> Patients vs. the health establishment. Us vs. them.

Well, yeah; that's the point of the article. That doctors are publicly displaying this attitude on social media, and it's becoming more and more normalized.

I've seen it. I've been victim to it. It's a real thing, causing real harm, and it's not talked about enough.

There are systemic reasons for this, which are worth addressing and exploring, but don't need to be addressed in every article that touches on the subject.

> this article is just trying to fuel hatred.

I don't think that's a fair assessment. This is a real and widespread culture problem. You can see it for yourself, if you choose to.

Casting doubt that this problem exists, while smearing (sourced and verified) pieces that address it as a "hit piece", is just sweeping a big problem under a very squishy rug.
