Of the two famous horse drugs, why on earth did people gravitate towards ivermectin and not ketamine? Truly, we live in a dork world
Because Ivermectin is far easier to get, and perversely, they don’t want ketamine because it actually does shit to you.
Because the rich fucks like Muskler want that precious ketamine all for themselves.
Hasn't affected street prices, and I'd honestly rather be snorting that shit in a basement with my mates no matter what it's cut with than doing it in a bajillion USDollar penthouse alone like Musk does, the fuckin dork
Guy might have worms or parasites. There were some studies that showed a weak correlation between ivermectin and better COVID-19 outcomes, but it turns out that only studies from third world countries showed even that weak effect, and yeah if you get rid of other problems like parasites, the body can fight off COVID-19 better.
Or maybe it's totally made up bullshit?
All it's missing is "and then everyone clapped" at the end.
Oh totally that's the more likely explanation. My point is that even steelmanning the argument, it's still wrong.
I read one story of a guy who swore Ivermectin saved him from Covid. He's completely cured now thanks to horse dewormer with no lasting effects.
(Except for losing half his lung capacity). But it prevented all bad covid issues, flawlessly perfect outcome!
If you believe in the medieval theory of toothaches being caused by tiny worms, it sounds a lot more reasonable.
I mean, they're not wrong. It's just the worms are REALLY tiny.
There are people on nextdoor that constantly ask where they can source ivermectin, and raw milk has been popping up lately too. I just don't get it.
It's just the gene pool cleaning itself
Mix up a 5 gallon bucket of malt powder and whatever liquids you have laying around the garage and sell it to them as "stabilized " raw milk, no refrigeration required.
The rural South gobbles that shit up.
I've literally talked to doctors and nurses here who believe this nonsense. Not just a few. It's a very common sentiment.
What do you do when you don't feel like you're safe in their hands? Get into herbal/folk/witchcraft remedies?
While fermented garlic and honey are actually pretty good for you, (probiotics from fermentation, certain anti-microbial properties of both garlic and honey, etc), it's not actual medicine.
Home remedies are great at making you feel a bit better while your body fights something off but they're no substitute for medicine to actually help your body fight off your infection.
I'll swear by hot tea, honey, lemon with a splash of some kind of liquor and some chicken noodle soup when dealing with a sore throat but I'm also taking cough medicine to actually manage the symptoms in addition to those home remedies.
Maybe these people all have parasites?
@BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world you consistently bring us top notch stupidity, and for that I am extremely grateful.
Sounds like something the AI cookbook would give you.
Fermented honey-garlic legit rocks. It goes well with everything. Now, I've never tried it with horse dewormer, but who knows.
What's worse is people who see this and praise it instead of calling them out.
Get them out of the gene pool faster
Local dentists hate this one weird trick! (So does the FDA)
Medicine for people who steal their dog’s xanax
Alternatively you could just go to the dentist.... oh wait... no, you probably can't
It’s the US. Pulling teeth by nylon wire bound to a car and using dewormers for random infections is understandable, given the state of their health care system.
And then everyone clapped
How about dentistrycraft ?
What? Do you believe in dentists?!
No, deworming drugs are the way to go to improve your dental health. What do you think dentists do? It's certainly not that.
(\s obviously, but if somebody needed me to point, it's here.)
Guy just loves garlic.
I do too.
Please give me more of said witchcraft.
Forget the ivermectin. Honey and garlic sounds like it might be kinda good. Ever try hot honey on, say, pizza? Yeah.
Yeah was gonna say, honey and garlic is probably a pretty good naturopathic concoction. Friend of mine used to brew a chilli tea for colds, sounds like garlic honey would work well with it
I'll pass on the ivermectin though
Mmmm. With some pineapple, Canadian bacon... sounds delish.
Pineapple… uh… order your own pizza lol
Pretty sure that’s just a jar of literal poop water
Let them. Hopefully it helps thin out the herd. We ought to suggest 3.5g of coke mixed in a can of coke, q daily. Nothing bad could come of that. It’ll even support the local (illicit drug) economy!
Arsenic. She just has to give it to him in small doses so he builds up an immunity.
That’s also a great idea!
Is this a black widow meme?
