Karl Marx Conquers American Medicine

In early April, it emerged that a Marxist, pro-Hamas, anti-American guest speaker gave a two-hour-long lecture at the UCLA Geffen School that included an invocation to kneel in prayer to momma earth and stand up and scream for Hamas. This proves that Marxist ideological argot, the canons of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI), intersectionality, and critical race theory have infiltrated American medicine. The Supreme Court has established that DEI (i.e., reverse discrimination) violates the Constitution when it comes to admissions:

American medicine was once rooted in science and a personal, professional, responsibility to 'first do no harm'. Medical treatments were expected to be based on proven efficacy and physicians were supposed to explain potential risks, allowing patients to give 'informed consent'. These elements defined 'professionalism' and physicians rightfully enjoyed the trust of the American people more than most every other group. One element of that status was that physicians were individually responsible as most were self-employed whether working alone or as part of doctor groups. Now, doctors are almost always employees and mostly directed by non-doctor administrators whose goals are making money for the business entity while avoiding scandal. Physicians have become well-paid slaves to the corporate mentality and insurance/government 'masters'. They did not push back against the utterly unproven covid vaccines whose administration to hundreds of millions here in America alone is only now being admitted as sometimes worse than the illness. So is it any wonder that trust in physicians is at an all time low?

DEI infects your medical care. You may have Doctors that failed Anatomy 101 or some other medical courses. But you are not supposed to care. They will take care of you, just like in the third world. Witch Doctors more than likely.

In their zeal to make things "equal" the mediocre and untalented have been awarded positions of authority and competence well above their abilities. Those who were once selected as competent and qualified are now denied their rightful positions in the name of equity. To paraphrase the Lightbringer's stolen words of wisdom, don't dare get sick or find the need to fly somewhere on commercial airlines. Your chances of survival are much worse than they were ten years ago because the mediocre and untalented are now running the show.

I see this happening and it's just incentive to limit my visits to a doctor to only when absolutely necessary. This all started when doctors became just another business which made profits a priority over patients. Personally, the more I see doctors, the more problems they find. Only solution I can come up with: Stop seeing doctors.

#5's post reminded me of a scene in the series "Chernobyl" where a scientist goes to the head of the committee running the city of Minsk to warn of the potential for disaster but is rebuffed. The committee head used to run a shoe factory and knows better than she that all is well because his superiors have told him that the situation is being handled. This is the fate awaiting us in healthcare, engineering, and the other essential hard sciences. Mediocre talents will be in charge assuring us that all is well as bridges collapse, trains derail, aircraft fall to pieces in the sky, and skyscrapers begin to topple. It's "Atlas Shrugged" all rolled up inside "Idiocracy." Hold on, dude - Doctor Lexus will see you next...! greyseal

Just a petty beef I have: discrimination is discrimination. There is no such thing as reverse discrimination. Oh, well.

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough had a tough morning. Iran launched an unprecedented attack on Israel from its soil over the weekend, hurling drones and ballistic missiles at the Jewish state, humiliating Biden, who warned Tehran with a simple word: “Don’t.” He then proceeded to go on vacation, knowing that our only democratic ally in the Middle East was about to be attacked. The inflation numbers remain high; this entire presidency has been shipwrecked by incompetence, arrogance, and, yes, Joe’s decrepit state.

Jury selection was underway on Monday morning for Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s lawfare case against Trump related to ‘hush payments’ made to porn star Stormy Daniels. Last April Trump was hit with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records and conspiracy. Alvin Bragg still hasn’t named the underlying felony after he twisted the law and somehow upgraded the misdemeanor charges that were past the statute of limitations – to felonies. The fix is in.

There's nothing at all funny about putting a former President of the United States of America on trial for misdemeanor record-keeping offenses and turning those into felonies through a badly done magic trick. The underlying reason why the George Soros-selected prosecutor put Donald Trump on trial starting Monday, however, is yet another reason why this case should be laughed out of court. The avowed Trump-hating prosecutor, Alvin Bragg, is part of the effort by the left to tie up the former president in court so he can't campaign for president.

A “glass jaw” is a boxing term referring to a boxer who could be knocked out with one good punch to their jaw. It can also refer to a public figure who wilts under the discomfort of public scrutiny. Democrats are great at dishing it out but have very thin skin when anything is dished out on them. And a glass jaw when anyone punches back. The latest example is Democrat Rep. Maxine Waters.

Was the garbage prosecution of President Trump in Georgia something Kamala Harris cooked up with her best bud Fani Willis? That's what congressional investigators are seeing. According to Raw Story, citing Newsweek: Embattled Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis met with Vice President Kamala Harris before she indicted Donald Trump in his election interference case, according to a lawyer who shared White House records during a Georgia Senate hearing. The meeting, according to Attorney Ashley Merchant's testimony, took place on February 28, 2023, just months before Willis indicted Trump in August of that year, Newsweek reported.

Rush Limbaugh warned Democrats would eventually promote pedophilia. Progressivism never stops. Its advocates never say, “This is far enough.” No sooner is one objective completed than left-wing agitators shout that a new social justice battle be waged. For centuries, God-ordained families headed by one biological man and one biological woman have been civilizations’ bedrocks. But just as progressives hunger to rewrite Western Civilization’s history (witness scholastic textbook revisionism and the razing of American Founders’ statuary), they crave cultural destruction. First, they urged same-sex marriages to be legally recognized.

America was once a nation of free-thinking individualists priding themselves on the constitutional idea that God ordained and endowed each person as an end unto himself with rights to think, act, believe, and behave according to personal thoughts, conscience, and individual interest. According to the Declaration of Independence, those “inalienable rights” include the pursuit of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Therefore, because government’s power is derived from the consent of the free, the job of those running the country is to “secure,” not undermine those rights and freedoms.

1 in 3 Muslims living in the UK want Islam to be declared the national religion and for everyone to live under the brutal system of Sharia law which calls for beheadings and amputations. Less than 1 in 4 Muslims opposed the move while the majority were unwilling to commit. Among younger Muslims 18-24, 1 in 5 believed that making Islam “our national religion” was “very desirable”, and a total of 43% supported redefining the UK as an Islamic state. Only 16% opposed it.

A North Carolina high school student was charged after he allegedly slapped his teacher multiple times during a viral profanity-laced classroom rant earlier this week. The rage-filled youngster, identified only as a minor, confronted the educator inside Parkland High School in Winston-Salem, where he violently attacked her, according to video posted to social media. After the initial impact, the teacher seemed unfazed by the slap as the student continued to run his mouth. Do you think that affected me anyway,” the unidentified teacher said, sitting back in her chair, legs crossed. “Want me to hit you again,” the juvenile asked as he menacingly approached the teacher.

A federal appeals court on Tuesday overturned a West Virginia law that prohibits male athletes from competing in women’s sports in the state, arguing that it violates Title IX, the federal law barring sex-based discrimination in schools. In a 2-1 ruling, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals allowed transgender-identifying males to participate on women’s sports teams in the state. This was one of several pending lawsuits addressing the issue of male participation in women’s sports, with both sides laying claim to Title IX to support their cases.

Both articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas were deemed unconstitutional by the Senate on Wednesday in a party-line vote. The first of two articles of impeachment alleged Mayorkas engaged in the "willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law" regarding the southern border in his capacity as DHS secretary. The second claimed Mayorkas had breached public trust. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., proposed a point of order declaring the article unconstitutional, to which the majority of senators agreed following several failed motions by Republicans.
