A Department of Veterans Affairs memo obtained by ProPublica erects new roadblocks to care for veterans with the rare but deadly cancer. The agency cites no new science but relies on an executive order about “restoring biological truth” in government.

    Mom, a former-nurse, who ended-up working in Canada’s federal-disability program as its chief file-fixer,

    told me that breast-cancer gets both women & men,

    but because in men it’s got sooo little distance to critical-organs, it is much less survivable, for men, on average.

    By the time you discover it, … usually it’s too-late, & you’re a goner.

    Typical sadism, by the ideologues’ part, it is…

    This is going to get FAR worse, & it isn’t going to “get better”.

    Humankind’s running-away-from responsibility is an addiction, & it’ll just keep fighting for its totalitarian-dominion.

    Ever seen a addict fighting against their unconscious-mind’s junk-addiction, when their unconscious-mind’s addiction’s committed to breaking their life, to “prove who’s BOSS”, & they … just get destroyed, & dead?

    Humankind’s doing that, globally…

    it isn’t quite obvious-enough, yet, but in a few more years, there won’t be any more “time for thinking”, because it’ll all be reacting-time, to the rampaging ideologies that are highjacking everything…

    People who reject evidence, gaslighting about “biological truth”…

    Typical…

      This isn’t about humanity in general, except in the sense that we’re not taking the necessary steps to prevent sociopaths from ever getting near positions of authority.
