@ChaosIsMel There isnt a better treatment. I literally need it to survive and will die in extreme agony if i go more than a few days without. So tired of diabetes being monolithized by the media so they can justify withholding medicine to people on the basis of personal moral failures
@NGoodChuck@ChaosIsMel You fundamentally don't understand diabetes. Every human being needs insulin to survive, period. When I was a kid my body killed all my cells that produce insulin and now I die in 2 days without it. Nothing can replace it. You're defending mass death just to play devils advocate.
@TheDemocrats Why do the Democrats continue to use suffering diabetics to score cheap political points while doing absolutely nothing to help us?
Your legislation leaves insulin at $300/vial. Any diabetic without insurance must pay that to survive.
Stop using diabetics as political pawns
@sugarbbybrinaa @Bri_Elyse1 They get super defensive and vitriolic when we provide them with the facts, sadly twitter education doesn't seem to do much to combat ableism. Only way to get through to them is to have them throw a tantrum then stew in their guilt and embarrassment for a long while.
@Bri_Elyse1 @sugarbbybrinaa Awwww little crybaby coward blocks me so I cant even see the reply. Seems like you're more bothered by this than we are and can't stand up to criticism very well when you know you're wrong
@Bri_Elyse1 @sugarbbybrinaa I don't see where she said that, but it's a pretty popular and well-recognized expression for blindly supporting someone's bad takes. Theres a million ways to say "get fucked" without sounding like you're obsessed with their sexuality in real life but apparently you dont know any
@Bri_Elyse1 @sugarbbybrinaa You literally just reduced all of diabetes to "sugary drinks" when we fight for our lives daily. And to imply health struggles can't be intersectional is really gross of you. You think racism homophobia etc. can't make managing someones diabetes even more difficult for them?
@AkilahObviously@Bri_Elyse1 @sugarbbybrinaa *spends all day spreading dangerous misinfo about diabetes* WAAAAA WAAAA ITS NOT ABOUT YOU WAAAAA WAAA LEAVE ME ALONE jfc get over yourself
@AkilahObviously You keep talking about how stigma doesnt exist, but THIS IS stigma. Your belief that no diabetic can ever drink a butter beer helps perpetuate it, you're seriously fucking gross. We can eat and drink whatever we want, if you really knew anything about diabetes you'd know that
@AkilahObviously @jc21403 @laurenthehough Youre just making stuff up now. Diabetics get passed up for jobs all the time wtf are you talking about. Why are you so dedicated to invalidating our struggles?
