i don't begrudge people for escaping the us before it was impossible to do so. I just feel bad for them because this is going to maybe end in global thermonuclear annihilation, and they're going to live long enough to see the first strikes before the retaliatory launches get them too.

lol no



even in an all-out nuclear exchange most people aren't going to get instantly killed. the majority of deaths will be from radiation poisoning, starvation, and dysentery.

like, if you really want to maximize your chances of being within the instant death zone, i guess you could go live next to a military base or international airport.


although even then there are expected to be some proportion of missiles that fail to launch and warheads that fail to detonate or otherwise go off-course, so depending on the target you live next to it's still possible god might laugh as he spurns you

medicine is hosed up


so this dude who is a farmer and he’s nice but uneducated was asking if there was a drug they could give his dad to bring back his personality that he lost after having a stroke

kinda said that well, left to his own devices he would have died. modern medicine saved his life, and this is life that is left.

you don’t have to be in the game for long to discover that longer life is not higher quality of life, and that helping people live, if taken to the extreme, may just be extending someone’s suffering

plus they’re doctors. they all have huge responsibility all the time. and they get paid well for it. it’s not an easy job. at least that shows she cares. the GP across the road from my work is just coasting now.

ya know if a doctor prescribes all the wrong things and misses things etc and i pick up all his errors and etc, there’s no repurcussion? it just doesn’t matter. i don’t mind being a safety net but i’m not a fuckin proof reader. yet he earns all the dollars, patients complain that he spends the consults talking about himself and his hard life.


ya know he’s an ordinary white kiwi.. who at some stage in his life while being a doctor converted to islam

would love to ask him, a person well educated in science and medical science, what the gently caress he found
so compelling in loving islam. not all religions are made equal and that one is the fuckin worst. how the hell do you look at it and the culture it produces and decide “yep that’s what I need more of in my life”. he married a muslim woman maybe he just converted coz she’s got a platinum snatch idk

I was making a post next level grim about doctors who just don't have the time for their patients, but maybe not.

But no, there's a reason doctors burn out real bad sometimes and maybe just killing patients who wish to no longer suffer when it's certain that's all they'd do is a good thing.

I doubt there will be a need to force the doctors to do it, ever. The right kind of person to be okay with it emerges after witnessing enough.

it’s not the muslim part that is odd, it’s the converting to islam after being educated in a science based field that strikes me as odd


if any person from any background, after studying science, converted to christianity, I would also think that was loving disturbing.

I suppose I should have been a bit more specific and said something about certain parts largely
common amongst the culture that surrounds islam, my intention was that at least, not lumping all their cultures together, certainly wasn’t what I was referring to.

but the sexism and homophobia and lack of human rights and death threats toward apostates and aggressive anti semitism.: it would take a special kind of fool to try to argue that those things are just coincident in those cultures and not a direct result of their iron age religion

thankfully some people break free. ex muslims are the best, and the disdain they hold for islam is something we can all learn from (this is true of all
apostates)

christianity is real hosed up and things like the crusades and etc are evidence that it can bring true evil on the world and it’s not really bad to say that there are homophobic and sexist elements common to the cultures surrounding christianity and that these are bad and that christianity plays a large part in this.

and
in fact, it’s far more insulting to the cultures in largely islam nations to say their anti trans homophobic antisemetic stances are a result of the humans and the inherent culture, rather than the religion common to them.

also the animal has to die due to loss of blood. if you accidentally killed the animal with a bolt thru its neck it would not be halal

it’s called exsanguination

in western nations, due to our preference of not wishing an animal to die in that way, it’s common to knock the animal unconscious before this happens, so the animal doesn’t have to actually experience exsanguination first hand. but that still has to be the mechanism of death
