Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

How in God's name could that be "bigotry"

An astonishing number of people can't distinguish "hatred based on target's intrinsic, immutable features" from "hatred based on target's opinions."

Almost like there are a ton of bad-faith actors out there intentionally muddying the waters, isn't it?

Yeah that was autocorrect for some reason

It can possibly be seen as bigotry against the patients that have received denial of coverage, but even that is a stretch.

Some fuckwits would actually argue this I guarantee it.

It's what they do.

To be fair, the title might have been a tad more sarcastic than people might first think :)

Because greedy scumbag CEOs are a minority class?
