Not sure that anyone is truly defending this girl or her actions, just saying that it's not the big deal the republicans in this thread are presenting it as

There are definitely people defending her.

Who is defending her?

Obviously the tweet was a mistake. But the response from conservatives is over-the-top. “Victim”?

The posters who keep calling other people names and telling them to die in a ditch, etc, while simultaneously insisting—absent any supporting facts—that the stick was unintentional are absolutely defending her.

We cannot know with the facts provided whether the stick was unintentional or not. But her defenders can’t even be honest about that reality.

Uh, I've said in this thread multiple times that we can't prove whether or not the stick was intentional. Saying that she doesn't deserve to lose her career over this is not defending her.

Fine but there are multiple posters (or maybe one prolific poster) who are repeatedly insisting it was unintentional. You are being deliberately obtuse by ignoring them. They are absolutely defending her, and yet if the scenario was reversed, they’d absolutely be calling loudly for expulsion. Come on. You know this is true.

That’s not “defending” - just calling out facts.

Making up false facts to defend her is in fact defending her.

Ffs. That's like saying Austin, Texas or Atlanta, Georgia are full of "rubes."

Interesting how these cities were full of liberal elites when they went to Biden in 2020 but now OP is suddenly convinced they're full of poor Trump voters.

Wait. Are people trying to say they don’t think there are dumba$$ MAGAs in Winston-Salem? We even have them here in DC - just look at this thread.

She explained the situation and a friend chimed in.

Unless you’re calling them both liars.

The really terrifying thing is to consider all of her actions, decisions, and thoughts she wasn't dumb enough to tweet.

I'm from North Carolina. Kind of rude you think North Carolinians are "flyover state trash and rubes."

I'm a new poster and agree that is really rude. But at the risk of being rude myself, I'm pretty amused at UVA being describedd "rich" and "coastal" and that Wake Forest has been described as "elite." "Flyover Land" is what you fly over between NYC and LA. Neither southern VA or North Carolina even gets flown over.

Wake Forest and UVA are elite college bubbles full of born privileged UMC and rich kids. Many if not the overwhelming majority of the students at both despise the unwashed locals from the fairly downtrodden region. Once you get out of the college bubble, the region around both schools gets pretty backwater in a hurry. But I guess we can play pretend the guy she apparently purposely poked was some affluent clean cut businessman in a $1,500 Hugo Boss suit and not like some uneducated trashy maga local without a pot to piss in.

LMFAO at you saying Winston-Salem and Charlottesville are "fairly downtrodden" cities full of "unwashed locals." Sweetie, those are two of the most affluent areas in the country.

Seriously. I am from NC, went to college in VA, so a lot of NC/VA kids and everyone from Winston-Salem and Charlottesville was rich. Most of them went to private school, but the two who went to public school were also rich. Bizarre pp is trying to claim that, oh, people from Winston-Salem are poor MAGAs, and the med student was abusing them!!!

Bizarre? It's US Census data. The avg home is $150k, half the town rents, median income is $29k, 20% below the poverty line. Outside of the WF bubble, it's a bleak place. Which is why this privileged student is going to get away with it. No doubt the victim is some low class white guy, so he doesn't really matter to the Ivory Tower elites.

My parents' home is $300k and my dad made $800k last year. That's just how it is in second-tier cities where the property values are lower than in NYC/DC/SF/Philly.

Are you the same poster who took offense on behalf of your not-even-fly-over-land state before? Winston-Salem is a "second-tier" city? Then what's a third-tier city! There are a lot of factors that could reasonably determine tiers, but I'm not sure DC and SF would stay in the first tier in all systems, and there's no way Philadelphia belongs there. Philadelphia could generously be called second tier, maybe. I don't know, Winston, NC is not top three, wherever it should fall. That doesn't mean there isn't some local money, but come on... it's not much of a place and most of us will never have reason to go there.

I am not that poster but "second-" tier city is a real estate term. Cities are actual cities like NYC and SF. Yes, DC and Philly would be included. Boston and Chicago too. Second-tier cities are smaller cities. She's not objectively ranking cities and then making tiers. My dh is in real estate and uses this term frequently. DC is a city. When we visit my parents in Cincinnati, that is a second-tier city. There are no third- and fourth- and fifth-tiers. It's just big cities and then smaller cities.

The Piedmont Triad is the manufacturing hub of the southeast, so many of us do travel there for work frequently. It's a nice area. Weird how you are arguing that it's trashy while simultaneously arguing that only woke liberal elites think the entire southeast is trashy...meanwhile several of us are trying to tell you that Winston-Salem is quite lovely.

