- Genuine question: does anyone know of social science research that explores the potential route from "absence of universal health care" -> "culture of individual responsibility for staying healthy" + "vibrant alternative medicine culture" -> "pseudo-Darwinian rejection of modern medicine"?
- I am congenitally resistant to conspiracy thinking, but this really does feel like a eugenic plot. There is some dark, pseudo-Darwinian thinking on the right that equates illness with moral unfitness, and prefers that the weak die, indeed demands that they be culled. Truly a death cult.
