It really was like Satanism, what happened to medicine.
The devil came to the doctors, split tongue hissing, and told them to LIE, to hide the cure, to suppress it, to discredit it, and they did, and they sold out their own Hippocratic Oath, and as a reward, Satan, the inverter of truth, turned their great sin into their great celebrity.
The doctors were hailed as the heroes of our society. They were gifted all the jewels and virtues of the kingdom, all the attention and adoration of the world. But that is the way a deal with Satan always ends. You may get the reward, you may win the victory, but it is a hollow reward, a bitter victory. And so was this. The nurses knew it, they felt it intuitively, and in their great shame they became literal whores before our eyes, twerking for likes in the hallways of hospitals. They knew no other path, resorting to the only other thing of value they knew they had left to offer: their hole. And the doctors sat in their offices too, with nothing to do, staring at their wall of degrees, sadly jerking off.
And yet when the TV in the cafeteria goes on, CNN is once again praising them as the heroes of the day. MSNBC says the hospitals are overflowing, filled to capacity, it is like a war zone in there. But the doctors look around and see no one. No noise. No war zone. No emergency. Quite the opposite, actually - they have stopped taking patients and no one is coming in anymore. The hospital is a ghost town.
But still - even with the truth staring them in the face - the doctors won’t give up the great lie. They won’t spill the beans. Why would they? This is their deal with the devil. They are the heroes of society now, the authorities of everyone, the experts of all, the ones who decree and the saviors they always wanted to be, and all they had to do to achieve it was betray everything they ever believed in to the bottom of their soul.
