What incentive would there be for someone to go to school for 10 years post-high school and become a doctor, just to have the same lifestyle as someone who's flipping burgers at McLenin's? As someone whos been through medical school and is in an OB/GYN residency... fucking lol --- |

No, sometimes the same word is used differently, but homophobes should just go right ahead and keep crying about how they're not afraid of homosexuals, they just hate their guts.I'm surely convinced they're not turd humans then.

Thats a misleading term that should be eradicated. A calorie is simply a unit of energy, the amount required to raise 1g of water by 1 degree C. We measure food in kcals or Calories with a capital C.

Trans actors for the most part only get to play trans characters, so when a high profile movie featuring a trans main character comes along and they give it to Scarlet Johansson...well, it's sort of like if they made a movie with a dwarf as the main character, but then gave that role to Dwayne Johnson. It's like, yeah, they could probably make it work with CGI but why not just give that role to an actual dwarf Call me cynical, but yes. --- |

He comes off as a little unstable and uses YouTube as his therapist. Decent guy but he should be getting professional help.

Topic | "hehe so much for the tolerant left loool" |
MrPeppers 07/13/18 9:07:19 PM #57 | Deadpool_18 posted... Theres a mountain of irony in people wanting their intolerance of others to be tolerated by the same people theyre being intolerant towards. Not wanting to be outwardly supportive and accepting of something like the LGBTQ community, but not wanting to interfere with their goals is being tolerant. Some individuals get very upset if you voice disapproval of some things, even though you preface it with no desire to interfere with their trajectory, and accuse you of bigotry. I realize this is not a majority of people, but its a significant portion. --- |

Yeah the other dude's being a prick to him but he came up with some seriously misinformed statements earlier in the topic and misdirected anger. And it looks like he's sticking his flag in the one statement he was correct about (breast cancer is not the most lethal, still incorrect about prostate cancer being more lethal as it actually has the best prognosis out of all cancers in males) and he's conveniently failing to acknowledge how misinformed he was. --- |

MrPeppers 07/12/18 10:05:57 PM #132 | Lol did you just go back and stealth edit your other post? The whole point is that there is justification for funneling money into breast cancer research, and money for cancer research is not zero sum. One foundation receiving millions of dollars for research does not mean another foundation was deprived of those funds and it's literally insane to even imply that. And if you were to even be consistent with your hare-brained logic, you should be pining for pancreatic cancer research as it is a fucking atrocious form of cancer with abysmal survival rates. You're complaining about breast cancer research and attributing its foundation to feminists when epidemiologists, researchers, physicians, and organizations of highly qualified individuals much, much more versed on any of this than either you or your boogeyman feminists are the driving force behind it. --- |

Breast cancer still has the highest prevalence of any other cancer in the US. Higher than prostate, higher than colon, higher than lung. Breast cancer also has a higher incidence than all other cancers. Thanks to cancer research, the 5 year survival for certain types of breast cancer, most notably estrogen receptor positive cancers and progestin receptor positive cancers, has significantly improved. https://gis.cdc.gov/Cancer/USCS/DataViz.html Click on prevalence in that link --- |

In any other business she would have been fired. Why is it wrong here? How many lifetime warnings does one need for being grossly unprofessional? She should just continue to be openly hostile to whoever she wants, and she needs warnings beforehand? Imagine if your doctor talked down to you like that because you refused a vaccine and she felt slighted by your attempt to tell her how to do her job. --- |

But it shouldn't even be a matter of who supports who. That employee is a PR nightmare. Man or woman, I would dread having someone that inflammatory interact with clients/customers/patients. It blows my mind that someone can have so little restraint as to not berate a consumer publicly, and has apologists for it. I mean Christ this employee had the luxury of seeing what she typed before even hitting send; it's not like an "accidental" slip of tongue. This shouldn't even be about gamergate or whatever attached harrassment campaign. It's a basic exercise in an employer not being able to stand by an representative's actions and having to let that person go as a result. --- |

MrPeppers 07/10/18 10:54:05 PM #175 | Was firing her warranted, TC? After looking at the situation, even if you break it down into some arbitrary percentage of how much she deserved to get fired or deserved defense by her employer. At the end of the day, was the call to fire her appropriate? And a followup question: Did she act professionally? --- |
