    Actually, these have been common since President Trump began his second term, but they’ve really ramped up since the beginning of combat in the Gulf. This one wants all MAGA supporters to jump off bridges so that she can take pleasure in watching. Others, cutting a lot closer to the bone, have stated that they’d refuse care to MAGA supporters or, in one case, take steps during treatment to ensure that they wouldn’t recover. (I heard that this one was fired, but I haven’t been able to track the story down to verify that.) In other words, acting like those medical psychopaths who deliberately target patients.

    The response to these vids has been one of surprise and shock: these young women have embarked on careers devoted to caring for the sick and helpless. Yet here they are wishing pain, misery, and even death to those who hold different opinions.

    There exists a medical protocol called the Liverpool Care Pathway. It was pioneered by the British National Health Service as a means of saving money regarding the treatment of terminal patients. It is widely used in Europe and Canada, and has made inroads in a number of hospices in the U.S. (The NHS claims that it has been "discontinued," but it remains in use under other names.)

    What it amounts to, behind the filigree of abstruse medical terminology, is injecting dying patients with large doses of morphine, then walking out and closing the door. That’s it, really. Patients are given no water or nourishment, just another morphine shot every few hours to keep ‘em quiet. After a few days, they die of thirst, and then they shovel ‘em into a ditch.

And who is it who's giving those injections  Why, it wouldn’t be the nurses, would it

    As in most similar procedures, definitions have expanded as time passed. What began with “terminal patients” expanded to “poor patients” and then “troublesome patients.” In the UK, a man learned that his mother, in the hospital for a minor and unrelated matter, was being subject to the “Care Pathway.” When he arrived to remove her, the kindly, humane nurses called the cops. (The cops sided with him. The man’s mother lived another five years at home.)

    It doesn’t take much effort to add “MAGA patients” to that list.

    So why the surprise  These young women are products of their milieu – a “healthcare system” that elevates profits and efficiency, that lacks empathy, decency, and humanity. They have locked unwanted infants in closets to die. They have assisted in partial-birth abortions. They have injected patients with heavy doses of morphine so that they’ll die more quickly. Compassion has been trained out them. They are programmed assassins, soft machines as terrifying as any killer android in a sci-fi dystopia.

    The Nazis did something similar back in 1940, prior to the Holocaust, in a program called Aktion T4. The civilized world condemned it after word leaked out. It acted as a test run for the Holocaust itself.

    How far we have fallen. How far we have left to fall.
