Based on the flying monkey attacks a while ago, I am totally not shocked to find nurses running at the mouth about their political opinions over Charlie Kirk.
But a clear take away from a lot of them was that there's a shortage of nurses, especially since COVID.
We're now firing nurses for having a political opinion, why would we do that when there's a shortage?
Because these nurses have, essentially, expressed that someone whose political opinions align with Charlie Kirk might not get their best level of care. Or worse.
Unlike the flying monkeys, these nurses are saying they'd let someone die over their politics.
The funny part for me is when anybody claims that these firings infringe on free speech. LOL nope. Consider this: from time to time, even with everybody doing their best (more often if they aren't), every medical facility will have a patient die. Sometimes, such a patient will have been wearing a Charlie Kirk shirt. If somebody broadcast to the world that Charlie Kirk deserved to die, having such a person in the room is an easily avoidable risk of having to make a huge cash payout. Also, an easily avoidable risk of being morally responsible for that death. Freedom of speech does not require other people to take stupid risks on your behalf.
ReplyDeleteFiring every blood-dancing ghoul as soon as you learn you have such an employee is a dandy way to mitigate such risk. Everybody wins but the ghoul, and my response to the suffering of ghouls is howls of derisive laughter.
