I thought the amazing US healthcare system didn't have waiting lists for cancer treatment if you had money, are you telling me that you can be a multimillionaire and *still* not get decent treatment?

He did get help from Trump. Trump got the Insurance company to approve some experimental treatment that they were giving him the runaround for. Ultimately, he still died, but Trump did help him. Which points at the bigger glaring issue that insurance companies will deny you healthcare unless, you *are mildly famous and on good terms with the President of the United State*

He is missing the step where you pay millions of dollars to attend a formal dinner with Trump, or buy millions worth of his shitcoin. Not that the insurer would listen to Trump, but that is how you get favors from him, he does it out in the open.

Did he not get the treatment he asked for?

He's dead? He was a fascist until the end.

Trump caring about you is pay-to-play. And had he gotten serious about treating his cancer (not ivermectin), this might not have been necessary.

He's not a good guy, and I have issues believing his version of the story. But if this is true we should be concerned. No one should die because of ineffective medical treatment and this is showing the further decline of our medical system. Although if someone is to die from inadequate medical care, I won't complain that it was him. I suppose that's the point of the community after all

He begged and pleaded for help and the party of empathy smiled at him to his grave. People suck.

It’s heartwarming to see him so desperate as the leopards circled, waiting to feast on the carrion. A skinny, dilapidated, diseased old corpse.

It was at least a decade, but he had been escalating over that time

His case really puzzled me. Like I can understand how people raised in a racist family could grow up to be racists. I don’t understand at all how people can do that at a later age. I think he alienated most of his family with his tirades too. People do other sorts of radical shifts later in life too of course. I think sometimes there are late-onset mental illnesses involved. I think the internet can be a very dangerous place for some types of people.

You're right, maybe I should have said outraged or afraid. I guess it just feels like our system is reaching that toppling point

@arrow74@lemmy.zip 2026-01-14 15:06
For fucks sake you give me the adjective you want then I don't like the way things are. They have me worried our system is on the edge of collapse. Honestly the collapse has already started. Do you prefer pissed and terrified? Does this work better: 🙃🙃🫠🫠🫠😡😡😡😡

https://www.mercurynews.com/2025/11/03/trump-scott-adams-cancer/ >After Trump’s intervention, Adams joked that “nobody in senior management at Kaiser, my health care company, had a good weekend.” He added: “I feel bad about it, but good about it — because it might have saved my life. I mean, there’s a very good chance.” > >In a statement, Kaiser Permanente, the Oakland-based managed care organization, did not specify if or how it responded to the president’s intervention, but it said, “Mr. Adams’ oncology team is working closely with him on the next steps in his cancer care, which are already underway.” Correction. I don't see any direct evidence that Trump or RFK actually *did* anything. Just them responding to the tweet was enough to get the insurance company moving.

You’re going to get this treatment or I’m going to hurt you!
