what is a trot?

Thremp,

lol you.

oh lol, didn't even see the text. The original meme is "he's out of line, but he's right", not "he's a trot".

Have you ever stopped to consider what if someone considered you or your crotch fruit parasites and unilaterally decided they should be removed from society?

I didn't think you could be this dumb, but here we are.

Assumed this would cause a brain 404 due to your limited intellect. Didn't fail to disappoint.

Depends on where you live. Generally whatever the newest apple varieties that have popped up at your grocery stores.

I have no idea how Lithuania screening recommendations work. But in the USA, there are national recommendations, generally based on meta-studies, of what age to screen for what things.

All general doctors *should* know what the current screening recommendations are (or know how to find them in < 5 minutes).

Many people think it is better to do more screenings than what's actually recommended. However, there's a reason more stuff isn't just recommended and done. Some has to do with cost issues - but most is simply because screening for some things would do more harm than good (e.g. false positives outweigh whatever benefit there is from catching whatever it is at that point in someone's life).

Anyway, this is a question to ask your parimary physician and not a somewhat random group of ppl on the internet (none of us are actually qualified to answer this, although I do realize our answers could accidentally be correct).

If you are saying adding on testing on your own that isn't recommended by a good doctor, then I'd say it is generally NOT a good idea. If you are still really sure it's generally a good idea, still check with your primary physician to figure out what the actual pros and cons of getting that extra testing done.

oh i understood it to be "should i be doing these tests the docs want to do?"


agree that we tend to over test in the usa out of fear of lawsuits and knowing the insurance provider will cover it

Soulbro,

Not sure who this Luigi fella is, but life expectancy is a terrible metric for a health care system. Life expectancy is heavily influenced by the rates of homicide, suicide, accidental deaths, etc.

US healthcare costs all because health insurance company greed. Right…

Let’s not touch on our pharmaceutical intake vs rest of world. Or that we’re fat. Or how much our doctors get paid vs rest of civilized world. How quickly would doctors push for universal healthcare in USA?

Haven’t heard of any good plans for it out of anyone, politicians or otherwise.

hc post tbh

Great post. Def could not have written something that perfectly addresses the issue.

He killed the United Healthcare CEO. Basically Soulbro is taking a generic shitlib stance of "Killing random folks is good for ideology I agree with", but can't understand that the whole concept of "killing random folks" is a bad idea.

But yes, life expectancy isn't used in medical research for the reasons you espoused. We can keep people alive for an extended period, and this is actually one of the reasons US healthcare is so absurdly expensive.

Consolidating various government plans and gradually increasing subsidies for larger tranches of supported care year by year would be a good start. Standardizing emergency medical care seems like an incredibly difficult problem, but creating a singular healthcare system out of the various current plans seems reasonable.

One thing to note is that doctor fraud in the 80s/90s is pretty much why we're in this situation. If you have dental insurance and ever see the bill they send to the insurance company, whew lad. Private practice healthcare is basically white collar crime.

Zzzz.

Have you ever considered that your abuse of the English language in the form of laughable hyper aggression is a reason for your limited ability to discuss in a calm and rational manner with people? I assume you are, of course, similarly inclined irl.

Since you're literally too stupid (see what I did there) to understand my SUPER NUANCED poast, I'll spell it out for you. I don't literally mean that Luigi should have killed the CEO. In fact, I'm against vigilante murdering. Wow! Scorching hot take.

Edit: though the public reaction to the murder is interesting.

People with cool ideologies that are probably +EV overall can still do some really dumb and evil **** in the name of that ideology.

You can support a man's ideas without supporting specific actions.

So is this where we stop to consider the potentially positive second order effects of the Holocaust?

Every human being has something of value that they brought to the table.

I dno man, he said my post was great. I'm gonna vote Thremp to Make H&F Great Again. Gonna make it hyuge and put it on the map.

tbf it was objectively an excellent post. Shades of the GOAT anklebreaker (RIP).

The last guy who was gonna put H&F on the map died an early death cause he couldn't put down a 7UP or a pizza or eating like a family of 4, so imma pass on that one. I'll stick with calling out edgelord comments glorifying terrorism by shitty fathers.
