If you ever consider a job where you have to care for people, you are not allowed to be a bigot. I don’t give a shut if you’ve “always wanted to be a nurse”. Quit. Now. If you are in a position where people depend on you, you cannot be selfish.

Doctors, Nurses, Teachers. If you are a transphobe, racist, sexist, homophobic, antisemitic, ableist, eugenicist, fatphobic, misogynist, any of that shit. Quit right fucking now. You cannot be trusted to care for people unless you are able to put aside your biases and help people.

We’ve all heard stories of that shitty bully who became a nurse and acts like they never tormented the weird kid at school. The nurses who don’t like you because you’re not a typical case. The doctors who dismiss the person with a brain tumour because she happens to be fat.

If you are a Fucking bigot about anything you can get the fuck out of your job. If you won’t help everyone no matter who they are, you cannot do your Fucking job.

#I’m aware most bigots don’t think they are #and the rest are too stubborn #I am so fed up #my mum nearly died of a brain tumour because doctors called her neurological symptoms “excess adipose tissue #as if being fat can cause fainting and dizzy spells and loss of motor control #and all her other symptoms #fatphobia has killed people #racism has killed people #antisemitism has killed people #transphobia has killed people #homophobia has killed people #ableism has killed people #all of these things and more have killed so many people #because it’s imperative that people be treated right #and they rarely ever are #especially in medical settings
