Rogan and Ivermectin: a fake news case study
The fascinating recent story of Joe Rogan's run-in with covid is a good opportunity to highlight once again the mendacity and duplicitousness of the establishment fake news media.
Rogan is in his mid-50's, part of the demographic the fake news keeps telling us is in mortal danger from the covid, which they use to justify their brutal and unconstitutional lockdown, removal of liberties, and destruction of small businesses and the American middle class. They also use it to justify their vax passport, soon to be changed into a China-style social credit system in which citizens can be locked out of society if they displease the ruling elites.
So when Rogan (who is believed to be unvaccinated) announced on his hugely popular podcast that he had had covid, took Ivermectin among other treatments, and recovered after a couple of days, this went badly against the narrative. Men in their mid-50's could take medicine for the virus rather than an untested gene therapy vaccine with accompanied dystopian control grid? That wouldn't do.
So the fake media went into attack mode.
Ivermectin, they said (in curiously synchronized fashion) was a "horse dewormer". When taken in too large a dose, it could be fatal! They screamed.
Second one first: that is true of most medicine. If you take a vastly high dose of anything, it could be fatal. But the "horse dewormer" canard is the real fakery.
Ivermectin has been used to treat humans for decades. The Ivermectin paste administered to horses is a completely different version, of different intensity, of the drug which was approved for human use in 1988, and approved in the US by the FDA for human use in 1996. Yes, 25 years ago. It has been used safely by hundreds of millions of people over that time.
In fact, Ivermectin was called a "wonder drug" for humans. [URL]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3043740/[/URL] - "There are few drugs that can seriously lay claim to the title of 'Wonder drug', penicillin and aspirin being two that have perhaps had greatest beneficial impact on the health and wellbeing of Mankind. But ivermectin can also be considered alongside those worthy contenders, based on its versatility, safety and the beneficial impact that it has had, and continues to have, worldwide."
Furthermore, not only is Ivermectin a drug that has been prescribed safely to humans for decades, but it was found to be effective in treating covid: [URL]https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33278625/[/URL] - "Ivermectin, a US Food and Drug Administration-approved anti-parasitic agent, was found to inhibit severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) replication in vitro. ".
However, Ivermectin goes against the combined interests of Big Pharma and the Washington Establishment. It is very cheap, and would cut into Big Pharma's vast profits for their neverending "vaccines" and "booster shots". And of course the establishment want a population that is vaxed, controlled and compliant (not to mention the destruction of small businesses and the middle class and creation of a serf class).
Hence the media's failure to mention that Ivermectin has been a "wonder drug" for humans for over 25 years with hundreds of millions of people helped. Instead of reporting that truth, they ran with the "horse dEwOrMeR" hit pieces against Rogan.
Are you beginning to see how the Washington establishment, Big Pharma, Big Tech, Big Finance and their Fake News work together to create and protect a fake narrative which damages the interests of the majority of Americans?
Military families love Trump
[QUOTE=Spidy;2603225]And when they invite Agent Orange to their memorials, they only prove him right for calling them losers and suckers.
After all what father or mother in their "right-mind" would want a narcissistic, corrupt, deceitful, con-man and grifter, who thinks their sons and daughters are losers and suckers for giving their lives in the service of their country.
No doubt, he'll use it as an photo-op to pose with the Bible and use tear gas to clear his path, for squeezing more donations out of his "losers and suckers". Oh wait, . . . sorry the tear gas is ONLY for BLM'ers.[/QUOTE]Military families love Trump and Trump supports the military and their families. That is why he gets invited. On the contrary Biden disasters are to blame for these 13 military killed and that is why the military and their families ban Biden from their functions. Only a fool is anti military and Biden qualifies for sure. And yes democrats hate Trump popularity with the military and some democrats are stupid enough to dispute his popularity. Probably a couple dumb ones on this forum.
