look at the down votes you're getting for sharing the same viewpoint that luigi holds and consider how wildly popular this sort of opinion is with both the left and the right.
social media is not immune from the same controlled-narratives/propaganda that the mainstream media is using to discredit luigi and the people who share is views and you're seeing it in action on the "general purpose" instances on lemmy like this one.
This is not the "same viewpoint Luigi holds." The Canadian and British examples are grossly exaggerated to the point of being a bad faith argument, which leads me to suspect the US one might be as well.
Lying about the problem doesn't aid the cause; it harms it.
It's inaccurate in relation to how much a 43 month waitlist problem would cost in the US. Unless you're seeking care that has been politicized, the US costs should have a couple zeros added to be a comparable exaggeration. Costs in this country seem like they should be a joke, but shit is really that expensive.
