On the other hand, for-profit medicine is great for the shareholders.

    There was a moratorium? It feels like this conversation has been happening endlessly for years now.

      Yes there was. Questioning of corporations, their motives, or their claims, was verboten. Maybe it still is, someone just accused me of being "far-right" for the thought-crime of questioning Pfizer's profiteering, lmao.

          Wrong on both counts. I did not, and they did.

        It seems like somehow the people who complain they have been silenced are always the loudest these days.

          It seems like the bullies and censors and corporatist bootlickers are still far louder. It's great if you're hearing them being called out by those speaking their truth to power though.

            Running into people who disagree with you or think you are kind of dumb or call you names isn’t really the same as being silenced.

              Bullying can be very silencing and disempowering actually. I see them as closely related actually -- censorship is bullying and bullying can be silencing, although the simple kind of bullying is usually driven by their more basic fear and embarrassment of their own inadequacies.
