For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.
Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only
▪️ Title must match the article headline
▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)
▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.
Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

If bakers can choose their customers based on sexual orientation doctors should be able to choose their patients based on political affiliation. At least one of these is a choice.
I won't comment on the politics angle, but at the very least I think health care should go under a shared code of not being cruel or combative with the workers who are providing you care.
I understand that you can't just kick someone out to die on the street, even if they're being an asshole, but I think that a lot of people predicate their behavior on the fact that you can't kick them out to die on the street. I think it would be much better if there was an understanding that you are leaving the hospital if you abuse the people there, and you can come back the instant you agree to behave, and we'd really like you to agree to that, but we can't care for you until you do, no matter what thing is going to happen to you without care, and that's a hard boundary. The people providing the care need to be cared for, too.
EMTs will absolutely stop working on you if you're being an asshole. Can confirm from being a drunken asshole with a headwound and they stopped working on me until I stopped being an asshole. If someone's actively in the process of dying, though, they're usually too preoccupied to be an asshole to medical personnel.
People are going to get sick and die. Some of them voted for this and deserve it.
I for one can't wait for conservatives to start dying of the listeria they decided to drink
If you're late on a vaccine for yourself or your loved ones, better move quick.
