I might be wrong, and I am usually very wrong, but the Scott Adams thing it's not exactly good to anyone.
I agree with a lot of things he says, disagree with many others, sad that he has prostate cancer, but at the same time he should not be using social media to ask the president for help, and much less the president has to interact with him.
Why is he different from any non-famous citizen that actually contribute more to society than social commentary and a cartoon strip? Should the president intervene for everyone? If so, why he is not trying to use his majority in the chambers to change the laws and regulations around insurance?
I feel the same way. It's a pretty blatant example of "it's a big club, and you aren't in it" to me.
And then add the fact that his turbo cancer was probably caused or at least accelerated by the clot shot that Adams was adamant that the rest of us be forced to take, and any sympathy I did have for him immediately evaporates. I don't feel bad for people who are trying to kill me when bad things happen to them. I figure it is only fair.
I agree to an extent, but I gotta say: if you got the connections, use them. I don't get what he meant in the post
I don't know what "brief IV" means I suppose it means he's suppose to go to get some clinic and get an IV with the drug added to it and Kaiser in typical HoMO fashion, fucked him over.
And if I'm fighting for my life? hell yeah, I'd throw everything I got to have a fucking chance. And if I got a line to the President, why wouldn't I use it?
I don't see this any different than if someone has a huge support network and a family clan in the hundreds and ends up needing a gofundme and raises hundreds of thousands. While some guy with 7 friends on his facebook gets 20 dollars for being in the same situation.
It pays to be connected.
People hate it because its just a blatant case of "some pigs are more equal than others."
Especially given his Clott Shot past, it 100% reads as a man running away from the consequences of his own actions (even if the Vaxx wasn't responsible, Covid deaths counted in car crashes so turnabout is fairplay) to rub it in the faces of those who have to suffer and die under the same circumstances that he is famous and connected so he shouldn't have to deal with this bureaucratic nonsense and die. This is the problem of throwing it up on social media to whine about it, instead of privately asking for help.
From his perspective he probably sees himself as a scared man trying whatever he can to survive, but that's not what the reality of it is.
I swear I'm not trying to reply to every reply, but I just want to mention something that came to mind: if I know Trump and I want his help, I'd also post it on social media and when he does help, I will post THANK YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP! YOU'RE GPOAT!!!!!
Because knowing Trump, ego stroking works.
And "some pigs are more equal than others" is ironically a feature of western capitalistic ideology. We're all equal, but wealth and power afford opportunity and comfort. If you want it, in theory you have a slim chance if you got the brains, health, guts, and luck to achieve it. If you don't like it? Seek communism.
He's allowed to do it, and we are allowed to criticize how pathetic and unjust it is that he is doing so.
He deserves his fate, as he tied his "health" to the Vaxx and showed himself to be willing to sell every bit of credibility and intelligence he once held out just to assuage his fear of death. And now, once again, he is groveling like a little baby in terror of it, and selling what remains of his dignity to do so.
Once again, he is allowed to do all these things and in the face of death many men are rendered into their meekest forms. But just the same, everyone is completely in the right to mock and belittle him for it, as he made his "health" the most important part of his brand all on his own out of pure ego and inability to admit being wrong and is now reduced to suffering from the same gay healthcare system we all do.
And in the face of that nightmare, what does he do? Does he use the thing he is famous for, understanding business and corporation cultures, and try to leverage it into change for the betterment of all men by showing that even someone as connected and rich as him can't escape it?
No, he begs his friend to save him specifically and only him. He is deserving of mockery in the highest degree, and no amount of "well he technically can do that because he is rich" will change that.
And then people like you wonder why the masses with no hope of ever benefitting from such a situation instead want that opportunity stripped from as many people as possible.
Yeah, that's basically it. He got the authorization to use a "breakthrough therapy" and they delayed the administration due to some sort scheduling thing.
Worth pointing out that Pluvicto is a radiopharmaceutical. It's basically a ligand the with an affinity with the prostate linked together with radioactive material. Think radiation therapy from the inside out. Wouldn't surprise me if administering it had some complexity around it besides just sticking in an IV. Might require some specialists on hand. Still, no excuse.
On a separate note, Novartis just had earnings on 10/28 and dropped like 6%. If this high-profile treatment saves funny cartoon man... pretty good press...
I agree, if you can and have power use it. Maybe he could use back channels, but there's a bit of showing off, even if he is dying.
You're right, he should reach out privately. It feels very performative, even RFK replying something like, hey President Trump wants to help.
Tinfoil hat me (5%) think he is trying to say without saying Northern California Kaiser "dropped the ball" because he is Scott Adams.
I don't really believe that, but I do believe that there are liberals in positions of power and authority that are TDS addled monsters capable of withholding lifesaving treatment because they think they're ridding the world of a "nazi". And they'll sleep better at night knowing they killed the man.
You'll know who they are when Scott Adams passes and they celebrate.
I'd do the same thing to anyone I deem as having the wrong sort of thought including this overpaid parasite.
And that's why I hope he suffers a slow painful death where his last moments are filled with humiliation.
And I see that as a problem that makes me furiously angry at the guy with the support network knowing that's something I'd never be able to have.
You're evil and subhuman.
Why are you angry over factual observation?
"It pays to be connected." barely qualifies as an opinion. That's like being mad at statements such as: "The more money you have, the more things you can purchase." or "If you stay in shape you'll have less problems that are commonly associated with obesity."
Support is a systemic advantage, sorry 😿
Why wouldn't I be? I'm so fucking sick of the world and want it all to burn.
It qualifies as a problem though and you don't seem to be treating it as such.
And it's one that needs to be destroyed I'm so sick of people with already good lives being further rewarded thanks to their connections while men like me who never had a chance are expected to be content working like slaves and dying on the street.
