Show Me Where It Hurts
I have been building and moderating conversation on the internet since the internet had conversation worth moderating, and one quarrel from those years has never let me put it down. It happened on Reddit, in one of the medical-advice communities, the ask-a-doctor kind, and the room's name has dissolved from memory while its images have refused to leave. People arrived with photographs of their own fresh cuts and posted them for assessment, and the moderators split over what they were looking at. One camp called the pictures fine in a medical setting: a patient presenting an injury to doctors, the oldest transaction in medicine arriving through a new door. The other camp read performance, attention pursued through injury, and wanted every image gone. I stood with the second camp's verdict while distrusting its reasoning, because the deletion seemed right to me for a reason neither camp was saying: whatever any single poster intended, the gallery was awe-inspiring to the wrong eyes. I could not have defended that instinct with numbers then, and now I can, so here is the argument laid out in full, the folk theory measured, the audience counted, the room itself put on the scale.

Rêveur: ensuite, je me suis gentiment fait mordre par un chat (même pas, il a viteuf gnack le tissu, j’ai rien du tout) et maintenant j’ai peur d’avoir la rage parce que je suis débile 😔
Rêveur: Pouvez me rassurer svp ?
Rêveur: c’est un chat avec un collier qui a l’air bien traité et tout + il m’a même pas vraiment mordu donc je pense pas avoir quoi que ce soit mais je flippe quand même :’)
Johnnybegood: même avec un animal sauvage, la rage est ultra rare car très bien contrôlé chez nous
Rêveur: ok yess merci. Mais je le sais juste ça me terrifie tellement
Rêveur: T’sais quoi je vais noter pour en parler au psy “peur de mourir d’une manière horrible”
JMDO: Dis toi que j’ai été mordu par un rat et que je suis toujours vivant … alors un chat
Magus: Je me suis fait mordre des dizaines et des dizaines de fois par des rats et des chats. Mais bon c’était les miens
Magus: Après, les premiers symptômes de la rage c’est d’être paranoïaque d’avoir la rage
CherryWingNLR: Ou d’avoir la rage de t’être fait mordre
CherryWingNLR: D’ailleurs, il paraît que les jeux en lignes genre LoL, Overwatch, CS ou encore Fortnite peuvent te donner la rage
eska: ça explique beaucoup de choses … -
Here's a picture I took today of my main doctor in full Contagion gear. He's seen every Covid patient on the mountain where I live for the past 4 years. He said he only got Covid once and it was from a cruise. The irony is that he's willing to wear this at the office but not on the ship. 🛳️
