This comments needs some downvotes.
Do explain why.
I'd love to read what bullshit you can vomit on here
Please elaborate.
It's largely bullshit. It has no relation to the post. And it's clear that the commenter has a unrealistic view of the world.
Sounds like you're saying a lot of bullshit with nothing to back it up.
Hell, you're not even able to refute my statement directly. You're making vague gestures to falsehoods you can't even explain. Fucking pathetic
suck my fucking dick 🖕
I'd argue the "medical technology" makes it qualify, and that there is undeniable history of racial and gender inequality when it comes to ability to contribute to medical research, which may have resulted in similar disparity when it comes to handling medical issues (for example, mishandling of endometriosis).
You'd have to be extremely deluded to think society today or in the future is holding back the proper treatment of, and research of illnessnesses in, people of color and women.
Editing cause I don't think what you said even makes sense.
That's why I said "history", the consequences of which are still felt today.
Troglodyte detected.
I know you are but what am I?
A self prophesying comment! You got your wish
Not true. It could be downvoted more. Needs more downvotes.
P. S. prophesizing*
I'll grant it should be "a self fullfilling prophecy".
But it never has a "z" in it.
That comes from incorrectly thinking it needs similar similar patterns to other verbs.
And this isn't some "simplified English" Vs "English" scenario. It's not even recognised as part of American English.

I take pride in my English, so I mean it when I say thank you.
That said, seems we're both wrong. I was wrong to correct you. You're wrong in that "prophesize" is in fact a real word. "Prophesy" and "prophesize" mean the exact same thing. The former is the older classic spelling. The latter, while newer, seems to date back as far as the 19th century.
