The brain worm commands it

The rest of the world should forbid all travels in and out of the US. And bring back lazarettos for those that must travel there.

The future of US healthcare looks like this

pharmaceutical industry pushing patented pills, powders, pricks, potions, and poisons

Look, I’m not here to defend the pharmaceutical industry, but at least they’re fucking REGULATED.

Unlike, say, the supplement industry which he so loves… That’ll tell you: take these 50 expensive potions and you’ll get better, not the thing that has been rigorously tested & proven over generations.

FUCK IT! Why not also throw out all the work of Koch and Pasteur!

You know what they call “alternative medicine” that works?

Medicine.

Get your mmr and tdap boosters 💉

I’m not surprised. Carl Sagan saw this coming in 1995

I have a foreboding of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time – when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness…

wow he is really going all out to sell his supplements huh

Back in the 80’s or 90’s there was this one show in Spanish “Erase Una Vez LA Vida”. You just have your kids watch that a few times and they will be experts in the human body. Including the knowledge of how viruses are always lurking around trying to fuck us all up:

I am at a loss as to how we could have regressed like this. At a complete and absolute loss.

As a 90s kid I remember the zeitgeist of the time (and even in the early 2000s) that the world was ever in a forward march and we will never stop going forward…

Holy shit they were not just wrong, but how wrong was scary. I will also never forget how on the internet shortly after 9/11 (albeit those view points predate 9/11) made the whole clash of civilization between the rational and intelligent and scientific west and the barbaric Muslim world that is stuck in the 12th century or something.

They made the then scientific lead of the west a result of a core, rock solid trait of the west that was reached purely through discussion and debate and based only on facts. Meaning it cannot be done away with that quickly.

But barely in the past 15 years (maybe even less) view points that would be seen as an absolute joke became mainstream, and not only that, the same loonies are the ones in charge now. Ironically in the early covid-19 time many were acting all shocked that Muslim countries not only had lock downs and that there was no resistance to them… as if Muslims are in such denial of modern anything that they think they cannot be barred from being sick or something.

And then they claimed that the Muslims morons who DID defy lockdowns and became super spreaders were purely unique to the Islamic world. Never mind the fact that religious people of all stripes (Hindus, Sikhs, and Christians… my god the Christians! Christians Koreans were singlehandedly responsible for making covid-19 a problem in Korea!) Fucked up, they still acted like it was purely a Muslim problem.

I wonder how many of them now even realise just how fucking FAST the entire world order they claim is a deep intrinsic trait is falling apart.

I’m sorry, where did this guy get his relevant PhD(s) again?

Sounds like we’re going back to the “four humors:”

The “four humors” are a classical theory, developed by ancient Greek physicians like Hippocrates, that suggests human personality and health are determined by the balance of four bodily fluids: blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile. An excess or deficiency of these humors was believed to influence both temperament and susceptibility to illness.

This theory was influential in ancient and medieval medicine, influencing how people understood and treated illness and even personality. While no longer considered a scientifically valid theory of human health, it’s a significant part of the history of medicine and offers a glimpse into ancient philosophical and medical thinking.

Except now we are actually using a contemporary version of it to rule our health care system.

Cool.

Let’s bring back blood letting and leeches. For health reasons.
