  • Literally anything I want done is a wait list here. Eye exam; schedule a time. Dentist; is it an emergency? We’ll schedule you sometime next month. Phycologist; its a theee month wait list. Primary care; see you in three months. Finding a reliable primary care has been a dead end nightmare.

    I’m not shitting on doctors or nurses. Just this whole system is bonkers. For what reason? Healthcare is not a business.

    “In capitalism everything’s a buisness.” Well get fucked.

    I’m not saying we should be reductive. There is reasons for the way we do things. I am saying though, we’ve gone too far and it’s obscuring the goal of a having a functional society.

    People need professionals to help with their health; an extremely complex field. Every person needs this. Its not an optional thing. You want a society, well a society needs people, and people need Healthcare.

    “Well I never wanted to be part of a society.” Did you enjoy the luxury that having a society provides? From plumbing to super yatchs, all of this wealth we share was made by people like you and me.


  • But isn’t that the most honest answer. Some form of mania. The GOP want us to live in a world where only democrats can ignite extremist violent outbursts. All while courting extremists. If the democrats rhetoric makes people violent then surely the GOPs rhetoric will do the same?

    I dunno. I’m trying to apply logic to an illogical argument. So much of the time we should just shut these people off and work are hardest to deplatform them rather then just fact checking. It’s a type of pollution, which is fine in small doses, but it’s destroying the public square. That and all the shameless advertisments.






  • In my mind, it’s really just entitlement. Something along the lines of, “well, I don’t know the answer and why should I have to know if someone else is going to figure it out.”

    In a tired way, I understand it. Everyday I just want some of my time back for myself. If I’m always the one who has to work through all the problems for my ideas just to be ignored then I’m just going to be perpetually frustrated. So if my ideas are half baked and the solutions i barf up aren’t to your liking, well, figure it out yourself.

    Not to say that I am this way. I don’t get frustrated when my ideas are ignored. I do get frustrated, though, when others eat up half baked ideas knowing they are just that.

    Sorry, if what I’ve wrote so far has gotten a bit confusing. I’ll wrap it up and say, it’s entitlement. People don’t want to think for themselves because it’s time consuming. They think the world should order itself in a way that fulfills their needs with minimal effort on their part. Except, to understand how the world would be ordered for that to be reality, they can’t comprehend because no one has really figured that one out. So they fall back on god and gods an easy out because, duh, he’s god.









  • I’ve been Tyreek and have been picked up on disorderly conduct charges for mocking a police officer to his face. They did not treat me like that. It was all bullshit too, they just wanted to search me thinking I was an easy target.

    What you’re are saying is the police get your complete obedience no matter what. Frankly, that is just not how humans work. I don’t care if you’re an authority. If you target me I will feel a way about it.

    Edit: BTW charges dropped because being rude is not illegal. Cops don’t just get your complete obedience. That is not the law. It may be a norm but we have the power to change norms. To change laws. Don’t perpetuate your own oppression.




  • Not the US population. They would never be taken by an obvious lier with zero scruples to speak of. They are way too disciplined to for that.

    I remember when my dad use to always try to get me to look at this site that listed all of the lies Obama ever told. Watching his unwavering support for trump I try now to understand what that was all about. He obviously doesn’t care about politicians lying. Outside of the racism I think it was just an attempt to radicalize me knowing he just wanted Republicans in power. If there was legitimate moral concern there I wish I could tap into it now.
