Their high-vis gear is reflecting too much light, I can't see their signs! Everyone has ear protection on, I can't hear their voices!! Oh, the irony!! --- <as per their Telegram post> - the immediate removal of emergency state powers, - an immediate end to lockdown - an end to mask and vaccine mandates - the resignation of Premier Daniel Andrews and chief health officer Brett Sutton - a royal commission into the government's pandemic response - charges against police for "assaulting peaceful protesters" - a resumption of all construction sites - and "mass distribution of ivermectin, vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc". Sounds like a episode of Ally McBeal, West Wing and House mashed together

Okay, I get the ivermectin but why the vitamin c, d, and zinc?

Classic response to "Ok, these people are not buying it, let's add something they'll accept then we can drag them in". Something of an "Appeal to reason" addition to a shithouse argument, usually used by these types in their one-no-one manipulation.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Okay, I get the ivermectin but why the vitamin c, d, and zinc? My understanding is that they're all things recommended for a 'healthy and natural' immune system boost. You can usually get some kind of combo tablet from a pharmacy. After doing some reading, vitamin D3 can supposedly help reduce symptoms of respiratory illness, but is meant to be produced by the human body on its own when the skin is exposed to UVB radiation in sunlight (it also helps calcium absorption, so might also be advertised on its own for helping to improve bone density or dental health). It might be more useful for people who spend all their time indoors, or who live in places that are constantly dark and cloudy. Since these kinds of tablets are already so widely available, it just makes the argument for needing ivermectin weaker IMO. Tell them to go and get their cold and flu immune response tablets. https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/91181/nature-s-way-immune-support-100-tablets quote:Ingredients TheMostFrench fucked around with this message at 10:25 on Sep 21, 2021 |

So I guess they don't actually trust their immune system that much?

Vit C, d, zinc and iodine is pushed by health grifters in supplements as it's an unregulated market, so you have dudes like Alex Jones who are telling you to take ivermectin and his supplements that'll boost your immune system. It's the cash part of the grift. You'll also see collodiol silver.

Apparently there were some Trump flags spotted at today's protest, and on a hunch I went and googled whether anyone had ever made any Australian versions of the US Gadsden flag gently caress me that's cringeworthy, I should have known better than to go looking Neddy Seagoon posted:Okay, I get the ivermectin but why the vitamin c, d, and zinc? There's lots and lots of anti-vaxxers who are pushing ivermectin & vitamins as a covid cure, you see pretty much that exact list plus or minus a few others come up a lot in anti-vaxx screeds

Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:Anyone got any updates on the #FakeTradies? This youtube guy did a good breakdown of the lead-up to the riots: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxfYums6B2Q tl;dr: roughly 1/3 of the rioters on Monday were construction unionists, 1/3 were non-union construction workers and 1/3 were anti-vaxx/neo-nazi agitators. The anti-vaxxers had organised the entire thing right from the start and convinced the unionists to turn up and they were also behind earlier protests with the aged care and nursing home industries. Also a friend of mine who'd been working at one of the big vaxx hubs in Melbourne reports that there's been a huge number of tradies turning up for their jabs recently, the squeaky wheels that are rampaging down city streets are only a loud dumb minority Snowglobe of Doom fucked around with this message at 08:35 on Sep 22, 2021 |

Yeah, there were some (but not many) legit union workers who got roped into it yesterday. But the CFMEU said anyone caught going today would be banned from union worksites in the future (aka fired) so the crowd today had basically zero hivis wearing people and there were a lot less people involved, probably 150 when they walked past me down collins st at noon. People were cheering from balconies as the cops caught people trying to run away, so there is no popular support for antivaxxers parading around the place and loving everything up for everybody else. https://twitter.com/CorbinMiddlemas/status/1440576463535677450 Nobody likes these fuckwits https://twitter.com/BrentHodgson/status/1440586199807107073 drunkill fucked around with this message at 11:58 on Sep 22, 2021 |

^^^^ Yep, this basically. No one likes these fuckers. Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:this is what I've heard yeah. I can only imagine the CFMEU sending reps out to every work site to law down the loving law on actual tradies turning up to any more protests. God, they must have been loving pissed after the aggro bullshit at their offices.

If you take vitamin C beyond a certain point, you just get diarrhea. I don't see the need to discourage it's use.
