Comments by "" (@thehumanity0) on "Marianne Williamson Comes Out Against Medicare For All" video.
I'm right there with you on Buttigieg Kyle. Nearly every time he talks, I always hear an underlying layer of dishonesty, projection, and a colossal ego all masked by a tacky Obama impression. He's still, by far, the worst candidate on the stage and it has a lot to do with how he actually gets away with being that fake and some people are still fooled into thinking he's "progressive".

She literally signed the Progressive Economic Pledge weeks ago. The fact that she came out against Medicare for All on the debate stage and was arguing for why all the progressives are wrong should worry you beyond measure. As far as I can tell she's just doing the same exact thing Kamala Harris did during the first debate, saying she didn't mean what she said about Medicare for All and private insurers. Nobody should be giving her a pass for this.

That's a really low bar.

@claymusicoff5663 Britain literally has a Nationalized healthcare system. You have no idea what you're talking about. Bernie's Medicare for All bill is nowhere near as far left as the UK's system.

That's an extremely low bar

I will never trust Williamson now, and neither should anyone else who cares about these progressive issues. She literally signed the Progressive Economic Pledge and then has the nerve to stand up on stage and side with the Centrists against Medicare for All. I'm done with her.

From what I've seen, "healing crystals" are not used in the literal sense. They are technically used to help the mind, not the body. If someone believes natural gems from the Earth help balance their mental well-being, then who are you to judge? Even if the point of healing crystals is just the placebo effect for mental health, it doesn't really diminish its effectiveness. Therapy, in general, is just one giant placebo effect experiment.

You guys are weird, I'm sticking with just Copmala for a nickname

@spybird5870 You're misinterpreting me. I'm not smearing therapy (I'm actually very pro-therapy), I'm just saying that mental health is not something objectively fixed by one method or another. A therapist or guru could use healing crystals in a session, and there's no way anyone could argue its effectiveness because therapy and mental health is subjective at its core. The placebo effect comment is something I use to describe all progress of mental health because you don't really consciously get better until you THINK you get better. Mental health is tricky like that, there's no real scientific method we can use to measure it's exact progress and there's no real spectrum we can use to determine if someone is crazy and who is actually "sane" among us. That was the whole point of Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. I personally think of therapy, meditation, and mental health as a practice in brainwashing oneself to become your better self, and this is not me belittling therapy like you think, it's just my way of putting logical reasoning on something that cannot actually be quantifiably measured.
