I actually do think we need to get to that point of all the non-GOP healthcare providers refusing care to all Republicans. They want to control medical decisions & cut healthcare for millions. Fine. But they should face consequences.

I support this. "Do no harm" should also mean a nazi magat doesn't get saved because they're responsible for innumerable deaths just by their vote. Its not a judgment call, it's a fact.

Exactly. “Do no harm” can be applied to our community at large. And the principle of doing the most good for the most people. 🏥⛑️❌

Actually, the same medical ethics that lets Christian extremists refuse to treat LGBTQ people can work the same way when my strongly held beliefs conflict with providing medical care to fascists.

Did I read that’s actually the new rule at the VA? That doctors, providers, and nursing staff don’t have to treat people with disagreeable views? Maybe I’m just hallucinating this dystopia to its logical conclusion.

I thought you were making a joke about that. But you’re right! All healthcare providers at VA can refuse care of patients if they are unmarried or Democrats. Also true for hiring staff: they can discriminate based on marital status, political party, or union membership. McCarthyism returns.

The majority of Americans feel that it’s being done to us. But it is shocking to see how quickly Trump made our previously free country into Trump’s Police State.

It's rather unfortunate that the majority failed to turn out and vote for an alternative to Trump. Had those who did vote only voted, this likely would not be an issue.

Yep. Trump blathers on about his “mandate” but he actually got only 49.8% of votes and only 36.1 % of eligible voters. The non-voters definitely screwed us over!

I've practiced for 30 years. I've treated murderers, neoNazi teens, countless MAGA. But that was before I lived in a Police State that is targeting brown people with brutalizing heavily armed Militias & GOP who have declared an armed coup & Civil War against Democrats. That changes the ethical lens.

Oh, look, Trump is sending 2000 more unnecessary troops to LA for his Civil War. ktla.com/news/local-n...
