Is there some correlation I'm not familiar with? I haven't paid attention to any of my dentists' politics, I just want them to prevent tooth decay, but is that a thing? It's not like cops or ICE where you HAVE to be an evil bastard to join or remain a dentist.

    i associate dentists with the petit bourgeois who spend their weekends riding triathlon bikes and complaining about the homeless or grafitti or other conservative beliefs that are acceptable to economically-established libs

    Its not really that all dentists are CHUDs, but a lot of dentists own their own practice, and thus their class interest is more aligned with the petty bourgeosis. Also, a lot of them seem to believe very strongly in the "selfmade man" bullshit, which tends to align them more with the CHUD parts.

    I feel like I've woken up in a parallel universe where the only thing that's different is chapos calling dentists chuds. I have literally never seen this before. I like my dentist, he's really nice

      Uhhhh, I'm just gonna call the Volcel Police now.

      Everyone knows you're only supposed to enjoy the nitrous at the dentist's office, not the dentist!

        Your dentist doesn't shove your head right into their crotch before checking your teeth?

            I'm pretty sure my dentist is licensed, but it's the first time one of them has lowered the seat damn-near into their crotch.

    They're glorified teeth carpenters, all they can do is drill out your teeth fill them up with plastics or precious metals. On top of it all they nag on you every-time you visit, and charge obscene rates for even the most minor operation. And for some reason most countries make it a privatised service not covered by healthcare costs even though theres a definite link between dental health and mental health.

    I mean you have people who had to funnel down to a secondary prestige position (from MD) and make a shit ton of money doing routine work. But I have never seen this chud comparison lol

    My dentist is a really faithful Jewish guy who's super honest, donates a lot of his time to doing dental work for those who can't afford it, and bends over backwards making sure paying him isn't an unreasonable burden.

      They’re like the psychic mediums of medicine. My work actually covers chiropractic as part of my benefits, but I’d rather they just give me more massage coverage.

    I had emergency dental surgery in Australia while visiting family. (East Gippsland, maybe some Aussie comrades can explain it) My dentist was nice until during one of our sessions he asked about what a fuck up Obama was. I, as a liberal, told him Tony Abbott was a Tea Party loving wank. He told me I should stop talking about politics.

      I, as a liberal

      Bold of you to admit that here.

      Than again, everyone here (except me, of course) is a :LIB:.
