  • Doctors have to 100% respect their patient’s wishes but treatment has to be delivered in a biological sense. There’s no good reason to not point out to a patient that this or that treatment is the best course of action based on their biological make up, even if that may hurt or even offend some people. There’s no way a patient could make informed decisions about their own health otherwise. If the doctors don’t do that then they become liable for the wrong diagnoses or treatments they prescribe.

    I mostly agree with the second half of your comment though. What I disagree is that people seem to be very quick to stereotype anything that doesn’t fit the narrative as supremacist and the likes. That’s not constructive at all to say the least. If we want change we need to promote change in a good and positive sense because otherwise will mean shutting that communication’s door with a lot of people.

    I’ve heard something that made sense and went like: “I’ve never seen a racist person stop being racist for being called a racist”. Yes real racists must be punished for doing what they do but we can’t generalise and call everybody a racist for things they’re mostly ignorant about. They need to be informed and invited to follow a better path.









  • There were branches of the political spectrum who brought up the discussion of accountability of the Brazilian electoral system. It had to do with the fact that the only way for a recount of total votes is now 100% based on software which no common citizen can understand and/or check. How can a voting system be fair to an entire population when only a few highly skilled people can actually understand its inner workings? My opinion in this particular matter is irrelevant here but this was the topic that I said bozo’s supporters highjacked to push forth their own agenda. Which in turn ridiculed the whole thing for no gain, whatsoever.
