What I have learned, and the next chapter in my journey

@broadwaybabyto Don’t people understand that we’ve been in an ableist genocidal crisis for years now?

Health supremacy is no different than the white supremacy or male supremacy, except it may be a little worse because we are blamed for being disabled rather than something is that is beyond our control.

“Wellness” is eugenics adjacent. It’s always been about hiding or eliminating the disabled and chronically ill, not about actually helping them.

If you’re sick? It’s your fault. You didn’t try hard enough to get better. You didn’t eat the right foods, take the right potions or exercise enough.

Wellness “influencers” are exceedingly dangerous to disabled and chronically ill people, because they push the idea that we could get better if we ‘really wanted to’.

So why are we making one the US Surgeon General? And what does it mean for those of us living with chronic illness?

Why The New Surgeon General Pick Might Be The Most Dangerous One Yet

Wellness "Influencer" Casey Means has been selected as the next US Surgeon General, despite having an inactive medical license. Her viewpoints range from nonsensical to absurdly dangerous.

20.10.2024 Presseclub: Kassen vor dem Kollaps: Wird Gesundheit unbezahlbar?

Zu Gast u.a. Kaja Klapsa (WELT), die meint, wir müssten darüber diskutieren, ob Chemotherapien am Lebensende weiterbezahlt werden sollten? Oder teure künstliche Beatmungen ohne lebensverlängernde Prognosen?

Und im Text vom Presseclub: "Brauchen wir eine ehrliche Debatte darüber, wer welche Versorgung künftig vollumfänglich beanspruchen kann und wer nicht?"

#HealthSupremacy: "Wer nicht?"

Kassen vor dem Kollaps: Wird Gesundheit unbezahlbar?

Die Versicherten der gesetzlichen Krankenversicherung müssen ab 2025 so viel für ihre Gesundheit zahlen wie noch nie. Dabei hat Deutschland schon heute das teuerste Gesundheitssystem Europas. Warum reicht das Geld trotzdem nicht? Worauf müssen wir uns einstellen?

"Ihr solltet Euch nicht über die #COVID19 Durchseuchungsopfer aufregen, sondern über die politische Entscheidung dazu. Im Resultat sind alle betroffen.
Stichworte hierzu sind Lage der Wirtschaft, Beiträge zur Kranken- und Pflegeversicherung, Diskussionen über Lohnfortzahlung, Streichen von Behandlungen bei Älteren oder nicht kurativ Behandelbaren usw. …"

Abled supremacy is a cornerstone of white supremacy and settler colonialism. They do not exist separately, it’s the interconnectedness that keeps the wheels of capitalism, genocide, and the medical industrial complex churning. Dismantling systems of oppression must be linked through radical intersectionality. We cannot have a free society with for profit medical care, built on disabled death and abuse. “doctors” often police access to care, and support objectifying disabled bodies for “research purposes”. Dismantling the inherent ableist power dynamics that medical professionals are indoctrinated with takes a lifetime of unlearning, and advocating against. Listen and learn from disabled folx, especially disabled Black and Brown communities. #COVID19 #intersectionality #abledsupremacy #anticapitalism #ableism #WearAMask #MedicalIndustrialComplex #healthSupremacy
