And now you know why our illustrious 🤮 government was so keen on buying TikTok. They want the younger gen to get their news from them. Horse wormer, anti vax, anti science, free speech only for the Cons, eduction bad, bigotry and hate wholesale…
It’s either getting the news that’s approved by the US government or news that’s approved by the Beijing government.
Either way it’s authoritarians pulling the strings. But it seems Beijing paid the appropriate bribes so TikTok will have “news” that approved by the Beijing authoritarians, but if there’s too much “news” not approved by the US authoritarians they’ll need to pay more bribes. So this is a great source of information to trust!
ivermectin is approved for human use and does get prescribed for parasitic infections. ivermectin in a dish killed covid. it basically ended there, but there were multiple older common drugs that turned out to actually have a positive effect on covid recovery and prevention. at some point it wasn’t actually scientifically obvious whether ivermectin would have a positive effect, and we also need to take that into account. just snarking “these idiots are taking horse dewormer” doesn’t help anyone, especially not when it was an open question and there were personal anecdotes about recovery and a whole bunch of uncertainty and policy mismanagement. people were regularly confronted with death, and that requires a lot of empathy to think about.
