Freedom and healthcare
You are not free if you do not have the basic necessities for life. That is a simple fact. In class today the teacher asked the class to "Give one reason why you think people have the right to healthcare.". That is an interesting question, but in my eyes completely useless. Humans are a social species, we feel good when others feel good. The reason humanity is so warped right now is because we give people a social incentive to hurt each other, competition, capital accumulation, etc. That is still not the point of this post though.
The point of this post is simply a question with some basic assumptions attached. The vast majority of people want everyone to be happy and healthy, and we have more than enough resources to do so. My question is a simple one, if the vast majority of humanity wants something why do we not have it? My teacher told a story in class. A women needed a C-section at a hospital, or else both her and the baby would die. There were no tools at this clinic to do that, however. It was a rural area of a third world country. Luckily there was a town within driving distance and an ambulance at the clinic. There was just one problem, it did not have gas. The women had no money, and later died at that clinic.
What was the main problem in that story? Most people I'm afraid would say it was that the women had no money. That, in my view, was not the problem. The problem was that we put money above human life, there was definitely enough gas to get her there in the pumps. So my even bigger question is: Does putting a social construct in a higher place of importance than human life make us more free?
The doctors had to answer to the man who operated the gas pumps. The man who operated the gas pumps had to answer to the capitalist, the capitalist had to answer to the investors. Due to capital accumulation having money makes more money, and so those with the most money are those who extract as much as possible as efficiently as possible, meaning that eventually capital controlled by those whose only role in life is to accumulate capital will become the vast majority. That means the capital itself cannot, as a whole, care about humanity in any way shape or form.
Breaking anything in this chain of hierarchy from human to capital will lead the monopoly of force of the state to enforce this hierarchy.
I completely agree with you that corporations and their well-being is much more prioritized than human life. It is almost as if corporations were actual living things and not just inanimate abstract concepts.
Unfortunately, eventhough this is a major concern to me, I cant come up with a viable solution.
you have a discord acc? There are definitely viable solutions, but as you can problem guess the capitalists don't like them and try their best to suppress them

I do have an account. I will be more of a "creeper" on there. Reading more than writing I mean. But hey, still thank you for the invitation.
I noticed some past posts of yours and I like your passion. :)

I knew there wa a word but I couldnt remember it. :)

if you want to learn more about different political ideologies that book is a good place to start imo
Capitalism and the American Healthcare industry are carefully crafted tools of murder, used to keep the people at bay by threat of bankruptcy, disease, and death. The death panels that rule over on many of these cases being comprised of for-profit, selfish, and evil people being so unregulated proves that the system is designed to be this way and that it wasn't just an accident.
you disgust me, get off my posts. I will leave the autoflag on (assuming I did it correctly), for a few days. I will leave it on for longer and up the flag size for everytime I see you near my, or my friends, posts.
Info on a blockchain is forever.
for anybody else coming across this.
I will never know exactly what happened that night, especially with the amount of gas lighting going on. I have more information but hesitate to put it on a blockchain, especially when the person I believe to be the victim is being gas light to a massive extent, and I am afraid the truth has been lost forever because of that. (Putting them back in contact with a confessed rapist known for being manipulative assured that, intentional or not. This again I have on authority I trust.)
I have asked for contact to cease multiple times, if it does not I will stop it with the means I have available. If you disagree with the means and not my response to the event in question, then that is a problem with this platform, not me. Take it up with somebody who actually has power over that.

one of the examples of gas lighting and abuse
There is and was never any gas lighting whatsoever, and you can't say that you believe someone and also say they are lying at the same time. I also never said the things you claim I did. I'd be glad to show you the exact conversation and explain it, but I won't do it publicly.
I have posted proof of what I claim that is irrefutable, if you still think I've done terrible things, you're misled. I won't let you post lies and misinformation that slanders me without correcting the record. Sorry.
If I disgust you because you read a bunch of lies about me, then you're going to have to deal with it. I didn't do what you think I did and I'm tired of being harassed after going through a traumatic incident.
Imagine being a "communist" who dedicates themselves to harassing sexual assault victims on steem instead of actually looking into the details of the situation.
I'm open to talking if you want to be a mature adult, but if you're going to continue to harass sexual assault victims, then expect me to continue doing what I'm doing forever.
The ironic thing about all this is that you apparently hate me for rape apology? (I never did that, by the way). Yet you post things in defense of a person who attempted to rape me, while leading a harassment campaign against a sexual assault victim (me) without actually getting any factual understanding of the situation.
I hope you realize how evil you're being sooner, rather than later.
I was a member of the investigative team. You did absolutely try to defend a rapist, first with denial, then with omission, then with minimization. While we have no evidence you yourself participated in or witnessed a rape, your continued and emphatic defense of someone who has admitted to being a rapist and who has multiple confirmed victims doesn't endear you to anyone. Nor does your posturing denial and continued emotional manipulation.
I would like to remind you that what is said on the blockchain stays on the blockchain. Unless you want to have your lies exposed on permanent public record (rather than in a private text chat) you might want to pipe down on this. We caught you in the first place because of your inability to keep your story straight, remember.
My story has always been straight, I've never changed a single detail, and I wasn't defending anybody, I was asking questions about what they were saying because I was unaware of who Sofie was to begin with. I can understand why misinterpreted it, but to claim that asking a question is "defense" is absurd and untrue.
Again, constantly attacking sexual assault victims isn't a good look. Please stop doing this to me.
Looks to me like the best solution is to post chat history screenshots here - images are not kept on the blockchain, so s'all good!
I will soon enough since Anna continues the sexual assault victim harassment campaign, something will be done about her evil garbage soon enough.
If you want to help, I assume you're interested, feel free to hmu on discord Andrea#0462
