And some other nutjob put him in the Cabinet. How crazy does it have to get before some folks start to wake the hell up? 1

[think before following links] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivermectin_during_the_COVID-19_pandemic Dear White People, You are aware that ANYONE can edit Wikipedia, which is a HIGHLY DYNAMIC single source of truth no? Of course truth changes from ruler to ruler or from profit motive to profit motive. I appreciate our dear enabler RawTop and his wishes that only truth reign. I leave you with only questions rather than anything that could be construed as misinformation. 1) have all scientific insights already been had that the only thing left to do is to agree with all sources of past scientific insight and maybe even declare the end of inquiry? 2) can you, dear censors, think of a time in the past when one predominant interpretation of facts was replaced by a new prevailing interpretation of facts, perhaps the moment that Salem abandoned its scientific tests for witches? 3) from a personal perspective, what do you get out of shutting down diversity of thought? 4) do you remember when homos were the champions of fresh perspective and non-conformity? 5) have you ever PERSONALLY reinterpreted data? 6) what was Albert Einstein’s job when he wrote his papers on Brownian motion, specific relativity, general relativity, etc. and would you count his profession as providing him sufficient certifications for his insights? 7) were Copernicus and Galileo “misinformation spreaders” or are they sufficiently celebrated by the writers of Wikipedia to have homo street-cred? 8 ) have you ever witnessed two people you admire having a formidable debate? 9) Have you heard of an Overton Window? 10) given the number of times per day that you hear things you may disagree with, what % of daily disagreements is your banning and censorship regime addressing? 11) when one acknowledges an infraction, do you picture that the infractor has conformed his thinking? 12) what secret nonconformist thoughts do you have that you are smart enough not to express on this great site? 13) on a scale of 1 - 10, how manly would you rate a conformist? 14) how deeply is it necessary to go to understand uniquely-understood truths: Wikipedia-level depth or many-perspectives depth? 15) how BAD is it to be wrong, intellectually unpopular, or to have evidence of truths that the vast majority of homos simply lack, being highly reliant upon tailored sources of information subsidized by the profiteers? 16) did you ever see the play/movie with Meryl Streep as the nun with “Doubt”? 17) do you think you have access to all facts? 18) do you think all existing facts support your opinions, or might some facts support alternate opinions? 19) is there only black and white in your mental model or is there gray? 20) in your way of thinking, do liars exist and is it possible that they were motivated to write for Wikipedia? 21) is it true or false for you that lairs are at least sometimes motivated by the profit motive? 22) is it true or false for you that liars are likely to dress like truth-tellers, maybe even priests (or lab workers)? 23) have you ever been forgiven for making a mistake and either way how did that affect your interest in the forgiver’s perspective? 24) how many times have you made fun of “fascist” Italy or the Stalinist “Soviet Union” or the anti-homosexual Hollywood Hayes Code, and if so how much time have you spent exploring your blind spots? 25) it is said that scientific revolutions only occur when old scientists die: do you feel this is a reasonable insight or one that if expressed by a fellow bareback homo should be banned? very respectfully but stimulated highly by your future answers (wishing for myself an intense brain erection) 1 1 2

They're getting more frequent & louder 🤣🤣🤣. This AM, Australia 🇦🇺 got a VERY BIG earthquake strength jolt when a reporter asked Trump about the AUKUS deal. "AH, WHAT'S THAT🤔??? " He's an IDIOT 😱. 1 1
Moderators viking8x6 Posted February 28 Moderators Report Posted February 28 @nanana re your screed Yup. Aware of all that. Commenting specifically and exclusively on my statement that @insatiableholeinTO's is false: "Deaths...would not have been" has no truth value, as we cannot know what would have happened in a hypothetical case; "now approved against Covid" is demonstrably false. Q.E.D. Way wayyyyyy back at the beginning of this thread, I posted a warning that promotion of denialism is not OK. Yup, still true. Goes for Covid as well. <edit re your item 2> "very small rocks" 😉 2
ellentonboy Posted February 28 Report Posted February 28 I have been jabbed so many times for Covid that the white card they gave out once the vaccine was available is completely full. I was boosted in October and the pharmacist laughed telling me I no longer need the card. I keep it, just in case, next to my passport. But here is my point. I have traveled nationally and internationally since the vaccine because available. I have been on planes and cruise ships with thousands of people. I have NEVER ONCE gotten Covid. I have come in contact with thousands of people and not once have I become ill. Why? I continue to follow guidelines, I am not going down some rabbit hole. I want to live my life and not have it halted by a virus. 1 4

They've never bothered me at all, so why not take a professional's advice? 3
PozBearWI Posted February 28 Report Posted February 28 My pharmacist doesn't have to ask me... He can see my records we've developed over the years. I am going to believe my doctor over some dude I've never met in person, much less sans credentials uttering their line of snake oil. As a society we tried to deal with this in the 1800's and 1900's to counteract snake oil salesmen (who exist throughout human history) and largely succeeded. Now we have new snake oil sales men trying to get the system to work in their favor. The unskilled and unqualified leading the charge.

Also the wikipedia article you quoted indicate that many countries have approved ivermectin for use “Countries that have granted such official approval for ivermectin include the Czech Republic,[56] Slovakia,[56]Mexico,[59] Peru (later rescinded),[60][61] India[62][63](later rescinded),[64] and the Philippines.[65] “ I don't see anywhere in insatiableholeTOs original post about a specific jurisdiction. (He’s from Toronto.) Since assertive speculation sounds off limits, I’ll just say, thanks for enabling us you have a difficult job. 1
nanana Posted March 1 Author Report Posted March 1 For rockstar @viking8x6 can you clarify whether 8 is your girth or length (and if girth diameter or circumference?)
