hassled?

the cartoon is showing that the media is wrong to celebrate stories in which a baby gets an implant because apparently it causes other people to assume every deaf person wants to hear.

guess what: people assume deaf people want to hear. just like we assume blind people what to see and crippled people want to walk. has nothing to do with media influence.

oh what harassment for a deaf person to have to explain to someone they actually don't want to hear. why are we supposed to set our default assumption to "not all deaf people want to hear"? for the benefit of that 0.000001% of the population?

people do not assume deaf people want to hear because of the media. they assume deaf people want to hear because that is what 99.99% of deaf people want and what 99.99% of any of us would want if deaf.

i think it makes sense but i also reserve the right to override their wishes if i think it is a case of nutcases motivated by ressentiment making up insane rationalizations, which i guess does not count as fully respecting their autonomy. no doubt they would insist i am insincere and was never going to give their input any significant weight in my decision instead of relying on my bias against the disabled, i swear i would give them a fair shot.

Yeah they were all exceptionally bad. I got the cochlear implants one but only because I've heard about deafs being opposed to them.

That's something that I just can't wrap my head around. Outside of mental defects, there's nothing more socially isolating than being unable to hear. It makes communication beyond the most basic level nearly impossible. I'm sure that there's a sense of community and identity shared by the deaf, but I'll never understand why parents of deaf children would want to see their children remain so thoroughly isolated when a treatment exists. It's just so goddamn selfish.

Yeah, I can totally imagine being deaf at 30 and freaking out that in another 30 years my community will be destroyed because no one is going to be entering it anymore. But to keep your kids from it is pretty fucked up. If I understand correctly, if you get an implant later in life, your outcome will be a lot worse as far as hearing/speaking than if you get it as a baby.

In a random stroke of brilliance, I got #2. The left panel shows a gay man holding his lover's hand as he dies of AIDS in a hospital. The right panel shows how this causes a father to face adverse consequences from his own daughter -- in the form of her having an out-of-proportion fear of him contracting HIV -- when he comes out as gay.

but I guess to help fat people the media really should do fewer stories about obesity being unhealthy.

no, not research by the fat acceptance society. and doctors, in their day to day work, do not have the perspective to be able to determine whether they're giving obese people worse care on account of prejudice. nobody is suggesting that doctors hate the obese and refuse to diagnose them correctly on purpose.

i'm sure doctors think they're doing just as good of a job, and that when stuff gets missed, to the extent it's ever discovered and even communicated back to the doctor who missed it, are very good at telling themselves that nobody could have done better at the time. you see this sort of thinking all the time among all sorts of professionals.

There may be some anti-fat bias - though probably not, since being anti-fat is a perfectly reasonable bias to have in the medical profession.

But if there is some correlation between fat people not getting diagnosed for blood clots (or whatever) correctly, it has to do with medical training, not the media. The issue in medical training is probably due to the fact that fat people are generally much sicker than non-fat people solely as a result of being fat, so there is a lot more "noise" to deal with that makes it more difficult to diagnose serious underlying conditions which require advanced treatments / intervention (which, more often than not, are also related to them being fat).

cr. Fat people present a range of symptoms due to fatness. Once you cross a certain obesity threshold you start seeing all kinds of bizarre lab results, patients aren't sleeping right due to sleep apnea, knees are blown out etc. Plus being obese correlates to a SPS diet, so these people are in horrible cardiovascular health and have weird skin conditions and stuff.

libs are maf that doctors tell fats to lose weight as a way of treating their health problems, when those problems are possibly non-obesity-related; they want doctors to investigate more like they would for a non-fat patient rather than just assume it's because the person is a fat. i have no idea whether this belief about diagnostic procedures has any basis in reality.

Even if they do have a point it kinda assumes doctors have super powers. They're all just guessing based on their experiences. So if a fat person comes in and says they're fucked up, it's rational for the doctor to say " hey try being not so fat. Maybe that'll do the trick."

So when an obese patient walks in with type 2 diabetes the doctor should just put them on insulin instead of encouraging the patient to pwn diabetes through weight loss?

Also why would HBP present the same symptoms as a blood clot? The cartoon makes no sense from a medical standpoint.

Honest to Yann, I don't even understand what's happening in this comic. I don't get the before/after thing. I don't even understand what's happening in some of the panels or why they're related.

What is the frazzled dad panel? Is this Mrs. Doubtfire? What's the "consequence"?

Natasha is a transwoman denied an opportunity because she's assumed to look unpalatable to customers. They called her Ms. Doubtfire, referencing a movie character who was a cishet male cross-dressing as an old lady to be his kids' nanny and gets caught by his kids yelling "Dad!"

If feminist stood for this kind of true equality I might be more empathetic.

Instead, it celebrates capitalist hellish war-loving overlords like HRC and Sandberg and Mayer and promotes their SEX--yes, I said it, SEX, they are WOMEN WITH VAGINAS--over all else, because it is ultimately, like all movements, not pure. Instead, promoting something pragmatic/utilitarian over all else: promote WOMEN, promote WOMEN, promote WOMEN.

It comes at the expense of men. And you can have a healthy argument about the merits of that. But there is a Grand Canyon in between the supposed normative ideals of the feminist mindset and then the way it is employed in a political movement IRL.

THE MOVEMENT HAS BEEN CORRUPTED. CAPITALISM VANQUISHES ALL. THERE IS AND WILL NEVER BE A TRUE FEMINIST SOCIETY. WE ARE AS "FEMINIST" AS IT GETS RIGHT NOW. ALL OTHER EFFORTS ARE POLITICAL MASTURBATION.

This might seem like the rant of an insane man--okay, I admit it--but I am right.
