I had to look up that quote and found the links below. I wonder if you realize you're quoting a neo-nazi busted with child porn:

I do. I found the first article and read it prior to posting the link. I'm not referring to Jewish people, but corporations and corrupt government bodies.

If you read the first article, you'll see the author is _really_ torn about whether a phrase should be attacked based on the original author.

I personally don't think the author changes the meaning behind a quote. I _do_ think the context matters. I don't see being alt-right-nazi-quadrune adjacent as a crime. I don't hold the views of the original author.

I've literally never heard one complain.

TBH, you've definitely got me there. Isn't it nice I could criticize them and have my opinion refuted without hostility?

This is inadvertently insightful since we are indeed not allowed to substantially criticize and reduce the power of the medical industry, as innocent lives are at stake if costs are moderated. Understandably, no one wants to reckon with the potential consequence of losing innocents that might’ve benefitted from an additional treatment.
