Vaccines are evolution at work. So long as they work, you live longer and have a higher chance of reproducing. This is not a difficult concept. My genetic line is going on as long as I can throw it.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha This guy just discredit any future movie involving an FBI agent for the next 75 years. We knew america had a under-education problem, but man you guys are something.

I guarantee he doesn't actually believe this shit. He's just a grifter grifting just like the rest of the Whitehouse circus cast. The only exception might be Robert F. Kennedy Jr. That freak show might actually believe the shit he spews.

[-] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 4 points 11 hours ago

That freak show might actually believe the shit he spews.

He may, he may not, but the brain worm does, and he's given to its will.

Germany just had a sweeping far right election, and Argentina has had a libertarian at the helms for a bit now. A ton of south Asian countries have had hardcore conservative views for a while now, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Canada shifts right next election. There are basically few corners of the earth where populism/right wing ideology isn’t growing and expanding. This isn’t an American education system problem, it’s world wide. The political elites in your country just have you convinced that it’s America that’s now the problem, which then creates a new wave of populism in your country. It’s a self eating snake.

Not that I’m disagreeing that our slapping of allies isn’t problematic. This is just something that is clearly growing everywhere and the people of Lemmy love saying “America bad” as the same exact shit is happening in your country. If you’re an American expand your news beyond our shores. The grass is unfortunately turning to shit everywhere. We’re in for a rough decade together.

Germany just had a sweeping far right election

you can't say 20% a 'sweeping'. The situation is worse at other places. And thanks to true multi party democracy, AfD probably won't be in government anyway.

[-] mean_bean279@lemmy.world 69 points 18 hours ago

I hope so for Germanys sake. A 9% increase from the last election, for a party that’s 12 years old… that’s pretty sweeping to me. Not to mention that it’s more so the southern parts of Germany that have an even stronger percentage of AfD support.

Again, I’m not wanting a right shift for these countries, but it’s become clear that things are. We could stick our head in the dirt and say it’s only America, but that wouldn’t be true, and that’s what I was getting at with my comment.

The US is literally in control of fascist now, it's not nearly as bad in Germany, not that it's good but there is a big difference

Let's be clear here, the right extremist party got over 20% which is really bad for sure, but the mid-right party rules out working with them in a coalition no matter what. That's rather different from where the rest of the republicans and many democrats fall over themselves to do whatever the lunatic fringe says. Further, the American billionaires are strong influencers of these trends in other countries. The core of the disease is the USA even when there are symptoms everywhere.

[-] kaosof@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

The Swedish mid-right also ruled out working with the far-right. Until they had to to gain government control.

[-] porous_grey_matter@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 hours ago

I agree it's a huge concern and I also absolutely don't trust the CDU, and especially Merz, as far as I can throw them. However I'm just saying that the situation is not identical to the USA, there are some points of difference.

Sorry, some of us did what we could...

[-] uberfreeza@lemmy.world 53 points 17 hours ago

Out of curiosity, I read one of their scientific studies on the website. The first one I read was a literature review (no tests were actually done) that said "one study says the supplement does nothing and another two sources say the study was done wrong so it could maybe be beneficial???" Wow. Such strong evidence.

Shedders? Do these people think vaccines are contagious?

[-] TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 45 points 16 hours ago

Yes, pay attention to mention of "shedding". They think that vaccination causes the PT in question to shuck it off as though they were Pigpen from Charlie Brown cartoon.

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 32 points 15 hours ago

they should wear a mask, so they don't catch it

It's not even applicable to most vaccines.

Basically polio spreads through poop, and this is your shedding. Oral Polio Vaccine does this as it's a weakened form of the polio virus and exhibits the same spread and provides vaccination indirectly to others. The US uses E-IPV, which is inactive and harmless and doesn't have this spread.

You'll only find OPV being used in countries with very inadequate medical access as it can be administered orally(hence the name). Only downside is that if you are very immunocompromised, there is a non zero chance you get polio and a chance you suffer from paralysis.

Flu vaccines, covid vaccine, literally anything else doesn't have this "shedding". It's literally one vaccine that isn't even administered in the united states.

Gotta love people who don’t want to take a vaccine that was designed by the absolute top experts in the field and extensively tested, but have no problem popping pills some grifter on the interweb sold them.

We're fucked. This guy is now in charge of the FBI and now has the power to investigate and charge people with federal crimes.

[-] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 74 points 19 hours ago

But more important, the power not to investigate people. Wink wink

Does anyone else see a limp dicknballs as the logo on the pill?

Hahah, I didn't before you pointed it out. It's perfect, a small dick and a loose old man sack as the logo for "warrior essentials" manly alpha man supplement scam.

This guy should be, at the very least, removed from office. I don't care if it's handcuffs or a body bag.

I was planning on starting a website that will "use your device's wifi to purge any 5g nanitesfrom your body" with a "cleansing signal" for only $19.99. (For entertainment purposes only - there are no health benefits guaranteed or claimed by this site)

In musk's deregulatory hellscape, the disclaimer is likely not even necessary now.

Alright I'm not sure how its even possible this is a product, there is absolutely no mechanism where this is even remotely possible. This is just straight up fraud.
