I mean, it just goes on and on and on.
So I think that one matters doesn't mean another doesn't matter.
Are there some differences?
Yes.
Some of the people who are now being discriminated against had very privileged lives previously, whereas if you are a Black in the United States, even before you're born, we're doing harm to you as a system, you know, when you look at the birth outcomes and things like that.
So that is a little different.
At the same time, again, sort of, it doesn't mean that ageism doesn't also exist and matter.
And I actually think a system that starts looking at its isms as a whole, I mean, we basically have this health system.
I mean...
that was created by privileged men of a certain age and race in their own image.
And it has been changing a little bit, but not enough.
If you also look at the history of medicine, what you'll see is we started admitting more women to medical school classes in the 80s.
And women's health really came to the fore in the 90s.
We started adding more people of color to medical school classes in this century.
And now we've got white coats for black lives and people standing up for that.
And throughout society, it's sort of, there's a point where people get a voice.
In medicine, it's hard for older people because you're not, I mean, you'd have to be an absolute lunatic to go to medical school at 80.
Like I can't even imagine doing it
home.
Forget it, right?
