    Fair enough , but that’s not an answer to my question.

    Only non-witches get due process.

        Let’s call it the Larry Solution, though Jolly has endorsed it repeatedly. Exterminating the Palestinians in Gaza.

          Like Phibes, I have no issue with the physical annihilation of Hamas and its leadership. That would also include Salafist imams who stoke the fanatical cadres of Hamas through religious psychological corecion and bloodthirsty propaganda.

          That does not equate to the physical extermination or ethnic cleansing of Arab Palestinians. There is no moral justification for either, both are indefensible and reprehensible.

            TBH, along with deporting anybody who disagrees with the Iraq war, banning the Democrat Party, making Islam illegal, America transitioning to the metric system, and numerous other proposed solutions to problems facing us all, I typically don't take these suggestions seriously.

              First my answer, then I'll try to unpack it.

              My answer is, how they say it would be more important than what they say, and my opinion I believe would hinge on that. "Unfortunately I don't see a way towards a sustained peace without radical intervention, but I hope I'm wrong about that" would be entirely different from "LIGHT EM UP!!!!!!!" If they publicly crossed some kind of empathy and understanding threshold, yeah, I'd say unemployable.

              But you said doctors. And the profession matters here. More generally, I'm quite experienced with professionals sharing crazy shit on social media channels intended to be used in a business capacity. I work at a Renaissance Faire. I buy from and have worked for several shop owners who share their alien abduction testimonials on Facebook. They send out public reminders on forums about leaving milk out for the Brownies at the start of the season. Crazy shit just comes with the territory. (Maybe they have those professions because they were indeed rendered unemployable?) Not so much for doctors, who you rely on for their empathy, understanding and reasoning.

              But I also don't know to what extent my position would be valid. It's of course completely possible to be unempathetic towards Palestinians and still provide a sound diagnosis for seasonal allergies.

              Please love yourself.

                No doubt these physicians losing their jobs would say the same thing about their tweets of the moment.

                  Sure, some of the commentary here has been pretty nasty over the years. There's a touch of irony associated with the statement 'The Democrats are all modern-day fascists and should be lined up and shot!'

                  And then we liberals are informed that we're the haters. If I took it seriously, I'd probably have stopped posting here, as a number of others did.

                  However, I think there's a difference when the physicians are celebrating actual murders that have just occurred.

                                Serious question, I’d like all to weigh in.

                                If publicly pushing the ‘river to sea’ message should render her unemployable as she’s a threat to Jewish patients, what about a physician who advocates the Jolly solution on their social media?

                                Whoa, wait a minute. You are starting with a false premise. As far as I can tell, nobody was dismissed for promoting “From the River to the Sea”. They were dismissed for celebrating, promoting, and glorifying the murders, beheadings, rapes, and tortures of over 1200 innocent children, men, and women. They are rejoicing in the savage beheading of a grandmother, whose killers used the woman’s own phone to video the killing and then posted the video to the woman’s Facebook account and sharing it to her friends and family via messenger. They referred to this as a glorious day and a good start. That’s why they were dismissed. And quite frankly, anybody that celebrates and revels in that butchery is either insane or has no place living in a modern western liberal nation.

                                        Cancel culture swung too far in 2020 at the latest.

                                        Only non-witches get due process.

                                          Of course it did. My question is whether the swing back is too extreme.

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
