I kind of assume Carney is part of the new liberal establishment (think Clinton, Biden but also Bush) so recently overthrown by Trumpism in the US - but I’m not Canadian so it’s a little fuzzy.

To be fair, giraffes are stupid sexy. 🦒

I sense a challenge coming on…

Thank you for still caring

Doctors being jerks are sometimes required to do professional coaching to improve attitude and communication. Having less hierarchical communication actually improves patient safety, because people are braver to speak up.

White Americans have been raised to believe the most preposterous set of lies about ourselves (land of freedom, etc) and the amount of effort to sustain that belief despite all evidence to the contrary is hard to imagine. Effort from the ruling class (eg “god save America” at the baseball game) but also internal efforts from the people themselves - because the collapse of the lie tears your self image apart. This actually started during the George Floyd Black Lives Matter moment but the reaction the other way brings us back to Trump.
