    ID residents should be banned from receiving medical care in WA.

    But I think accelerationist policies often hurt vulnerable people…

        Sure. But this is kinda just accelerationism/xenophobia, no? For example, replace “Idaho” with “Mexico” in your argument, and it gets pretty ugly pretty fast IMHO.

            I’m seeing you being slapped in the face with their point and just refusing to acknowledge it. Cringe AF.

                There is no context that provides for bad faith exchanges. And I don’t engage with bad faith actors other than to call them out. If you want respect and well reasoned engagement you have to provide the same or else people will ignore you, like I am going to do, or block you, which only exacerbates your echo chamber. Best of luck, Citizen.

                  lol. I was asking them because if they didn’t, I would explain why people from Idaho are a drain on Spokane’s healthcare. Instead, they ran away. Hilarious.

                    My friend, that was already explained in this thread. I think people just generally have a problem with denying people medical care for any reason.

        And what, die? I think keeping people alive and preventing unnecessary deaths should be the priority first and foremost. Idaho should be made to improve their healthcare infrastructure, and then we can force them to stay in their state.

        But as of right now, the idea of turning someone down at the hospital because their ID says a different state does not sit well with me.
