[Community][Podcasts] Healthcare workers for Neil Young

[csheaa]

All the Neil Young songs are gone from my playlists. He’s one of my favorite artists of all time.

Also, I’m a medical student and SO MANY OF MY PATIENTS HAVE COVID.

DEAR JOE ROGAN,

DEAR SPOTIFY,

Do you know what I get to do every day? Diagnose unvaccinated covid patients with BRAIN DEATH. Which my attending physician confirms, and then I try to drown out my thoughts with music on my drive home.

Do you understand the human cost of keeping illogical, implausible, mind-numbingly stupid covid misinformation online? Do you know what feels like to be hit by a train when you realize during physical exam that your patient has no brain activity? Do you think we like it? Wanna come spend a day? 

Do you understand the toll your actions have on others? Why are you doing this? It’s twisted and disturbing that healthcare workers have to carry the weight of the world as you pay Joe Rogan 100 million dollars to lie to all of our patients who listen to his podcast. We’re the ones who have to convince them that science is real, and they laugh.

You’re profiting from a deadly movement while others suffer and do the dirty work.
