reaction to it is the big thing, and the social impact is that we are seeing just how angry and fed up people are with the exploitation we experience at the hands of the capitalist class. Even tho this one man's death doesn't mean much in terms of changing systems, it is kind of

That is not what the OP means by "shortens people's lives". They're talking about how health insurance is a for-profit business that routinely denies people life-saving care to increase profits. UHC denies more claims than any other insurer.

In assisted dying debate - people with disabilities are being talked over, shouted at & told their concerns are invalid Ironically - those doing this are proving our point Our lives are not considered worth saving. Our concerns go unheeded. We’re seen as expendable. We have a right to be scared

One of reasons I fear slippery slope into eugenics with assisted dying policies is how little outrage there is when disabled people are harmed When DNRs are put on us without consent. When - like Stephanie Lavoie - we’re denied the care we need to survive & do MAiD instead No one speaks up for us

I am starving in Gaza and I don’t believe the world can’t do anything

Israel tried to starve Gaza before and the international community reacted. Why isn’t it doing anything now?

It was only 4 years ago disabled ppl with Covid were being put on DNR requests in hospitals without consent. It’s only 4 years ago, Covid treatment was rationed based on who needed less treatment due to lack of planning and equipment. This country isn’t responsible enough for assisted dying

Exactly. Nobody wants to talk about how deeply eugenics is ingrained in our systems and how this will be used to push disabled people into "choosing" death because they lack the resources to live.

This is how our systems always work for disabled people.

Eucerine roughness relief is my go-to. It has urea in it which really helps with dry skin. I also really enjoy raw shea butter. It's greasy but very moisturizing.

"The Independent also looked at numbers for the 500 yard men's race, where Ms Thomas has competed at a high level in both men's and women's events, from 2015 to 2021. There, her finishing time is more than 20 seconds below the men's average." www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

If only they would listen to those of us who tell them that our liberation is directly tied to the liberation of trans women. We can't have one without the other. They're cutting off their nose to spite their face.

So, in their effort to "own the libs" these freaks decided to download CP (assuming they didn't already have it on hand) and post it to the internet, thus contributing to the sexual exploitation of minors, but we're the ones who are a danger to children???? Make it make sense!

classic defensive white liberal response. couching your disinterest in a moral stance against negativity reduces Kendrick's critique to simple negativity rather than intelligent cultural critique. critique is not inherently destructive and is often the key to new insights and cultural breakthroughs
