VitalSigns posted:If I posted on here that sprinkling lead shavings on my corn flakes every morning gave me long shiny gorgeous hair and cured my IBS, I'd be banned by the mods because telling people to harm themselves is dangerous and someone could get hurt if they're stupid enough to follow my advice. It's the bare minimum a responsible community will do to protect its members. it's good that you brought up this particular scenario because if you reflect upon the repeated attempts by people who frequent SAD to get the CSPAM COVID thread removed or otherwise functionally taken down because they think the people there are spreading unhealthy advice and are harming their own mental health, then it cuts right to the right of the problem with trying to wield censorship for the "public good" to the credit of the moderators, such calls have been rejected every time (so far), but that obviously is not what happened outside of SomethingAwful

I think if the thread were convincing people to eat horse paste and not vaccinate their kids it would get shut down or at least I hope it would

Hey, Gradenko, I have a question. I know someone who got covid p. bad in 2021 while he was back home in the phillipines. He was hospitalized & credited the docs giving him ivermectin with saving his life. Is that a standard covid treatment there, do you know?

Love the assumption of chud-think about a medical worker in a country in which u.s. drugs were unavailable, though. Great example of cartoon-brain among americans so thx for that. He was trying to get back to the u.s. in order to get the vaccine when he got covid. But I'll bet you pictured a sex tourist escaping u.s. pandemic rules or something, huh, Asproigerosis?

Willa Rogers posted:He's a medical worker. And not an anti-vaxxer. Non-doctor medical workers are frequently even worse than lay-people when it comes to medical topics. My dad was an X-ray tech and knew a lot of nurses and what have you, and he/they said and believed insanely stupid stuff constantly. I think it's because they're essentially exposed to all this stuff without actually having an education in it, so they come up with all sorts of wacky ideas. They'll see the same dumb poo poo on Facebook as everyone else their age, but because they're "healthcare professionals" they have a ton of unwarranted confidence in their own opinions.
