People will die because of these fuck holes.

I hate to be one to agree, but if he's referring to type 2 diabetes, then it's actually a valid point.
Type 2 is not only preventable but reversable (either completely or enough to massively reduce insulin dependency).
This has been known for a while. Even major diabetes organizations and medical universities say it.
The problem is, good luck convincing someone to switch their diet. And if they wanted to, they may not even be able to afford it.
If it were easy, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and obesity related illnesses would be rare.
Another option is semi glutide treatment that makes you avoid alcohol, high carb food and lower your calorie intake.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Good point, they really should start encouraging diabetics to follow a very specific diet...
Oh wait, they already do that because of course they fucking do?
-
Is he suggesting that the US is going to fund free cooking classes that are low in fat and sugar? Because that's a great idea.
And they should also provide free insulin.
Maybe we can compromise and say that you have to attend 4 hours of free cooking classes every month to receive your free insulin for the month?
Oh no, you're thinking of a government that actually wants what's best for the people living there.

Even the sun shines on a dogs ass some days.
He's not wrong, he's just right for the wrong reasons.
90% of diabetics in the US are type 2. 90%.Our food culture is way out of whack, and we need to fix it.
Obviously diabetics still need medical care. But revamping the way we view food will allow many Americans to keep the amount of feet they were born with.
I mean yes, he is wrong. They'd still need the fucking insulin. Even if type 2 is reversible, it's not going to be immediate.
Dude didn't say, "we should be encouraging these people to eat better" because we already do that. Of course we already do that.
He said that they should take cooking classes instead of insulin.
Stop giving these ghouls the benefit of the doubt. They literally want you dead.
-
I think its implicit that he's only talking about type 2 diabetes, which is the vast majority of the cases in the US
I don't understand why people are still so insistent on being charitable to these scumbags.

nonononono that's communism

No! Stop acting like they're all stupid, that's what they want you to think.
He was a pancreatic surgeon at Johns Hopkins. It's literally impossible for him to not be familiar with diabetes unless he has experienced serve memory loss recently.
He's pushing eugenics and wanting to kill off people with chronic illnesses
wrote on last edited by [email protected]It's always wild to me when I see people with long, often illustrious careers in things like law or medicine, only to pull something like this that is completely antithetical to everything they've ever studied or worked toward, and shit all over their legacy.
Like why the fuck were you a surgeon in the first place? If you had these views, why would you go into a career that focuses on helping to keep chronically ill people alive? What is going on in these people's heads?
Same shit with people like Alito and Thomas. You spent your entire life studying and upholding the US Constitution, and then you get appointed to the highest court in the nation, and decide "yeah fuck that thing, let's have a dictator"?
It's mind boggling. I would really like to just have some insight into what is happening in these peoples' minds...
-
This. It's literally just suggesting "well how about we just let them die", AKA murder. The HHS especially is now just being filled with eugenicists who are, in general, too chickenshit to just come out and say "well we should kill all of them".
Chickenshit? Or just shrewd?
-
As much i love a good trashing of politican the real quote was "Maybe we need to treat more diabetes with cooking classes, not just throwing insulin at people,"
Better diet really could help prevent type 2 diebetes and personally i think prevention is always better solution than treatment.
Oh you mean the thing that we already do? Good suggestion.

"Try not being so fat, you fucking fatties" is a reaction I have heard from people who are themselves overweight. It's genuinely maddening to see how many Americans are sold on the most superficial understanding of "healthy" as "fuckable" rather than "capable and resilient".
So much of the Trump attitude towards health seems to be geared towards eugenics against old ugly poors.

Means Testing your Insulin by telling you to spend hours in your car, away from your family, attending state-mandated privately administered lectures put on by the lowest bidder.

Yes and no for US. We have folks lining up for ice cream at Walmart and jabbing insulin with it. Diabetes is a diet disease (T2). My A1C was north of 15 when diagnosed. I did go the diet route and managed it before 5.7 for 4 years and now finally it's creeping up to 5.9. It's a chronic disease and will get worse with time.
Other issue I find is it is expensive to eat healthy in US. So either we need to provide cheaper healthier option or we need to provide insulin. We cannot take them both away.
Food that's bad for you is often cheap to transport and preserve for long periods. An apple will rot in weeks, but a twinkie can sit on a shelf for years.
The industrialization of agriculture has been highly profitable for a handful of insiders and horrible for everyone else.

Challenge Accepted.
We’ll get insurers and Medicaid to fully cover diabetes supplies in no time.

How's that working for us?
checks how fat America is
Oh.

Is a total ban on diabetes medicine on the way? This is an effort to kill anyone who isn't young and fit.

Insulin, anyways. I'm sure semaglutide will still be available, since it's such a weight-loss wonder-drug

Yeah, I’d say yes. It's a primer and warning shot. They’ll roll it out in phases.
It gets a reaction out of us. And not always a logical one. A lot of people’s gut instinct is just to deny whatever “they” say. That does two things:
First, it gets their base thinking and talking about how many T2 diabetics are supposedly just consequences of lifestyle.
Second, it pushes the left into reflexively denying that even though it’s partly true. So now, when any real conversation comes up, there’s already a schism. And they can use that to sneak more garbage through, stuff that benefits them and their friends.
Can we head them off at the pass?
No. Never.
Can we head them off at the pass?
No. Never.
Can it come to pass that their heads come off?
