@@talesin7070 most likely he would have, but emergency training may have empowered him to act quicker. (But I was mostly specifying cop because he did happen to be, vs some random person 🤷‍♀️). I will say, people in a position of authority or often being in a position of authority, especially emergency services or medical services, it can prime you to be ready to jump in a bit more than some in the general public. Often the general public is waiting for those trained to help, or think someone else is already helping... if the smoke or whatever warning signs are noticed at all. Those qualities that allowed him to jump in to help those that need it, and not being able to handle the idea of not helping, are probably a big chunk of why he chose to become an officer.

Attorney here, SCOTUS’s decision regarding the SEC, and their choice to apply the 7th amendment, is potentially worse than you think! The same arguments used by SCOTUS applies to the states and therefore it’s not just federal agencies but all agencies, state included. That means that all state agencies will have a potentially much harder time enforcing fraud fines, etc….

[@AppleStrawberryLove]

Just out of curiosity here more than anything, but wondering your thoughts. It also seems like their reasoning could create even more issues for things besides fraud. If their argument is that the fine is punishment without due process and thus violates the 7th amendment, wouldn't that make fines for say traffic violations no longer constitutional too for the same reason? And if so... I shudder to think the impact that will have on the DMVs of every state.

[@redbeard5939]

Another attorney here, and, while I agree with the analysis, I don't think it is particularly dire. If the agency/relevant statute gives the defendant the option to elect between an administrative law judge and a jury as the trier of fact, then the 7th amendment issue should be solved. While it is likely more expensive, and somewhat more time-consuming, for the state to go through with a jury trial, that is the point of the 7th Amendment. Besides, I suspect a fair amount of defendant's would elect the ALJ (as long as statistics don't end up showing that juries are significantly more favorable to the defendant).

Regarding the bliss story, having worked as a chef for about 8 years now the problem customers are extremely rarely young people. Most people my age and younger are kind to servers and don’t mess us around back of house. Now older people, 50+, a completely different story. Don’t get me wrong, 99% of people of any age are kind when they go out to eat. But I’ve had waiters in tears because of some of the shit they have to deal with from older people. I’ve had a 60+ lady scream in my face that the steak was raw (she ordered it medium rare), I’ve had an old man go to punch me in the face, I unfortunately know quite a few young female waiters who have been touched by older men. There are sooooo many horror stories I’ve either experienced or heard off other people and only one that I can think of involves someone who was in their 20’s. Like I said before, the vast majority of people are fine, but acting like young people are the ones ruining the restaurant experience is dishonest in my opinion Edit: just correcting a few spelling mistakes, dyslexia strikes again

My entire experience with doctors has been them ignoring or minimizing my symptoms due to my weight or gender. Any problem is always met with "well it's caused by your weight". They never did any testing, brushed off my concerns, and shamed me for my body. I was a minor for many of these experiences and for most obese/overweight people in the US, it is what's expected. My partner had random meds thrown at him that ultimately worsened his blood pressure and caused him to gain significant weight over the span of a few years.

Everything you said about ozempic today hit the nail on the head. I was put on it in november by a diabetes specialist who told me how to slowly increase my dosage and that she'll see me in 2 years. Didn't get any information about how to actually live on ozempic. The side effects were so bad, and anytime I turned to my GP (not an obesity specialist) about them, I was told that it's all normal and should even out. They never did, I could barely eat a meal every other day, and was throwing up constantly. Given anti-nausea meds for chemo patients, but they barely made a dent. I finally stopped taking it a month ago and I feel better in every single way! The tiny bit of weight I lost was so not worth the absolute hell that was being on this medication

Having worked in a pharmacy for about 3 years as a technician, I can confidently say that the vast majority of doctors have zero clue about the medications they are prescribing.

Even for those who are not even that big.

[@Imjustacatlady]

Ain't this the truth. I'm a big girl and weight lift everyday and the doctors still say I'm 48% body fat after 70lb weight loss and everything I complained about is because of my weight. 😆

[@DeuxAces]

Yep. I herniated a disc lifting a fridge during a move in. Every single doctor I have went to to get my back checked out has said the issue was my weight. Even after I tell them that I have been heavier with no issues for years and years, and only got my back messed up after lifting something heavy the wrong way. Like I get, the symptoms/effects of the herniated disc gets better with a lighter load, but that's not what they're saying. Some of these doctors like to straight up lie/gaslight when it comes to weight.

