Is this really racism

Yeah, look at GA 6. 37 years a GOP stronghold and they damn near lost it this time around. 

Another Trump win, and that is all that matters. The democrats have punched a big hole in their own ship, and they are now going down fast. They brought it all upon themselves because they are nothing more than a bunch of cry baby losers. They lost the election and should have just accepted it graciously like Republicans would have. Aw well.

Yes.  I'm of the mind that you can see whichever doctor you are most comfortable with.  

 

Sure, Health care by its very subjective nature can generate subjective preferences.  I would think its going to come up more for example with a g.p. or psychiatrist or cosmetic surgeon then it should say a cario-vascular surgeon or oncologist but bed side manner is so important right? I mean I had supposedly the no.1 esr, nose, throat doctor  visiting from South KorewA examine me at Toronto General because of the weird brain infection I had. He was a jerk. He came in with like 12 interns and when I said good morning did not answer. I told the interns right there this doctor was an asshole and if he does not have basic courtesy he has no business being a doctor and then told that doctor tp phack off. That has been the only doctor I ever had a fight with. Me personally I have had doctors of all colours, sizes, shapes, probably breast size and penis length. Never felt it important. I only care they are polite and clean. Who knows what sets people off. I just am not sure all of that is racism. I think what often looks like racism or sexism isn't. In my case I am embarrassed to strip in front of young women gp's. Its my up bringing. Its my issue not the doctor's. All the doctors understand that. They know I don't thinl women are inferior doctors. Hell my mother was one. I do find explaining male urology issues a hell of a lot easier with an old man doctor I mean we smell the same.

I was brought up at a very young age seeing doctors of all colours, sizes, etc. Some people are shaped by their environments the other way. Some people need time to accept change. I am not apologizing for bigoted behaviour but I think with health care, its a very problematic area of service. Doctors an dnurses are trained to deal with such things head on.

Now I had  doctor who was close to my mother who came from Haiti. Oh you bet in Quebec where he worked there were comments He was the no.1 tropical disease spdcialist in his hospital. An impeccable man. He never confronted the comments with anger. He let his expertise do the talking. You bet I watched him growing up.  He was just like my Granddad he had this quiet dignoity in the face of ugliness.

People like that are my kind of heroes. Its why I liked Jackie Robinson. You deal with it they way they did-by transcending the ugliness. Its done every day by people. That is something you and I don't see maybe because I guess the  ugliness. which is louder.

Has this thread been on topic for the last 3 pages? 

Threads do go off the topic at hand track at times. So? It is the members that make this website exist, and if some members do sometimes drift off, so what is the big deal with that? It does not bother me. But that is just me.

Would there be a good reason for that? Just asking? 

One example:  Provinces notify clinics if one of their patients is getting opiod scrips from more than one doctor.  Not every doctor wants to work with a patient who does that.

I have a friend that's a nurse practitioner.  The only difference between her and a doctor is that she can't prescribe opiods.  And she's Okay with that.

Maybe an obstetrician doesn't want to work with certain ethnicities because he/she knows from experience that if the child is deemed to be a girl they will pressure the doctor to arrange an abortion.

It has made headlines in England - I saw the video from the Daily Mail feed I think.  I'm sorry your sensibilities have been offended, but maybe now you can wake up to see that people find these views unacceptable.  I think you may have learned something outside whatever bubble you get your news from.

There's no whatever reason here.  There's no doubt.  She was clearly stupid, and yes racist.  Sorry but people just don't share your views anymore.  You can open your eyes to that, or blame the media for it - that's your choice.

 

Well for one thing people can ask for what ever they want it is choice . But I am a person that sees the reality of the left agenda today especially in the USA where they back a murderer and cheat and liar and absolutely refuse to see the truth and even when  the truth is given to them they refuse to believe it. Americans should look at Germany and France and England they share the same left views and you are next , Enjoy

That is something many members can't seem to figure out here. Who the hell cares if she wanted a white doctor?  What is that to anyone here or in the media? Again, it's a white person involved and that has to become front page news. White people just cannot seem to get a break. 

do me a favour look up North Preston in Dartmouth Nova Scotia do some reading.

Can you explain this ?  What 'left' ?  Which 'murderer' ?

Both fit your liberal definition of racism, not mine.

Over reaction is putting it mildly. The aim of the main scream pc media is to do just that? Force people into hiding whom they despise and who would dare speak political incorrectness. Shame them to get them to shut up. I do not doubt that Trump was some how going to be involved in this incident. The liberal media seems to be intent on trying to blame incidents like this on Trump all the time. The main scream liberal snowflake media are such losers. Lucky for them that they have so many dumb downed social justice jihadi snowflake followers listening too and believing the bull that they like to spread. 

 I think it is very nice of you to point out racism as you see it now lets ask a question here .Is there anyone and I mean anyone one this chat that means of any color, religion Race That has not laughed at an off color joke , Told an off color joke , Made fun of a person made comments about another person EVERY person has done this at one time or another and I imagine you all think you are bigots and racist? The people today need safe spaces to run to they do not know what debate is , the best way people have to shut down debate is the race card. I find it hard to believe that with the advances that we have made in the last 50 years the one way we have gone backward is in personal interaction. People have lost the ability to hear when another speaks , We have lost the ability to interact because the only opinion that matters is our own. We spend more time on computers and game machines then dealing with actual people we have all become socially retarded , and before you nuts over that word look it up.

 Everyone used to look out for others and would lend a hand or share when others were in need but now it has to be legislated. My words mean nothing to you because you think you are saving the world but before you try to label another Human being first go stand in front of a mirror and take a good long look then see if you are justified at throwing stones.

Exactly my point . Your field of vision is diminished by your very own lack of intellectual depth

I have asked you for a cite for your point.  It's incumbent on you to provide it, if you wish to be believed and progress our discussion.  I will ask you for clarification and evidence one final time, please.

You seemed pretty offended by the response to this.  The term 'snowflake' is used against people who are easily offended, right ?  Like people who don't like being called racist when they're saying racist things.

It's the strangest thing to me why people get so surprised and hurt and ask 'Why is it racist to ask for a white doctor ?'.  It defies logic to ask such a question.  I don't think I know anyone so sensitive in my real life that they would be offended by someone calling something as it is.

Sticks and stones people.

I did and your picture was there.

See, you already made a fool of yourself. You don't even know what I look like? And you want me to believe that you know as to what you are talking about here? Not very much likely. Anything you say here now I will go the reverse to it. Than I know that what I read and listen to that is opposite to yours will be factual and truthful. Just saying.
