Bridget sits down with Dr. Sally Satel for a conversation about political correctness in medicine and what it's doing to doctors and patient care. They discuss the premise that a doctor of a different race can't understand you, what it means in medicine when every difference in outcome is inevitably attributed to systemic racism, how implicit bias does not translate into how people interact with each other, and how political correctness as an orthodoxy is intended to maintain a victim status. They cover the opioid crisis, addiction, recovery, how it's a miracle anyone ever gets sober, categorizing addiction as a disease, focusing on stupid cosmetic stuff in the face of overwhelming problems, why addict patients must take an active role in their own care and recovery, and what information and knowledge is being displaced by CRT training in medical schools.
