I dug into it the other day but didn't save the webpages. Basically some doctor sued the FDA for harming their ability to use Invermectin to treat COVID. FDA lawyer said they can't stop doctors from prescribing Invermectin to treat COVID. Conclusion: FDA approves Invermectin to treat COVID, they're responsible for countless deaths from COVID that could have been prevented if they hadn't made fun of it as a treatment. I think this is old news that was revived in Charlie Kirk's show because some other right wing hack claims to have used Invermectin to cure their COVID and cited this alleged change of policy.

This is another case among the many where FDA losing authority over physician prescribing practices results in innumerable deaths- one of the more straightforward ones.

Ok thanks I dug past the blue checks and found about the same. I have, of course, not found a study that ivermectin beats placebo — but they were always right I guess.

There was a study from IIRC the Philippines before we had a developed vaccine that found ivermectin improved survival over placebo, but parasites are more endemic there and ivermectin also helps treat parasites in humans. It was basically more "treating parasites with this powerful drug still results in improved survival even if the patient also has COVID". There's a certain strand of crank that thinks parasites are also endemic in the USA and you're crapping them out when you dump the caustic cleanse du jour down your gullet, instead of shedding bits of your own intestinal lining.

For parasitic infections - in human and veterinary medicine - Ivermectin is almost magically effective. There's a reason the discoverers were awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine (jointly with another discovery). It's been revolutionary in treating parasites, especially the various types of roundworms. The problem is that people take it the wrong way, in massive doses, to try and treat something it has zero effect on. Because the Internet said to. In fact the run on the stuff made it really difficult to treat actual parasite cases in both humans and livestock, because idiots bought up the supply.

Yet when a bunch of (brown) people immigrate into an area leftists welcome them even when those people commit crimes and reduce the white population.

I always assumed the implication was that the white people were too horny for non white people and that’s why they’re always on about “the future for white children.” It’s a basic acknowledgement of the idea that the demographics will change because people aren’t procreating within the races or something.

In that moment, for that specific sentence, it's useful to have the line of white people being out-bred so you need to be scared for the future of white children.

I mean, that’s literally what happened a century ago. The Great Replacement Theory existed back then as a much more public, popular idea, bolstered by self pro-claimed ‘leading scientists’ like Madison Grant and Lothrop Stoddard publishing books like “The Passing Of The Great Race” and led to the return of the KKK and massive immigration restrictions. It’s just that in the 1910s, “white” meant only “Anglo Saxon and maybe some Swedes” and they were being replaced by Italians, Poles, Jews, and all those other ‘swarthy’ and ‘Mongoloid’ races. So yeah, at some point “white” will include Latinos and they’ll be talking about the horrors of Middle Eastern and African immigrants.

Hell, before 2001 a lot of Middle Easterners were well on their way towards it and in large numbers were comfortably ensconced within the Republican coalition as it was in those days. Then something happened to change all that but I can't quite recall what. Probably something Clinton or Obama did.

They should have just made the one-drop rule about how any white ancestor instantly makes you white instead, the stupid loving crackers.

Virginia did that in 1924. One drop of anything besides white in your background and you were now legally whatever that was. Which was devastating to Virginia high society people who had proudly declared Pocahontas as a distant ancestor.

According to 6pm drive time guy, George Bush got raked over the coals for flying over New Orleans after Katrina (since he didn't want to be a distraction). No mention of the complete and total lack of government action for over a week while we all got to watch people starve on live television. Nope. Just the plane ride. Meanwhile, according to this dude, Biden is getting a pass on the Maui fires from the liberal media and apparently said "no comment" since he's on vacation? This is actually true https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/4152105-white-house-blows-off-criticism-of-biden-on-maui-wildfire/ But unlike the other disaster this guy cited, it appears that the federal government is, in fact, mobilizing pretty forcefully quote:Biden on Sunday morning, during a bike ride in Rehoboth, replied, “We’re looking at it,” when asked about whether he would go to Maui. Later on Sunday, following a stop at the beach, he responded “no comment” when asked about the rising death toll in Maui. I dunno, I guess it's good outrage fuel for outrage radio stations but everything I've read and heard seems to indicate that the government is working at it. You know, as opposed to sitting on their rear end. I suppose Biden could go out there and toss paper towels at people but wtf is his 80 year old senile rear end gonna do in Hawaii? Also, LOL at RWM wondering where the federal government is during a disaster.

MrUnderbridge posted:Virginia did that in 1924. One drop of anything besides white in your background and you were now legally whatever that was. Which is why the FFVs persuaded them to include the Pocahontas Clause, excluding from the one drop rule "persons who have one-sixteenth or less of the blood of the American Indian and have no other non-Caucasic blood."  Never underestimate the determination of old white high society people to have their racism cake and eat it too!The act had racist aftershocks right up to the present day, too. As a knock-on effect, the law was used to justify classifying members of Virginia Indian tribes as black, because the one rear end in a top hat registrar decided that there must be loads of black people pretending to be Chickahominy or whatever to get around segregation. This was a serious impediment when Virginia's tribes were seeking federal recognition.

People in the replies are saying he gave such a good answer. How the hell is it a good answer?! He didn't really address the question, instead he sidesteps it to argue people shouldn't be forced to make gay wedding cakes or let trans women compete against cis women in sports. And there's some rich irony there: "Majority of Americans support Medicare for all and gay rights" "Tyranny of the majority!" "Gay people should have the same rights and protections as straight people." "Tyranny of the minority!"Isn't there uhhh a few things in the constitution Vivek is missing here? https://twitter.com/KanekoaTheGreat/status/1690898045100326913?t=Hs5D5dxQYeLPbd7kIv_QnQ&s=19 quote:.@VivekGRamaswamy: What's your opinion on same-sex couples and the LGBTQ+ community?
