It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.

oh that makes sense, anything that the scientific community debunks gets immediately embraced by conspiracy theorists as part of their "if it works it would cure everyone and they couldn't keep making money selling it" shtick

its explicitly this

while ignoring that you can charge a stupid amount of money for "cures" because it means you can amortize the cost against the entire lifetime of insurance care for said treatment.

Fox News has mentioned it several times this year, on Hannity and Tucker and their prime time show.

the original "paper" was a fraud to scam people into buying a specific product.

it's been going for a while, i want to say around the start of the new year. there were real doctors that were really into it until the wheels fell off all the science. dr. drew pinsky was really into it and ultimately had his youtube channel shut down for a few days over it lol. dr john campbell was sadly big into it until the science definitively fell short

I know the Chud doctor Robert Malone (Inventor of mRNA!) also endorsed it which help whip the Chuds into a fury as being a better alternative to getting vaccinated.

I'm curious about the specificity of this poo poo too. Like why ivermectin specifically? The answer is probably "cause they're dumb" but you do still wonder the origin

Here's a handy paper that researches the origins of ivermectin's popularity as a covid treatment it was Australians that started it in April 2020 LOL enjoy your horsepaste everyone, love from downunder!! :wave:

Another one of my friends was saying they're restless and they want to go to the adhoc burning man this year. The planning groups had a split over if covid exists or not. The restless comment came after I said it would be stupid to go.

I know the various Chud co-workers at my company love citing Dr Robert Malone

Even though :
-He endorsed the Horse paste dewormers as a valid treatment for COV19 / Worth Checking out!
-Claimed spike proteins produced by mRNA vaccines would flood the body with dangerous cytotoxins which was easily disproved with basic science

Johnson & Johnson also said Wednesday studies show a booster dose of its vaccine offered a ninefold increase in antibodies compared with the vaccine on its own.

The company said it was working with federal officials, including the FDA and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, on next steps to boost the effects of the vaccine and ready a possible booster shot.

Yeah plus as shown by places that did crack down with vaccine mandates, most people whined but didn't quit.

Plus I'm sure their coworkers were relieved to hear less Alex Jones style conspiracy theory ranting each day at work.