[@PrincessAshley972]

It's a similar issue with transgender people. Often called "transgender broken arm syndrome" where any issue is automatically considered to be connected to your gender dysphoria/hormones and not taken seriously. Same can be said for plus sized people. A lot of doctors have these biases that impact how they do their jobs and while it's sad, it's also very human

[@Imtiredofthisgrandpa]

@@Imjustacatladydid it ever occur to you that due to all of the extra weight you carry, it increases your odds of slipping your disc? Almost all health issues, muscular and spinal issues can be fixed with weight loss. I was 30 lbs overweight and my body felt like crap. Once I lost that weight, i felt like a totally different person. If you lost 70lbs, you were severely overweight.

[@Jirangaaa]

@@Imtiredofthisgrandpa you do realise that everybody is different and what works for you may not work for others.

The whole point of a "tip" was to bribe the waiter for better/faster service as a way of demonstrating wealth and power to those you're dining with.

Weight bias with doctors I have seen is a real thing! I had ankle pain for years and a doctor said it would go away with weight loss. My knee blew up and was finally diagnosed with gout. Since then I have had zero pain on the appropriate medication.

[@sativadiva2389]

I was told the pain in my ankles and legs was due to my weight and I just needed to exercise. Turns out I had a genetic physical disorder called equinus :( so many years I was told to just work harder when my muscles actually needed surgery to be able to function properly.

[@BlokedAgain]

Being overweight and a lifestyle that causes obesity is literally a major cause for Gout. Had the weight not been there, there's a reasonable expectation the gout wouldn't have occurred and or would have subsided to a manageable level - it would also be way simpler to diagnose without the weight there - Source: National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases. Weight bias is indeed a problem, but it exists because being overweight is very much a root cause for SO MANY problems. - Me, also a former fat guy.

[@ellewilliams958]

@@BlokedAgainthat doesn’t change the point that doctors will frequently blame weight without being willing to even consider other options. You could have all the symptoms explaining it only to be told “nope, it’s your weight”. Literally ignoring medical test results so they can shoo you out the door. Even if weight can cause gout that doesn’t mean you should ignore any other potential root causes. Especially when there are a lot of conditions that can cause the weight gain to be an actual symptom rather than the cause. The key is that rather it being one component in the diagnosis it becomes the ONLY component. That’s the issue. You don’t have to ignore the weight and impact it has. They do have to stop using “lose weight” as the sole treatment for all issues someone overweight faces.

[@standepain]

@@ellewilliams958 You do realize some doctors want you to lose weight not only for your own good but also to help identify ailments that aren't caused by the excessive weight if they're not visible. It sometimes can be a safer thing to do then immediately throw you own a drug or put you through unnecessary imaging that could cost you a fortune unless they have too. You said they ignored test results but what test results? Gout in it's early stages doesn't typically show up on x-rays and if they ran a test for uric acid levels they're not going to risk a malpractice lawsuit by not treating you if you have high levels.

Beyond the supply issues, I am someone that's been hit off and on with side effects like nausea, vomiting, fatigue, etc. That said, it's also lowered my A1C enough that, while on the med, I am no longer considered pre-diabetic and it's also helped control some of the symptoms of my PCOS even though that's not the intended use. I got lucky with my primary doctor being fairly knowledgeable regarding obesity treatment, but she's also open to hearing research I do or find that may be relevant. Over the year+ of being on it, I've had appointments with her every 3-6 months to touch base, check my blood levels, monitor side effects, etc. Unfortunately I know a LOT of people don't have that experience with their doctors though.

I am diabetic and obese, and I've been on Ozempic since 2020. Honestly, my doctor just put me on it and told me how much to take weekly without mentioning the side effects or that it could help me lose weight. In fact, I only learned about its weight loss benefits when Phill started reporting on it.

