i don't know who else to complain to about this but everydayfeminism just posted an article saying trumpcare was inevitable and we should all be focusing on 'ancestral medicine' instead, including asking our ancestors for healing and going outside more (while being careful not to culturally appropriate of course) and i'm just... honestly floored? some of the stuff that has crept into the 'mainstream sj' collective consciousness is so unbelivable i wanna die

Oh My Fucking God

The one thing all of my ancestors (with a few exceptions one generation up from me) have in common is that they’re dead.

The idea of asking permission before engaging in another culture’s healing practice is…bizarre. If you have a cure for my (hypothetical) cancer and won’t give it to me because I’m the wrong ethnicity, am I supposed to just go “okay, guess I’ll fucking die then”? Like, taking that to its logical conclusion, it is better to *die* than to appropriate a culture.

Unless the idea is that certain medical practices only work on people of certain ancestry, in which case we’re right back to some very troubling eugenic implications.
