Yea I was going to comment how it’s a big problem with healthcare. We saw it during covid but even in regular day to day care it’s a bigger problem these days
And German public health insurance still pays homeopathy…
Diseases not really being a part of life really messed up the perspective of many people. Measles, mumps, polio all are making a comeback because of these idiots.
It sucks but given the situation I am not sure if it could be otherwise. People are justified in not trusting so-called experts. Seems like every week there is yet another scandal of paid shills from some group. From the trivial like film critics being bribed to the terrifying Andrew Wakefield vaccine stuff it is everywhere. The lesson is simple: question the motivations of every speaker and institution.
No one blinks an eye anymore when they hear a doctor recommend horse dewormer for Covid, or a geologist for the oil industry denying global warming, or an internal investigation of a shooting that determined the officers did nothing wrong, or a conservative saying the Ukraine has gay Nazi zombie legions. Think it is limited to public statements? Think again. It is everywhere. It is systematic and well documented impacts of being a minority and going to the hospital. It is people dying from contaminated babypowder that was known to contaminated. It is banks seizing homes and misrepresenting the terms of mortgage. It is paid Russian shills accounts on social media.

The real obstacles are anti-intellectualism and extremist right wing propaganda.
I think it is religion and economists. One tells people that life is shit and the other makes sure that it is.
