Sure, they were cured of cancer… until one day suddenly dropped dead, for no reason at all
It’s like these people got trolled by 4chan and believed every single word they said.
Wait. Can we solve this by sending Joe and Mel a crystal growing guide?
Maybe convince them that they can get pure cat pee and mix that with bleach to create chloramine.
When inhaled, it can cure them of any respiratory illness. Permanently!
I have some green food coloring in the pantry. Will that help with hemoroids?
I can confirm it will not. All it will do is leak a bit and then you spend years trying to figure out which specific spice has a bit of food coloring on the bottom because every now and then you find a green circle on the counter.
Its like slightly worse than talking to marxists
How is it only slightly worse?
Well they’re both insufferable but i think only one is brought on by lead exposure
When numbnuts have no power in society, it’s often dismissed as a fool’s errand to try to counter their crazy claims. But I think we all need to be countering the crazy at all times, not just when the biggest crazies are enjoying power and reach. Otherwise, we get Joe Rogan and Mel Gibson talking about curing terminal cancer with animal dewormer and Donald Trump winning a second term and appointing RFK Jr. to delete vaccines from history.
Horse/barn door situation, but still. It can always get worse.
Wet brain is a thing people. Drink in moderation.
That reminds me of some obscure bit of dialogue in some scifi show or something, where someone tries to insult another person by something but then they’re not offended, just autistically go “brains are supposed to be wet” for something.
Ugh it’s not wet though but something along those lines. Ugh this is gonna bother me all day
Why can’t they take like acute doses of actual poison? Why is it always this bullshit? Don’t be a pussy, drink the bleach, bitch!
As if he only has one house
Exactly what I was thinking of. 🤣
Don’t get too excited, there’s insurance for houses
I just hope insurance is one of the many things he doesn’t believe in
But it’s a huge inconvenience to him at best anyways
Remember that nobody is protected against conspiracy theories. This shit is going everywhere.
To be fair, Mel Gibson has been a racist, homophobic piece of shit for decades now. The fact that he’s waded into right wing conspiracy and grift, should be a surprise to no one.
I’m not defending idiots saying it cures cancer, but people dismissively calling ivermectin a “horse dewormer” when it’s approved for human use for all sorts of parasitic diseases is something that grinds my gears. It actually is something of a wonder drug, just not for what these idiots keep claiming.
Methylene blue is an approved drug too, (the first synthetic drug, coincidentally) it’s used for cyanide poisoning amongst other things. It’s also a MAOI, which makes it dangerous to take with a bunch of common medicines.
Propaganda and conspiracy usually work better when they have a bit of truth to them.
Same with ketamine, horse tranquilizer. Also a powerful fast acting anti depressent among a other very positive qualities
The horse dewormer thing iirc comes from the fact that ivermectin is a prescription drug, and doctors obviously wouldn’t prescribe it for covid. So people resorted to one of the very few ways you could still purchase it: as the horse dewormer variant.
Of course this version is much stronger and intended for horses, not humans. IIRC this led to a few hospitalisations and even deaths.
That’s why when people advocate you should take ivermectin, the counter claim is that they’re telling you to take horse dewormer, since that’s the only way to get it. It’s not out of a general ‘disrespect’ for ivermectin.
I’m pretty sure there were actually some doctors who were prescribing it
Yeah, and those (handful of) people were not taking horse dewormer.
Everyone else on ivermectin though…
It actually is something of a wonder drug
And it worked wonders on COVID patients who actually had parasites in the “throw everything at the wall” period. Word got out some patients had improved because of it. It became a whole thing because doctors didn’t got the same results with ivermectin in others trials, probably because their patients didn’t have parasites, and ruled it out as the COVID cure. Arm chair viral experts refused to believe it and made it a conspiracy, and from there on became a cornerstone of anti vax and right wing politics. Of course right wing commentators now make it the cure for cancer.
The fun fact about Methylene Blue that always is a hit with students is it also turns your pee a green/blue-green color.
in this corner, the challenger, using a B vitamin complex.
And our returning champion, Methylene Blue!^DING!!^
Yes, but invermectin is also a very strong drug and even for its intended uses, it’s rarely recommended to take it more than twice in a year. During covid days, people were taking it weekly.
Weekly? I feel like people were taking it far more often than that. And massive doses.
That’s what the blue is for
Yes it led to the first TB treatments or something didn’t it? I completely can’t remember, does it also have a link to the development of antidepressants? Somebody help me out, my undergraduate degree was a long time ago now.
Edit: oh yeah, it’s a MAOI, you literally wrote that in your post.
obligatory fuck daily mail but this screen was posted to a discord I’m in and I laughed then, I’ll laugh again now
I guess he’ll get to blame the Jews for that one again.
🎵Help the people the thing that happened happened toooooo 🎤

This is some of the best news I’ve heard all day.
There were so many calls to “Let Mel come back,” promising that his outbursts weren’t a real problem anymore and he was on the way to recovery. Nope. Don’t believe that shit. Second chances are dead now, thanks to cunts like him and these other fucks that have squandered the goodwill of the people. Gibson isn’t done doing harm. He will be a piece of shit until he dies, which can’t come soon enough. Fuck him and the entire tribe of fuckwads that spout the same and similar nonsense. They are a blight on humanity.
tribe of fuck wads
You realize you’re talking about 80 million people?
What’s your point? Antivaxxers are fuckwits who are trying to kill the innocent. They’d dispute that, but they don’t even understand how vaccines work, so what chance could they have of understanding cause and effect generally? And therefore, why should anyone give a shit what they have to say or what they think?
I’d probably just nod, too until the crazy old man went away.
I’d probably just not have a crazy old man as a guest, but hey ¯\(ツ)/¯
Was gonna say he wouldn’t have to nod along if he didn’t talk to the crazies, but then I remembered it’s precisely what he’s getting paid such absurd amounts to do.
Yeah, while I don’t doubt Rogan would swallow it hook, line and sinker; just nodding along is what most people would do with someone that’s a guest but batshit crazy.
I’d also say that JRE is entertaining, not education. I don’t listen to it myself, never have and probably never will, but I can see why people do.
I listen to a true crime pod which incorporates actual audio from police/court hearings and it can be great fun to listen to someone absolutely unhinged try to explain why they’re innocent.
Which podcast?
“The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world” Mel Gibson guy?.. he has been into conspiracy theories for a while
Good ol’ sugar tits.
We all know that’s total bullshit because Mel Gibson has no friends.
We all know that’s bullshit because Mel Gibson.
He’s rich, he can afford to buy them.
Pft he couldn’t even afford private firefighters
I support right-wingers who are dumb enough to believe this right to use this treatment (without forcing any doctors to do so, of course). It will only serve to diminish their numbers.
I don’t. They’ll treat their kids, too. And withhold actual care. I don’t want to punish an innocent boy or girl for their parent’s error.
