Masks are dumb. Here’s why.

Ignore the very special troll, people.

We should thank the o p for helping to demonstrate that voting Trump is pretty much synonymous for being a know nothing believer in BS internet memes over basic science. Well done!

Here is a compromise, if you don’t wear a mask, you will be prioritized last for medical treatment.
Since Covid isn’t that deadly, DTT surely supports this compromise, right?

If you’re overweight and continue to eat McDonald’s....follow your own logic, which seems to also be dumb.

Dude, are you mentally sound?
I honestly am kind of worried.

I do not like double standards - which are the only standards the left has these days.

Why is this guy still allowed to post here again? I think no one would lose any sleep if he was muted. Blatantly posting false information violates the TOS does it not?

Something something left-wing moderator bias.

I 100% agree. People who treat their bodies like s**t, eat crap, never exercise, smoke, and drink to excess should expect to pay far more for medical treatment than someone who takes care of themselves. I mean, what would be the alternative? Treating everybody the same way, regardless of their life decisions? IDK bruh, sounds like socialism to me.

That's our job as health professionals. But I can't say that I don't side-eye when someone comes in whose BMI is over 30, blood pressure 150/90, fasting blood sugar over 136, and he/she claims it's "all genetic".  

To be clear, I'm not saying that a doctor should violate the Hippocratic Oath. Insurance providers, on the other hand, have no obligation to keep rates low for people who mistreat their bodies. That would be like a car insurance company ignoring someone who gets in a fender-bender every month.

But how do you enforce that standard, and who decides whether a person is making too many bad health decisions versus bad genetics?  Also, it's not an accident that poor people and especially people who live in food deserts are, on average, fatter and less healthy than wealthies, and that fresh produce and non-crap food are a great deal more expensive than the crap food.

While I sympathize, exercise is free.

 

Leisure time is not.
