Well the blue color actually proved valuable in spinal reconstruction. (AFAIK)

And that’s basically it!
When numbnuts have no power in society, it's often dismissed as a fool's errand to try to counter their crazy claims. But I think we all need to be countering the crazy at all times, not just when the biggest crazies are enjoying power and reach. Otherwise, we get Joe Rogan and Mel Gibson talking about curing terminal cancer with animal dewormer and Donald Trump winning a second term and appointing RFK Jr. to delete vaccines from history.
Horse/barn door situation, but still. It can always get worse.
It's really quite scary how many people will believe claims from someone who has no qualifications on the subject just because they are an influencer. Ivermectin works on mites and other parasitic animals by paralyzing their muscles. Following this logic, it would be analogous to claiming that benzodiazepines cured my friend's broken limb.
What is this obsession some people have with ivermectin? They don't believe in the moon landings but they think ivermectin has magic powers.
How long until Rogan bros wake up to the bullshit this guy is shoveling?
Sooooooo…. Broprah agrees with ignorance. Is this new?
We need to get Joe Rogan to think the key to eternal youth is uranium glass butt plugs
my uncle survived WW2 and lived to be 102 while wearing a uranium glass butt plug the whole time.
dude never shit solid a day in his life.
docs said he might have lived longer if not for the colon cancer.
Steve Jobs, an otherwise very intelligent and successful guy, got diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and instead of jumping right on treating it instead let it go and sought out all sorts of "natural" cures. Well it became terminal and he admitted that if he had treated it at the start it was in an early enough stage where he likely would've survived. There is a trait in some smart people to think they are experts on everything.
