I owe readers an explanation for my silence on the case of John and Kimberly Boger. The pause wasn’t to step back — it was to gather more evidence. And they’ve provided plenty. Evidence so extensive, so damning, that it defies ordinary comprehension.
What began as something small has revealed itself as a chilling pattern of patient abuse and institutional betrayal — a story that will unsettle anyone who encounters it.
…
The actions taken by individuals across multiple institutions—over more than a year—to suppress, discredit, isolate, and financially devastate a disabled patient and his advocate should disturb every one of us. Their only “crime” was seeking the basic standard of care — not just what any of us would expect, but what we are theoretically guaranteed under government healthcare regulation. What they received instead was retaliation, constant scrutiny, intimidation, harassment and abandonment.

Not to belittle this individuals story.. but it is merely a fractal of our broken (passed tense) society.
People don’t realize it yet (maybe starting to), I could wax poetic for pages… The Great Enshittening is upon us and in full force.
Remember a couple years ago those werdo ‘prepper’ people on the internet told everyone to get their medical care up to date, perform any minor/major surgeries needed NOW, don’t wait? “Go to the dentist, get that tooth fixed.”
Some of us knew.
Here’s another hint: its gonna get worse!
We’re passed the tipping point. Your best bet now is to buy that home apothecary book you see advertised on fecesb0rg and start ID’ing plants in your AO.
This medical scenario is not uncommon. My granddaughter is a charge nurse in ER and tells similar stories, particularly about covid care during that reign of terror. My wife went thru similar experiences at our “première” hospital in Northeast Georgia, except she only survived 12 days after discharge. Hospitals are now a place to go to to die. Learn how to stay out of hospitals or allopathic medical care in general.
