(23) Uneducated Subsocialism—Pathological Prof.
(23) Uneducated subsocialism—pathological professionalism.
The essence of the Hippocratic Oath could be applied to all professions. It is outmoded if it ever was. Prized template addit Ion, For visuals, legitimacy and client magnet. Same with the charter of rights. No one reads that anymore. People will be content to appreciate it's meaning, what it symbolises.
I remember your arrival. At the time, it was as if you had just bounced into our lives, into the world. Now, in all your solemn dignity, by your cradle and over all your innocence and childhood, I swear it was much more than that.
It didn't seem like a crime to me then when I saw you take your first steps and stumble. Despite all your innocence and joy, I didn't expect this backlash, that you would be forced to go on without me.
I raised my voice for you, but, in the end, my life, my soul, all my love, and all your love could not stop this cruel harpooning. Now, by your empty cradle and over all your innocence and childhood, I weep.
If my life is hard, I don't see where your suffering is justified.
They do this to help us. It's what they claim. Even if it ruins and destroys us completely, I have never forgotten you. I will never forget you. In these days of suffering, I remember you.
Barely a century ago, doctors killed many people with just their dirty hands. I can't blame them for not seeing what Leeuwenhoek was able to see under the microscope a century ago.
"Prevention" and "cure" are slow in coming, sometimes for irrational reasons, sometimes for reasons such as the transition from "sepsis" to "asepsis".
Who says many people don't die needlessly again? The 21st century will be viewed as a modernized and technologically advanced middle ages. The crowning paradox would be the level of self importance and proportional to the depth of an ostritch's head in a hole.
It wouldn't be surprising. We are not that far from the Middle Ages, despite technological advances, in particular, which have created new problems.The Middle Ages endure, and not in their most beautiful form.
Remnants of many institutions remain, visibly active, and the principles underlying extortion, ransoms, lawlessness, and the Inquisition endure in another way. This is one of the meanings of change: the same thing, but differently. Some of these "same things" long predate the Middle Ages.
For example, you can be illiterate but rich, and that's a good thing.If you're illiterate and poor, it may be because you're a bit sub-social, and that's a bad thing. It means, roughly, that you have no education but a bad example.
These two conditions combined expose you to greater losses because you have no money and you can't defend yourself due to lack of education. If you at least have money, you can pay to protect your interests.That's how the rich do it, and not all of them are smart.
It takes money, because a professional has power, and his degree proves it. It will have to cost something, because it is his job, and he will help you with money.
This kind of business is a pathology. It leaves you defenseless, even if you are smart, because, in the end, it requires money. It is not necessarily based on practice or merit. If you are smart, find ways to make money.
Existence as we know it cannot be the only reality of life. It fits into a timeline. Who can claim to have all the answers, that everything is known and explained?
