M4 medfluencer at Mayo Clinic expelled
Background: nick baumel, m4 at mayo had like 500k followers on insta, expelled by mayo for misogynistic content. What do yall think? I’m honestly siding w/ mayo, some comments defending him are lowk absurd.
“It was a joke, many thought it was funny!” yea, and many thought it was offensive. Docs shouldn't be making public jokes that offend anyone.
“People needa toughen up.” You shouldnt be a doc.
“The outrage from other medfluencers were only for clout” ok, ignore all the non-influencers audience that were offended by him.
“Its healthcare! People have said worse!” Yea and no one posted on social media for millions to see lol
“Mayo reaction is overblown!” Tbh its the safest action. The public outrage for thinking mayo hasnt done enough to punish misogyny is much worse than public outrage for thinking mayo takes it too seriously. Plus theyre known to be #1 hospital so more pressure there.
“Ik people who done worse at other schools and the school didn’t do anything!” Silly argument, inaction at other schools shouldnt mean inaction at mayo.
“He didnt have a chance to apologize!” Expulsion is a VERY involved process, he wasnt just kicked out outta the blue. Also he doubled down and posted another controversial post after first one got called out. He had chances.
