Well since this is a thread about the article, one would assume you’d be on-topic.
Also you have 0 evidence that her life is destroyed. An MRI isn’t very expensive if you’re insured, and she’s almost certainly insured, because she, ya know, got a fucking MRI.
I read the chain, and it’s 2 comments long, and that one person randomly brought up healthcare systems as a total non-sequitor.
The original comment is about her damaging the machine. It stands to reason this person thought she was on the hook for the damages, which is never discussed in the article, nor is damage confirmed.
I agree that part was a non-sequitur. I even thought so myself when I first passed over it.
But the other part of the exchange is not confusing at all and there’s zero indication that anyone thought she is actually on the hook for any damages. I’m more-so confused how you could not pick up the meaning even after a re-read.
MRI machines cost between $150,000 to $3,000,000. To me, specifically, that’s prohibitively expensive. I assume given the circumstances she’s in a significant amount of trouble, with a lethal weapon being grossly mishandled to the point of putting others lives at risk. But, to your credit, that assumption was not clearly attributed in the original post. I think the important thing here is not the disagreements we have in the comments, but the up votes we get along the way.
Where in the article does it say her life is destroyed?
where in that comment does it say anything about the article?

So what exactly was the point there?
They’re responding to a comment dude, click the context button.

“Should” being the operative word here. The top level comment using should “in auxiliary function to express obligation, propriety, or expediency.”
The next poster says that this is “not a good response” because it would destroy her life.
They are disagreeing over what should happen, not what is happening.
Right but then also this
I’m just not sure how people aren’t getting why someone might be confused by this entire exchange

Dude until your above comment I was confused as fuck.
Maybe I need more coffee.

See this comment makes vastly more sense to me.
