Local dentists hate this one weird trick! (So does the FDA)
If you believe in the medieval theory of toothaches being caused by tiny worms, it sounds a lot more reasonable.
There are people on nextdoor that constantly ask where they can source ivermectin, and raw milk has been popping up lately too. I just don’t get it.
Natural selection is back from its holiday.
Mix up a 5 gallon bucket of malt powder and whatever liquids you have laying around the garage and sell it to them as "stabilized " raw milk, no refrigeration required.
They want to feel smart so they seek out esoteric “knowledge”.
This basically sums up a lot of right-wing BS. They want the drama and excitement of plain-truth facts being incorrect in the face of exciting convoluted conspiracy theories that nobody can prove.
Because the stuff that’s actually exciting and unknown, flies miles above their heads.
It’s just the gene pool cleaning itself
Try to find out where they live.
America is barreling toward a bird-flu pandemic and they’re turning the headlights out on the clown car for safety in the dark.
So, estate sale coming. Cheap house.
(I kid, I kid)
Of the two famous horse drugs, why on earth did people gravitate towards ivermectin and not ketamine? Truly, we live in a dork world
Because Ivermectin is far easier to get, and perversely, they don’t want ketamine because it actually does shit to you.
I have lost some family to ketamine. They are doing both don’t you worry.
I’m sincerely sorry for your loss. Drugs are a seductress, especially when things are so tough. I hope you’re doing okay mate.
Oh I’m fine. I don’t even drink anymore. I take the occasional edible, but because so many in my family struggle with or struggled with addiction I am careful not to take edibles too often and especially not if I am overly emotional in any way.
Nice for a fun day but bad to rely on to stay happy.
Why does it have to be anyone in your family and not Elon Musk?
Because the rich fucks like Muskler want that precious ketamine all for themselves.
Hasn’t affected street prices, and I’d honestly rather be snorting that shit in a basement with my mates no matter what it’s cut with than doing it in a bajillion USDollar penthouse alone like Musk does, the fuckin dork
Guy might have worms or parasites. There were some studies that showed a weak correlation between ivermectin and better COVID-19 outcomes, but it turns out that only studies from third world countries showed even that weak effect, and yeah if you get rid of other problems like parasites, the body can fight off COVID-19 better.
Or maybe it’s totally made up bullshit?
All it’s missing is “and then everyone clapped” at the end.
Oh totally that’s the more likely explanation. My point is that even steelmanning the argument, it’s still wrong.
The rural South gobbles that shit up.
I’ve literally talked to doctors and nurses here who believe this nonsense. Not just a few. It’s a very common sentiment.
What do you do when you don’t feel like you’re safe in their hands? Get into herbal/folk/witchcraft remedies?
Go to a civilised country
You make it sound so simple
Honestly what’s probably more realistic is to move to another state/city. It’s still hard but it’s at least realistic.
It’s not, ask any migrant
While fermented garlic and honey are actually pretty good for you, (probiotics from fermentation, certain anti-microbial properties of both garlic and honey, etc), it’s not actual medicine.
Home remedies are great at making you feel a bit better while your body fights something off but they’re no substitute for medicine to actually help your body fight off your infection.
I’ll swear by hot tea, honey, lemon with a splash of some kind of liquor and some chicken noodle soup when dealing with a sore throat but I’m also taking cough medicine to actually manage the symptoms in addition to those home remedies.
Mint for nausea
Honey for soar throat
Antibiotics for fucking infections
Maybe these people all have parasites?
What’s worse is people who see this and praise it instead of calling them out.
Get them out of the gene pool faster
Guy just loves garlic.
I do too.
Please give me more of said witchcraft.
Medicine for people who steal their dog’s xanax
Sounds like something the AI cookbook would give you.
@BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world you consistently bring us top notch stupidity, and for that I am extremely grateful.
You are most welcome. I can’t believe how stupid these people are.
And then it got worse
From the same species that invented space crafts and laser-based communications.
How about dentistrycraft ?
What? Do you believe in dentists?!
No, deworming drugs are the way to go to improve your dental health. What do you think dentists do? It’s certainly not that.
(\s obviously, but if somebody needed me to point, it’s here.)
Alternatively you could just go to the dentist… oh wait… no, you probably can’t
And then everyone clapped
Pretty sure that’s just a jar of literal poop water