[@Windmelodie]

I think there just needs to be so much more done to properly deal with obesity in health services aside from just "eat better and exercise and all your problems will go away". There are many reasons for obesity aside from what people think (laziness and gluttony). Case in point, I'm also obese and went through my life with doctors telling me to just do sports and eat better. I tried and nothing worked, I thought it was all my fault and that I wasn't trying hard enough. It took until I was 25 to correctly be diagnosed with PCOS (a hormone condition that, among other symptoms, leads to uncontrolled weight gain). In combination with PCOS, I also had insulin resistance (pre-diabetes, often goes hand in hand with PCOS with one making the other worse). While being treated for that, I still felt weak and without energy to do things and still gained weight. It then took until I was 30 years old until doctors finally checked my thyroids and found out I also have hypothyroidism. So it took until I was 30 for doctors to find out I had 3 medical conditions that severely impact my weight and contribute to my obesity and up until then I got constantly shamed for being a lazy glutton. Now I'm finally receiving medication and slowly regaining some energy, but have to now struggle with carrying all that weight around. Had my doctors taken my issues seriously sooner and actually checked me for those issues before just blaming my lifestyle, a lot of this probably could have been avoided. I'm not one to cry fatshaming or fatphobia, but in the medical industry, it IS a huge problem. I'm sorry your doctor didn't explain things to you properly, but I do hope that you can benefit from the use of the medication.

[@patrickcoursey7288]

@@Windmelodie Thanks for sharing your personal story. The issues surrounding obesity extend to research as well as I'm sure you can imagine. In the video, Phil called obesity a cause of health issues; however, there is no research to suggest a casual relationship between higher body fat and health issues. What we do have would be a correlational relationship, and a rather weak one at that. You've probably heard this one already, but the correlational relationship between a man being bald and him having heart disease is actually far higher than that between an obese person and their development of heart disease. I don't see anyone jumping up to take the fight against America's male pattern baldness epidemic though, so we seem to have a double standard that is favored to view fat as a more valid metric of health. Fat and weight however are perhaps the most invalid, unreliable, and foolish ways to measure health, which in itself is a sticky concept, but maybe I'll discuss that in another comment so as to not go on a tangent. When we have correlates, there is something we can learn still. Though it would be tremendously dishonest and unethical to claim a weak correlate as a causal interaction, (which is what doctors, the media, and even our boy Phil just did) this relationship can tell us about the world we live in and the potential extraneous variables which may be at play here. It is like we are capturing and observing the thing we want to observe, but the data tells us that we aren't looking at the right variable. This is when the question is asked, "what is the correct variable?" My guess is stress. I don't know your life, but I do know that you shared 30 years of being told you were lazy, a glutton, and not being fully taken seriously by doctors because of their prejudice (not just a buzzword, literally meaning that they put judgment on you before taking into account the whole story). I can only imagine that this sentiment was echoed in other domains of your life, and I cannot imagine that was easy. That is stress, likely trauma too. Among all groups with statistically significant correlational data showing a relationship between their personal identifiers and a higher risk for heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes, there are studies to suggest heightened stress as well. Some of this is common sense I think. Going bald is big change and bald men (women aren't studied nearly as much for this) report blows to their self esteem and in turn more stress. We already discussed the stress of being outcasted by society just for having a larger build, and then you can go down the list if you wish regarding the other populations with an increased correlate and risk with these diseases. Stress has more going for it too, as studies have shown their own correlational relationships between stress and heart disease, higher cholesterol, and diabetes. (there is actually some causal data there too, but it isn't in humans). Weight and fat have also been shown to be increasingly dependent upon genetic factors, at least in a vacuum. The most recent development I saw demonstrated that 80% of a person's weight and fat allocation/abundance is determined by their genetics. This falls in line with the genetic predictors for the other relationships we observe, such as with baldness and skin color (adding this here because of the correlates between being a woman of color and having heart disease etc.) I would hope that doctors would not interpret this data to suggest that being a person of color or being bald is inherently unhealthy, but the same rule seems to not apply to weight/fat. Many in the body positive community actually refer to fatphobia as just a rebranded racism. While I am not too educated in the facts behind this, I can definitley see where they are coming from based on the aforementioned discrepancies in interpreting data. Fat/weight shouldn't be a way that we measure health. Fat/weight also shouldn't be THE way we measure health. I can see the argument for it being a symptom of some underlying disease (such as your example with the three conditions); however, I would still exercise caution with not overdoing this approach either. I don't want to ramble too much as I already have, so I want to end with an analogy. Gasoline doesn't cause fires, it's just flammable. If firefighters and the general public thought that gasoline was the cause of all fires, we would probably be living in a much more dangerous and ignorant world.
