I’m saying that when someone refers to themselves as a doctor, we expect medical knowledge. Referring to oneself as a doctor with a PhD in communications is technically correct but misleading. The exact thing she’s accusing.
Here it is in joke form, topically from a current shitpost
You know Drs as PhDs (starting in the 14th century) predates it’s usage as a medical practitioner (19th century). Every PhD still calls themselves Drs.
It’s not manipulation if it’s your own ignorance that causes the misunderstanding.
