"Medical education and labor practices produce adversarial patient-provider relationships that the medical industry prof i ts from. Medical school is extremely expensive, and scholarships are limited to those who excel academically. Weeding out many of the poorest applicants makes it so that even potential doctors are primarily wealthy and white. Student loans function as an additional means of control: the threat of fi nancial ruin without lucrative employment motivates even young and otherwise progressive practitioners to stay in line and not take risks on behalf of patients.

Both medical and nursing programs are extremely rigorous, forcing students to ignore their own physical and emotional needs—this lays the groundwork for a “tough it out” culture in the medical workplace, which is then transferred to a lack of empathy in patient care. It also prevents most disabledpeople (who may have lived experiences that cause them to be more empathetic and thus potentially more willing to bend or break rules) from making it through school.

Finally, the monotonous, assembly-line-style function of hospitals and practices reduces people to patients, and patients to a set of standard tests and procedures—a stack of paperwork to complete. Any suffering human being whose needs fall outside the limited, profit-driven procedural dictated by insurance companies and hospital administration becomes a jam in the system, an irritating problem that keeps the medical staff from being able to get on with their day. Medical professionals are drafted from (primarily) perspective-limited backgrounds and then traumatized, overworked, threatened with personal fi nancial consequences for not performing, and encouraged to blame patients with unique needs rather than the system at fault. They are positioned to be extremely defensive of their time, intellect, and strength of character, and then pitted against patients who are forced to place demands on their limited time and empathetic capacity to receive adequate care. The system gives them an out—an easy answer that isn’t true, that they probably don’t even believe, but that is within reach: medicine is empirical, so if a patient has a condition or set of needs that contradicts the assembly line, they’re the problem.

Which begs the question: Why should we allow medical professionals so much responsibility over our wellness?"

(From an anarchist free herbal)

honestly kind of maddening that the jokes about shitty nurses still rely on invoking the ontologically evil mean girl who is just attracted to nursing for reasons of intrinsic personal badness, when what's actually happening is that pretty much any situation in which one person is in a position of structural power over another, and assumed to be more credible or reliable by dint of professional or social capital, is conducive to creating and enabling patterns of abuse

How Avatar glorifies erasing disability

Avatar (2009) ends with Jake transferring his consciousness to his Avatar body, ultimately erasing disability in this society and planet. Angry Hippie  emphasizes the ability to move consciousness is a profound question and says, "While many thought they were being clever by dissecting this movie to exploit  its' flaws, they were merely peeling the first layer of the onion." (AVATAR: In-Depth Analysis) 

In my opinion, there are layers of ableism that Angry Hippie missed. His favorite scene is when Jake (who has paraplegia) runs for the first time in his Avatar body. This scene I dislike the most falls into tropes of disabled people wanting to be "fixed" or "better." I cannot speak to how it feels to become disabled later in life, as Jake was. But I can say that these ableist messages portraying disabled people as weak and valuable only as inspiration are not helpful for anyone, disabled or not. 

Internal ableism comes from society. Angry Hippie points out that Jake running as a person with paraplegia is only surface level. This I agree with, but he goes  on to say, "it was a brilliant way to build an emotional connection to the  audiences" and "on a deeper level, however, the visual representation of Jake, a  crippled man, is a reflection of the state of the human race."  (AVATAR: In-Depth Analysis) 

In my opinion, the word "crippled" is somewhat offensive, but others have reclaimed it. The comments here demonstrate ableism because he's saying that Jake running is inspirational or at least emotional for the audience. Inspiration is what disabled characters are usually meant to convey on screen. My first impression of the film was that the disabled representation was adequate because the film did not revolve around disability. 

That is a double-edged sword highlighting the line between erasing disability and presenting a fully realized character that happens to have a disability.
