“TREATMENT”
APR 24, 2024
As we all know, medical honchos do everything they can to use language that sounds important.
They need to impress the public.
I’m not talking about dense and complex technical terms. They are PLENTY of those.
I picked out the word “treatment.” I asked ChatGPT to supply words and phrases doctors use to stand in for it.
Boom.
Take a gander at this list:
Protocol Course of treatment Therapy Regimen Plan of care Intervention Procedure Management Care plan Medical regimen Medical care Treatment plan Medical protocol Healthcare regimen Medical procedure Medication regimen Medical therapy Clinical regimen Medical intervention Healthcare protocol Medical management Patient care plan Healthcare plan Medical approach Healthcare regimen Medical scheme Healthcare strategy Medical course Medical method Healthcare approach
Quite something, eh?
Sounds a lot better than, “We gave the guy drugs.”

I thought about it and came up with a few of my own inventions:
LINKED STEP APPLICATION. That means, “We gave the guy drugs and he ended up in the hospital.”
FINALITY PROTOCOL. Same as the one above, except the patient ends up in the cemetery.
LEVERAGED OPTION. This means, “The drug company gave us perks to prescribe their drug.” Or, “The government paid us to inject a vaccine.”
STUDY POPULATION ENHANCEMENT. “We’d never used this type of treatment before, so we slammed hundreds of millions of people with it, to see what would happen. And when the results were catastrophic, we covered up that fact.”
REVERSE STRATEGY. “The clinical trial of the drug was a toxic disaster, so we lied about the results and marketed the drug anyway.”
HEROIC INTERVENTION. “The drug was developed from a dangerous poison, so we claimed there were many people whose illness was so dire we had to try the drug.”
REGULATORY PROTOCOL. “We paid off the FDA to approve the drug when we knew it was ineffective and quite dangerous.”
EDUCATION BASED TREATMENT OPTION. “We ran a TV ad for our drug 100000000000 times, with the end-tag, “Ask your doctor if [the drug] is right for you.” Hundreds of thousands of people immediately saw their doctors and told them they wanted the drug.
LAYERED MEDICAL STRATEGY. Give drug A, cause serious adverse effects B and C and D. Diagnose those effects as a new disease and give drug E, which causes another set of injurious effects and diagnose them as another disease and prescribe another toxic drug, and so on.
I may need to create my own AI Chat bot which features these and MANY other euphemistic synonyms.
Think of the potential options, when you expand the application to fields like crime, open borders, transgenderism, censorship, war, politics, organized religion…
Every cause now seems to have a celebratory month of its own.
So…BULLSHIT SYNONYM MONTH.
A parade down Pennsylvania Avenue.
