Minor drama on twitter when prominent Cardiologist makes cringy "joke" about women in cardiology.

So Dr Anish Koka, a cardiologist (not mentioning the hospital, because I don't want to be sending a mob or something) made a pretty misogynist/transphobic "joke" (in his terms) about women in cardiology.

Some of the highlights -

"5.5k upborks and counting bro. Haters gonna hate"

"I'll say it straight out then. You're a moron. You don't need to take my advice. Eventually you'll realize it yourself. Judging from how you handled these comments and this situation, in addition to the "see you in reddit" comment, you're incredibly immature and unable to handle any sort of criticism. Feel free to passive-aggressively use my wording again though. How antagonistically, and clearly worded in a way to get a rise out of someone, you responded to my comment amused me quite a bit."

"Lmfao. That's some grade-a deep philosophi