I'm arguing the irrelevance of both southern Virginia and North Carolina and their regional universities to those of us not involved in manufacturing whose affiliations are confined to supercities. There is a different poster discussing "woke liberal elites."

Which, still not appropriate and deserves to be reprimanded but GOP news sources are acting like she amputated the guy's leg or something on purpose. She was cavalier about a common occurrence that causes no longterm harm. It was insensitive.

It’s true it’s commonplace to miss the vein and it doesn’t cause long term harm. But her attitude was beyond cavalier. She acted like it was funny and implied it was fitting, and served the fellow, who wasn’t woke, right. You would expect that she might feel bad, but she doesn’t appear to feel remorse. That is what is problematic for a future health care professional.

Exactly. The posters defending her or calling other posters RWNJ or bigots need to grow up.

Are you saying that Rand Paul’s wife is not a RWNJ?

She may be a libertarian nutjob.

When she hysterically pushes anti-trans news stories she's RWNJ.

I would not be calling for her expulsion. I would be hoping that the medical school didn't cave to the woke mob and "cancel" a dumb 20something over an opportunity to correct not only that student, but her peers. Just as I am currently hoping that the medical school doesn't cave to the GQP mob and cancel her.

I have a difficult time believing that you would be on the side of the patient in your reversed hypothetical. More likely you would be ranting in the Daily Wire comment section about how the patient was a snowflake.

I think the pronoun pin is dumb. Don't support pronoun pins, email signatures, etc. I don't think this medical student deserves to have her life ruined over a tweet.

Well, I don’t think a pronoun pin is dumb (I can see the purpose) but I also don’t believe you that if the scenario was reversed you (and her other supporters on this thread) wouldn’t be calling for her immediate expulsion. Do you honestly think the PP who keeps calling people names and told someone else to die in a ditch would be measured and calm in that situation? They’d be acting worse than the Republicans calling for expulsion now are — at least the Republicans are not issuing the poor girl death threats, they just want her expelled. If the scenario was the opposite, she would be receiving death threats from a subset of transactivists as they have a long and widely known history of sending death and rape threats to women they disagree with.

She does not deserve to be expelled. Full-stop.

But you know perfectly well that if the scenario was reversed, the same people defending this doctor would be calling for immediate expulsion and worse.

Over a dumb tweet?

Or over a dumb tweet plus being anti-trans?

Not quite the same situation in reverse.

1. UVA is not a "regional" university. It is Virginia's flagship university and #25 in public universities in the US. A regional public university in Virginia would be somewhere like ODU (Hampton Roads) or Longwood (central VA).

2. This is the second or third time you've said southern Virginia in reference to UVA. Not sure why, as Charlottesville is nowhere near southern VA.

3. Wake Forest is a private university and not affiliated with the state of North Carolina other than the fact that it's located within NC's jurisdiction.

I made the mistake of reading to see what some people on a conservative subreddit thought and someone actually said "SHE STUCK A PATIENT WITH A NEEDLE SHE SHOULD BE SUED FOR ASSAULT" Lmfao.

Here we get to the heart of the matter: you believe maltreatment of certain protected classes is totally fine, so you won’t admit the scenario in reverse is exactly the same just with a different protected class as the issue at hand.

We all know that if the scenario was reversed, the student in question would be receiving copious death and rape threats from the transactivist crowd, as well as calls for expulsion. Your post above just about admits that.

It is unfortunate this is being politicized and that people speaking their opinions are being attacked.

Her behavior needs to be addressed - it was clearly unprofessional,immature, and not compassionate and not what you expect from future health care professionals. But it would be extreme to expel her for this single incident. If there is a recurrent pattern of behavior suggesting she lacks the compassion and empathy needed to be a future physician, then this might call for a more extreme action.

She needs to receive some additional training on what constitutes professional behavior and she needs to be monitored to see that she complies. Training on how to use social media, training on how to ensure your personal feelings and attitudes do not impact on professional behaviors. This would be the most appropriate consequence, not expulsion. The school should also look at their processes for selecting students for admission - maybe they need additional screening procedures going forward.

We don’t know (properly) but it is very likely that there is at least one (religion, disability, age, etc.) if not more. Someone in the hospital is much more likely to belong to a protected class, and so it’s highly likely the patient is a protected class member.

Ah, so you admit that it is 100% correct that in a reverse scenario you would calling for expulsion, and probably death and rape. Sounds about correct.
