Twitter and other comments are not an accurate representation of any group of people. They are filled with the lowest common denominator, trolls, the perpetually outraged, and bots.

Seriously, the AMA is complete horseshite organization. They spam junk mail to physicians to “renew their membership”, when said physicians were never members.

He said “No physician is racist.” That is a very dumb statement. There are thousands of racist physicians. Should he be fired over it? Probably not, but he should be ridiculed.

As a white Democrat I’m here to say, you can’t have opinions that don’t align with mine. Y’all should join me. All the white Democrats and myself on this board agree, we feel like Gods around minorities. They don’t know any better, we know better for them.

It’s a controversial tweet that was trying to get listeners to a podcast. Not defending it, but I’m guessing the podcast content did not reflect the tweet.

Even the most vocal social media users don’t represent the average social media user. They just scream the loudest and most often. Social media tends to give people a skewed perception of reality which ends up causing more issues as people react to this extremely false presented world.

It's not 13% crying, there are plenty of black people who don't participate in these reindeer games.


Near where I live, there is a corner that's been turned into a monument, with pictures, posters and flowers. At a glance, you might mistake it for a BLM thing. It's a 90% black area, and pretty poor.

If you look closer, though, it's a monument to all the innocent victims of the violence that's going on now. Breonna Taylor is in there, I think, but there's no George Floyd, and the most prominent poster right now is of a white police officer who was shot dead- big picture with his "last watch" date.

There are also a lot of little black kids memorialized, each killed by some criminal's stray bullet.

I have a hard time driving by that monument. There is so much good in the people who made it. They are being let down, profoundly.

It’s impossible to have racism in health care.

It just doesn’t work like that. Medical treatment doesn’t go based off skin color

The tweet and the podcast sparked an outcry from other medical professionals, who called both 'cringeworthy' and 'appalling'
So what do they want? They want him to call medical professionals “a bunch of racist motherfrickers!”

Goddamn I hate the left.

Agreed. Black folks hate cancel culture and identity politics as made evident by their 88% vote for Democrats.

The black people on there are

1. Under 25 and have never known racism against themselves, only that which they have shown others.

2. Fake blacks like Rachel Dolzeal or whatever Honkyette’s name was.

3. Internet trolls who just want to watch the chaos.

This is what I posted about earlier.

The monument is always changing, but right now there's a big picture of a white DeKalb Police officer who was killed there.

Black people maintain this monument daily. They're just tired of crime.

Secoria is the #1 name I have seen at this memorial.

The people who made the memorial need to be heard.

I am not a Racist, but I AM a WOKEIST.

If you are woke, I don’t like you. Neither you nor you’re tyrannical mental pathogen.

It makes NO difference if you’re white or black or brown.

And I'd bet ALOT of money the vast majority of that percentage are white liberals telling black folk what should offend them and be considered racist.

No physician is racist, so how can there be structural racism in health care?'


Technically speaking, he's not fully correct. Of course there are some racist physicians. Just by playing a pure numbers game. If you take 1000 physicians. At least 1 of them will turn out to be racist.

I’ve done a few CE’s to get easy credits on structural racism in healthcare specifically so I could give them 0’s on evaluations. Literally anything they are applying to racism could be applied to classism
