https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/maha-doctors-love-donald-trump/Every day they show up to work, with sweet declarations of love for Trump pouring from their lips, they are further reaffirming their decision to bind themselves to everything he does.
At first I thought this would be satire but, unfortunately, it seems to be a reality to the cultists.
"God gave us two arms, one to vote for Donald J. Trump"
To gain power and deflect criticism, MAHA doctors marketed themselves as neutral scientists and cloaked themselves in science's protective norms. They demanded to be treated with the utmost civility, as befits esteemed scientists, and felt entitled to have their pro-infection agenda debated in scientific forums. They sanctimoniously warned others:
Of course, this was pure theater. Although MAHA doctors denied being political, even while speaking at political rallies, in reality they were primarily political actors, and they didn't hide this at all. The same doctors who faked a concern about mixing politics and science openly campaigned for Trump and hurled false, juvenile accusations against his perceived opponents in overtly political forums. MAHA doctors didn't spend the pandemic in labs or hospitals, and an entire chapter of Everyone Else Is Lying to You was devoted to their overt political activism, though this just scratched the surface.
"I just love him"
These performances worked though. Their auditions were successful. Trump won the election and their advocacy on his behalf catapulted MAHA doctors to power. Today, as their boss requires, they continue to behave like love-stricken teenagers and lavish praise on Trump at every opportunity.

We can't allow questions of science, medicine, and public health to become captives of tribalized politics.

(44,986 posts)2. Yet they were ready to put Dr. Fauci, a really good doctor with excellent credentials, in jail
Still not clear on what crime they think he committed. I think Dr. Fauci was doing his best to keep us well against the strongest kind of anti-science administration. I have a lot of respect for Dr. Fauci. I have none for RFK Junior.
