And have you ever heard of hyperbole? That is whats happening here?
The title is “facts are facts”… literally not a fact…
Yup thats the title, have you ever heard of hyperbole?
Hyperbole should be exaggerated beyond what a reasonable person thinks is possible. They shouldn’t mislead. So it’s not a hyperbole if some people might think that people in the US may be outright refused care if they are dying and don’t have insurance. Which is why I commented originally, to clarify that.
it’s not a hyperbole if some people might think that
Congratulations, you just defined hyperbole as non-existing, since for every proposition you can find someone who believes it.
Just accept that you didn’t get the joke and move on.
My issue issue is about how the title ‘facts are facts’ might mislead, especially on a topic like healthcare, which is already confusing for a lot of people.
Why not ditch the title, and use slides like:
- Slide 1: “Please help me, I’m dying!”
- Slide 2: “Of course, but first can you verify your billing address?”

You think a hospital would ask for insurance from a dying patient?
if it was allowed to be done legally many American hospitals would absolutely do it.
I think the meme could give that impression to someone unfamiliar with U.S. healthcare, yes.
You really edited 2 of your comments? You know it takes 4 clicks to view them with google time machine?
Ain’t you sad mate?
I don’t know what you are talking about 🤣
A USAian not hearing about hyperbole would be too ironic 🤣
