I have to believe it was more than a single letter and she may have said somethings to the staff.

The USA does not have universal care. They can turn you down because you can't pay your bill or can't afford treatment, I guess they can pick and choose their patients on any grounds.

I still don't think its right but when has right ever factored into half the stuff?

Do you mind reposting what was brought up? I can't see it.

to wit, fascistbook and its use of 'community standards' to silence those who disagree

Okay, thanks!

So looking into it beyond a short on youtube I found this.


A typical "more to the story" and it explains why the woman might have had care refused.

Considering the place she was at is a center for GLBTQIA+ care and their patient statment says: "..... patient guidelines state that patients shall refrain from “using discriminatory, profane, derogatory or threatening language, imagery or behavior, and understand that these behaviors can result in limitation of visiting privileges and impact access to care at OHSU.”"

That this woman compared the trans flag to a Nazi one certainly falls under discriminatory and derogatory language.

Her outing what happened on social media has also led to people threatening the care center with bomb threats, which doesn't just affect her anymore, but anyone else there too.

Also found this as well.


And I gotta ask if this woman has such an issue with GLBTQIA+ people, then WHY is she going to a place that is known for their gender-affirming care? Could she not get her breast cancer care somewhere else? But then this is the US, where they're NOT free to just go anywhere they want for care...

Back to the point: nah, she wasn't denied care because of her belief per say, rather because she broke with the guidelines for the patients who attend the center, and in the end, she was just a rude fucking bitch that other patients and staff should not have to deal with.

And working in that kind of environment myself, the staff were right here in what they did. And "her side" is likely not exactly the truth anyway, because my experience with such things, a lot of the times patients and families blow things out of proportion, or worse, whether it's because of stress, pain, or just because they're assholes wanting to start shit.

Uhhhhh huh. She can't find things offensive unless the Alphabet Nazis approve its offensive? Is it necessary to fly the flag if it offends? What's does oncology have to do with gender butchering? Maybe she was raped by a lesbian and the flag is traumatic?

Scream at another Catholic hospital or Dr that denies abortions as Nazi.

Oh, for the anti-trans folks... question.

Explain to me please, how if the thing about banning trans women from women's sports is because they "Are men" and thus are at an advantage due to strength, body size, etc...

What's the reason to ban trans women from CHESS?


Pretty sure this is proof that the whole "ban of trans women" isn't about women at all, but rather about misogyny and fear in general...

Oh, just learned this today...


Damn... those weak women (or one badass woman) needed a division all on their own, obviously!

Or maybe it was the jealous, pussified men?

Ya, all this "Concern" about "protect women's sports!" is just BS.

Does someone have to be “Anti-Trans” to be against men in woman’s sports?

(I don’t see where Chess is even relevant, as it’s in a different camp that physical competition or combat sports)

I don’t think I’m “Anti-Trans” but someone else might see me that way I guess, but I don’t think men competing against women in a woman’s sport is fair to the women in that sport. I’m not sure if that opinion qualifies as pussified for having that opinion, but again, that’s just my opinion.

Oh, I don't know. Watching men compete in women's gymnastics is a laugh a minute!

Kudos to Madge Syers who competed in an a men’s skating event 120 years ago and got a Silver Metal. Good on her! Seriously!

Madge wasn’t in a Speed Skating event where limb length and outright explosive physical strength would have been a monstrous advantage….but it’s a huge accomplishment on her part!!!

That’s a big difference from 1902 and powerlifter Anne Andres in 2023 (this month). Anne beat every woman in that category in competition by something like 500lbs…& that’s the 10th timethat Andres has taken first place in a women’s powerlifting category. Anne dominates against women somehow.
Anne lost to Avi a couple months ago though, in the Woman’s powerlifting bench press though. Anne transitioned about 20 years ago long after puberty. Avi “transitioned/identified as” about 10 minutes before the competition and then “de-transitioned/identified as differently” immediately afterwards.
Is Anne Andres competing against women fair to those women? Is Avi Silverberg competing against Anne Andres and the women in that woman’s powerlifting competition fair to Anne & the women involved in that meet?
