Odious bullshit from start to finish.

The article claims that the growing healthcare industrial complex is driving a huge increase in left-wing voters.

Except the article also tells us that doctors have traditionally voted republican, so what gives?

Turns out that the healthcare boom is made up of “diverse” employees who inject social justice issues into our healthcare systems while voting staunchly democrat. So it’s really all about demographic replacement.

Oh, and the massive leftward shift among healthcare professionals is totally because republicans are anti-science. It’s not because radical leftists infiltrated and subverted healthcare in order to implement anti-white policy.

And doctors definitely didn’t turn away from the right out of solidarity with big pharma aka the people who sign most of the big checks.

Seriously, fuck 90% of the cunts who work in healthcare and all of the cunts at politico.

Also the GOP sucks ass anyway. If they weren't dog shit on immigration, not only would they be stopping the replacement of the only people who vote for them, but they could also flip people who are upset about Biden's disastrous policies.

Tovarich, it seems you need to study the work of Comrade Lysenko while you count trees in gulag.

If you can find a copy, watch the late 90s documentary CNN did about the Cold War. Eye opening for how much of history is lies and justification.

Of course the leftward shift is primarily due to the influx of women and non-whites. That's literally all it takes.

Tdlr; it's talking about political infiltration by having large businesses expand their influence in cities as a large employer and turning a red city blue by essentially mass immigration of blue voters.

They're covering for it by saying that these more 'education reliant jobs' are more leaning Democrat because Republicans are stuck in the past.

I just think the Democrats can't run shit if you look at all the cities they control and a lot of Republicans are either uniparty do just as bad or believe 'we may have lost but we did with dignity' which just makes me want to bitch slap you, you win whatever means you can do without the costs outweighing the win not this looser 'dignified loss' shit.

'dignified loss' shit

This only applies in a contest where both parties agree to the rules.

An existential crisis is war and war is based on deception.

Democrats were willing to crash our entire healthcare system in order to create these state forced monopolies that rely on government to exist.

But this controversial project — new roads paved over a beloved field traversed by herds of deer — isn’t fueled by Hershey’s global snacking company, the giant nearby amusement park of the same name, or the hospitality industry. Instead, it’s radiating out of Penn State Health, the hilltop headquarters overlooking the town created by a risk-taking confectioner more than a century ago.

So another forced healthcare monopoly because the healthcare industry has been floundering in costs after Obamacare…

A community anchor since 1970, the “med center,” as locals call it, is Dauphin County’s top private employer — and continues to expand. Today, Penn State Health serves 29 Pennsylvania counties and employs close to 17,000 (12,000 at the med center and its children’s hospital alone); its College of Medicine enrolls more than 1,700 students in its graduate programs.

Oh look, I was right, a government forced monopoly that turns out to be democrat! I’m shocked…

Today, the municipality (population 25,000) has never been bluer. “The biggest factor contributing to the change in voter registration, shifting from that ‘one-party town,’ in my opinion is the med center and the College of Medicine,” said Paioletti. “The medical community is extremely diverse, and we know how much the med center and college have grown.”

😂

For physicians, their leftward turn is a reversal from decades past, when doctors commonly identified as Republican. At the time, their GOP preference was a business concern: They owned small practices. They had yet to enter the era of employment in large medical systems. “Most doctors are Republicans,” as one Florida physician observed to the New York Times in 1996. “Most doctors’ dads were Republicans. They do not see themselves as proletarian. They see themselves as bourgeois.”

“Large medical systems” is an adorable euphemism for forced local healthcare monopolies.

Over time, though, the profession became more politically divided. This division paralleled cultural and economic shifts: more diversity among students at medical schools, where social concerns were incorporated into curricula, and then eventual employment among these graduates at corporate or nonprofit medical systems instead of privately owned practices. The leftward shift was gradual but then suddenly intensified by the Covid pandemic, when a large share of doctors perceived GOP politicians as displaying an antipathy toward science.

Imagine being correct about Covid, the lockdowns, masks, and the “vaccine” as “displaying antipathy towards science”. Then again these are the same simpletons who zealotry leads to hilarious phrases like “I believe in science”.

Working in systems instead of operating as private owners spares physicians some administrative burdens and the direct overhead expense of medical malpractice insurance premiums. And the shift isn’t going away either. As an American College of Surgeons analysis last year noted, “Recent residency graduates increasingly opt for the perceived predictability of employment rather than seeking the entrepreneurial rewards of small business practice.”

In other words, democrats managed to legislate the feasibility of private practices for almost all medical fields to near zero. Forced compliance from the government, how “free”…

I'm so tired of the notion of empirically verifiable knowledge being claimed as a political force. It's absolutely vile behavior.
