Okay. I’ll leave those patient support groups because you told me to cut contact with people using corpo media. You might not be interested in boring reasons people do what they do but that’s why common people don’t believe in honesty when you tell them you have their best interest at heart. This suggests that you only care about what’s good for people superficially and people can smell that a mile away, hence current popularity of liberal left.

Unlike yourself, I cultivated relationships with those kind of people outside Facebook, got their phone numbers, and am able to be part of a support network for them without needing to use Facebook.

but keep making excuses for yourself.

Unlike you people I have to connect with people with a rare disease and I don’t have a choice. Ride that high horse cowboy, it feels good for a time.

Buddy I'm literally living with cancer. Check my post history, I'm not shy about mentioning it, it's Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. The most stressful part of it is living in the US and running the risk of losing access to a medication that costs $18k a month. It may not be rare but that doesn't make it any less of a bitch to live with.

There's literally a good chance that if Trump is successful in repealing the ACA, that I won't be able to come up with a way to afford it, and I will die a horrifically painful and totally preventable death within the next year of it being repealed.

I'm part of several support groups, none of which use Meta services to connect.

Keep on making excuses for yourself man.
