M.D. here and I feel like I should defend myself but all I can think of was this highly trained doc who fought the hospital administration about having to wear masks, in the hospital, during peak Covid. I mean he was actually one of many but what made him stand out was that his wife was in our ICU. With Covid. Yes he continued to fight masking even as his own wife was near death in the ICU.
You are so absolutely correct about this. This gentleman I refer to is actually a very smart guy in many ways. But say it with me folks: You are not immune to propaganda.
This gentleman was drinking the Fox News tea big time and that’s where the anti-mask, anti-vaccine stuff was coming from. His training and years of knowledge just eventually got short circuited from the constant propaganda.
Weird having worked with them closely for almost twenty years in a hospital setting.
I can say for many I met. They’re absolutely no better than the average person is “put together”. The only thing they tend to be superior at is memorization and recall.
honestly dude the older I get the more I learn a lot of behavior that seems hurtful is just coming from someone who DOES NOT pause to consider what its doing to someone else. its not that they dont care, its just it never dawns on them that its hurting others

So, yeah.
Well he can just fuck right off
…like, out of the hospital
…preferably out of his profession entirely, if possible
I say it all the time, you can go to school for a long time and learn nothing about empathy or compassion.
Upvote 😊
its just there are over 20 currently agreed upon “types” of intelligence, so people can be very sharp in some ways and utterly hopeless in others.
Most doctors are put together pretty well in my experience though

I hear stories like this and it’s hard for me to accept the fact that they’re stupid and not just truly evil
