“Before passing away” more like before being very very obviously murdered
Can you tell me why you say that? I have no idea who Nong Kwan was and am genuinely interested in hearing why you think they were murdered
All the cameras in the clinic just so happened to be turned to the wall and the servers storing the footage just so happened to not be working at that time. There was also a 3 hour delay between her condition “deteriorating” and the clinic calling for an ambulance. If not murder then medical malpractice definitely.
FWIW I hadn’t heard of her before now, but based on what’s in the article, I know what I’m putting my stock in.
Yeah, that’s reasonable. My thought was that there are a lot of nefarious purposes for the camera to be turned to the wall, and for there to be no server.
Dodgy clinic, dodgy practices, more concerned with generating income than interest in their patients. Is it more likely that they murdered her, or are a really shitty place where your life is at risk if you walk in the door?
Is it likely that we only heard about Nong Kwang dieing because of her following, and she’s not the first?
Don’t get me wrong, dieing of what would be extreme capitalism is murder, just as much as someone actively killing her
Yeah, don’t think the semantics matter all that much. I’d consider medical malpractice to be murder personally which is why I originally referred to it as such.
malpractice is way broader than that. i remember there was a guy who was scarifying his initials onto his surgery patients. stuff that's unprofessional and violating but not going to kill anyone. on the lighter end people get sewn up with forceps or sponges left inside their bodies by mistake, but processes should be in place to prevent that.
since a minority is the victim here i'm automatically more suspicious of malicious intent, of course.
I consider medical malpractice to be murder if it causes death, to be more exact.
It is guaranteed that that is the case
Holy fuck that website is ad-infested cancer. Please use an archive site.
They are all dead no? Or at least heavily blocked.
I think it's better to post the canonical link. Maybe put a archive link or the full article text in a spoiler in the post description.

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:
The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.
-
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
-
Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.
-
Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.
-
Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.
-
Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.
-
Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.
-
American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.
-
Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.
