What the fuck are you talking about?? What the fuck is there for me to "lock in" to?

My issue is with the multitude of mutts who can't keep their political opinions to themselves about an ongoing incident, what the fuck does that have to do with my ability to do my job? What's basic about that??

It sounds like you take issue with my statement and are digging for something completely off-topic to belittle me with. You have no clue who I am, how long I've done this job, nor just how good I am at my job.

Any rational, compassionate provider would be appalled at the mutts injecting their own politics into this disaster. It flies in the face of the oath. If you even remotely care about the job, that shit should upset you.

Maybe reevaluate where you're coming from.

I guess somebody didn't like what I had to say, so I'll say it again:

You're 27. You have no business calling anybody "young". I've been doing this job since you were a freshman in high school. Maybe don't make assumptions so you can belittle somebody you don't know on the internet.

If you cared about the job, the mindless politicization should upset you. That's not a "basic concept", that's bullshit. You're saying nonsense just to talk and sound more important. How about we just don't politically slant anything while the incident is ongoing? How about just acting like a decent human being?
