That's horrifying, I love it

Nope, reskin of an old comic.

Just like a lot of animal rescue videos. Horrible, heartbreaking animal abuse, staged to look like an act of heroism.

I used to watch those videos on YT a lot, until I suddenly pieced it together, that two cats had the very same markings, and figured out what their scam was, I felt so disgusted I ended up making a massive rant and telling every person I knew for months.

You just think it is funny to be contratan, when you're not even posting or collaborating with the community.

Cheers, I guess.

I'm doing my part!

Noted, and it aligns with my goals of being the change I want to see in the world.

I'll keep posting when I have a chance.

Sorry, you're right. I just found this community earlier today, thought it was amazing and wanted to help it grow.

And nope, that is something a friend sent me on one of my bad days to get a laugh out of me, and worked.

Odd, all I could find were a couple of allegations, and no proof, and some stalker confessing to impersonating him and other people.

Couldn't find any lawsuits either, so I'm going to assume it was just allegations for clout. An accusation alone can destroy a reputation, and it would be far from the first time either one of the two things happen (Sexual misconduct vs false allegations) so I prefer to be cautious about taking accusations like this one at face value.

What happened?

Not for a lot of people, sadly.

Bright side of Lemmy, you can say fuck. Downsides include, death of nuance, dogpiling, herd behavior and people who try to take down others.

That certainly happens too. But it is not 100% schedule, at least where I have worked, they use a risk matrix based on multiple factors including risk, pregnancy length AND personnel availability, to keep themselves from overstaffing, and that way keep the spending and budget margins under control.

I can't speak for every hospital, of course, and also there are psychological factors at play, such as the fact that telling a patient vs asking a patient gives far better and more streamlined processes.

Even if done with good intentions, often times it is not productive or time efficient to explain everything to patients, so they don't have time to argue. And while that is absolute bullshit, in my opinion patients should be informed of all relevant information, most people are not logical and rational while they're at the hospital, and this does not limit to expecting mothers.

Patients when given a chance, don't always choose treatments by success or survival rate, they might choose riskier, more expensive alternatives when faced with amputation, and the psychological effects of this on medical personnel are massive. Most doctors, when they lose a patient, lose sleep and confidence, they spiral into "I could have done this", "I should have done that", and often times letting a patient choose against what them as doctors consider the best option, and getting a bad outcome, makes them psychologically vulnerable for a while, because the medical professionals feel they weren't convincing enough, and that even if it was the patient who chose what procedure to have, it is still their own fault.

And that is only one of the reasons why healthcare worker burnout is so prevalent and risky. Most people lack the emotional fortitude not to carry those decisions with them, and that is why medical professionals are taught to be professional, clinical and distant, and can be read as them being aloof and uncaring. Because the more one connects emotionally to a situation, the harder the emotional recoil will hit us if it has a bad outcome.
