Why can't the current president get aggressive cancer? Everyone would love that (although I would pity the cancer).

Countdown to Trump saying something deplorable. 10...9...8...

fuck, i prayed for this but it hit the wrong president

Since this is an opportunity to educate people about health, I will not discuss politics here. :)

• If you're a guy, your urinary tract is stupidly complicated from a medical viewpoint and there's a prostate beneath the bladder which hydrogenates testosterone (T is produced by the brain) into dihydrotestosterone, produces fluid to mix the seminal fluid with, and generally supports fertility and gender specific phenotype.

• With progressing age, the prostate enlarges, gets infected with HPV (nearly everyone gets it) and may get bacterial infections (typical ones are E. coli). It may also develop calcinations.

• Risk is reduced if you live in Asia and eat a traditional menu containing much soy bean products which enables guys in those regions to enjoy several times less prostate cancer.

• Risk is increased with nearly every urinary tract infection, especially if not conclusively diagnosed and treated.

• After the age of 40, regularly have PSA (prostate specific antigen) measured from a blood test. It tells how much disintegration and immune reaction is occurring down there.

• Regularly have ultrasound check-ups done. If there are UTI symptoms, treatment must not occur blindly, but must be followed by observation.

• If you are young and your home country has medical insurance that covers HPV vaccination, get it while it's free (because it costs 150 € a dose). If you're rich enough, there may be a point in getting it later too, especially if you've not had unsafe sex (it doesn't protect after infection). The majority of people get HPV during their lives and approximately 9 strains cause cervical cancer in women and raise the risk of prostate cancer in men. By getting vaccinated against HPV, you protect both yourself and your partners from drawing a ticket in a quite nasty lottery.

• As long as prostate cancer is androgen dependent, it can be suppressed with an androgen blockade.

It should have happened to Trump. Not that Biden is a good guy, but it would be nice if Trump died of an ass related illness.

metastasis to the bone

Yeah, he's not making it.

Thank goodness he lives in a country where the cancer hospitals haven't been bombed out of existence with weapons funded by the United States under the leadership of Joe Biden.

What are these comments? You people are vile.

Wishing him all the best. I have seen quite a few men die to that disease (no one dies of prostate cancer but it spreads really fast and to really bad places).

Good luck Biden.

Stage 4 cancer with metastasis? Not gonna make it. No amount of money or power can stop a dead man walking.

But it does make ya wonder why he wanted to run for a second term. He probably won't make it to the end of the current administration.

He won't live long enough to see the major impact of slow rolling Trump's arrest.

I wish cancer got the other guy, but I feel no sympathy for an old racist who betrayed various words and didn't fight back against the fascist hard enough.

This comment section shows that even on decentralized, less mainstream platforms there's a lot of people behaving similarly to what would be called bots on Reddit. Come on, guys, we can do better than this.

We can acknowledge Joe Biden's crimes and failures without cheering his sickness and wishing him a painful death. Same with Donald Trump and all the other scummy politicians.

We can also disagree about various policies, issues or parties while treating each other with respect and an open mind, instead of degrading all discussion to 'communism vs capitalism' or 'democracy vs fascism' arguments.

I know it can be difficult to remain civil towards government officials who are essentially criminals, and anyone who supports or seems to support them in any capacity. However, I personally think we should try.

I wish him ease of his suffering in direct proportion to how much he eased innocent Palestinians suffering. Seems only fair.

It's going to be interesting to see how Trump will handle that state funeral

With all the best doctors the presidents have, they discover it only at the fourth stage?

I'm a lowly peasant and my work let me do a yearly blood+pee test, I assumed that for presidents it would be something like a weekly checkup

This is why after 60, I’m not going to try to be president. I’m retiring. Guy spent the last few good years he had stressed out running the country when he should’ve been playing bingo and sitting on a beach.

I wish Joe well. Terrible thing to have to deal with.

Kinda wish this happened on like January 1, 2024, we might've had an open Democratic Primary and potentially averted fascism.

I always love the cognitive dissonance people have seeing others hope that a man directly responsible for a metric ton of civilian deaths, succumbing to a painful death, is not ethically correct.

I mean people seem to have zero issue with United Healthcare. Exorbitant Healthcare costs is the equivalent of death, but literally bombing hospitals and refugee camps isn't?

Not to mention that he'll be receiving the latest and greatest in medical aid anyway, so there's a fair chance he'll survive. A lot of geriatric asshat world leaders contracted covid and still lived.

I can't even tell if this is DNC shilling because several people have implied they would treat Trump the same. Wth kind of moral compass are yall following lol?

This is sad. Taking into account of how he was treated by the DNC and how 2024 went down, this is just the shit cherry on the shit sundae.

Lucky for him he’ll get the best medical treatment on the planet. Meanwhile if I broke a leg I’d be destitute

God, thats fucking terrible. We put him through the riger the last couple years & now this? This is the worst timeline.

This guy wanted another term this time last year.

[Edit] Oh, and some of you all thought it was a good idea. Lol.

Biden has cancer, what's Trump's excuse? 😕
