For me it is the medical profession that is taking the biggest hit. However, our government is far and away #1 in my book.
Gee Whiz, ...
How do you bunch Chiropractors, with Business executives and the clergy?
After 50+ years of effort, they've finally gained control of these institutions, and are trying to force society to change.
Society is saying no.
Gee, I can’t imagine why......
Count me in.
My attitude toward the medical establishment has gone from general ambivalence to visceral distrust.
While they are good for acute problems and emergencies, they have no interest in healing, rather they just want you coming back and paying more.
Police need to study and follow the constitution and must be held accountable when they abrogate your rights.
Government needs to be destroyed except for all the things they do right.
A comprehensive list of government accomplishments follows.
All the institutions are crashing hard.
Wear a useless mask, ,castrate kids…go figure.,
KenyanKare explains the fall in the medical world, socialism kills. The congress and the senate are at the bottom where they belong, however 8% is a little high. 1% would be generous.
On the upside, my trust in journalists is exactly where it’s always been.
I listen to the DoctorRadio channel on satellite radio. Yes I have lost a lot of trust in the medical profession.
Some of the docs are high quality with character. But many are believers of the Left and Wokeness.
Only because politicians are so far down already... I hope.
I'll trade you any of them for a decent plumber, mechanic, or utility worker.
We are rushing heading into Weimar Republic like situation.
All pillars of society have deteriorated and this is in a period of relative peace and prosperity.
Just wait when the butcher’s bill of government borrowing and spending comes due.
It wouldn’t be pretty.
And it certainly doesn’t help that the “medical profession” went full Nazi, first lying about the origin of the Wuhan coronavirus, before propagandizing about the “vaccines”, silencing and demonizing those with legitimate questions, blocking access to cheap and effective treatments, and forcing people to take the “vax.”
The “medical profession” is no longer about the practice of medicine, it’s about promulgating the Leftist agenda through propaganda and control.
“...and especially positions of institutional power.”
You mean like Mother Government in all her glory? *SNORT*
Now THAT’S a shocker! ;)
IMO, multiple factors have dragged the medical profession into disrepute...
1. Covid pandemic. Many doctors mindlessly spouted untruths not only about the safety and efficacy of the vaxxes but also on topics such as natural immunity, masking, herd immunity etc. People don’t have amnesia. They remember that doctors, with great confidence and certainty, told them things that turned out to be untrue.
2. Transgenderism. People hear about the medical establishment going all in this madness, supporting child mutilation with sex changes etc.
3. Abortion. People see young doctors clamoring in the media for abortion, protesting Dobbs etc., and question... hey, do these people want to save lives or end them?
Doctors gave us a fake pandemic and lockdowns.
Police enforced the lockdowns, sometimes to a ridiculous degree.
No surprise they lost respect.
