Why will people try anything besides real medicine :(
Maybe if enough republicans die, Texas will turn blue.
One can only hope
They’ll just start a conspiracy that the democrats killed them and vote even harder conservative. Their brains are molded and crystallized, they aren’t fuckin’ changing lol
Voting is over. There will not be another fair election in the US until the guillotines fall.
I don’t think the answer is as simple as memes would like to believe. Personally I suspect the issue, in part, has to do with the cost of healthcare in the US.
Much like Republican voters have a need to pretend the GOP is actually helping them, I think holistic medicine rubes and anti-vaxxers have a need to discount the efficacy of unaffordable healthcare. They don’t need to worry about the price being a multiple of their income anymore, because they just now decided every doctor is a quack and a conman.
That’s good point. It’s sad but true
I think what also plays into it is apathetic doctors. People go to the doctor for help, if they have a doctor that doesn’t actually care about helping them and only spends a couple minutes with them before getting shooed out the door, this causes people to seek alternative forms of medicine. Another thing that happens is the doctor comes up with a treatment plan and insurance denies it. So once again, this is something that would cause people to seek alternative medicine. They get desperate for a fix for whatever problem ails them and the snake oil salesmen are right there ready and waiting for them on TikTok/Instagram/Facebook.
So between apathetic doctors and rising medical costs along with fear mongering on social media about medications being “poison” and natural cures being better, oh and let’s also add in there easily gullible idiots, you get where we’re at today.

Dead people can’t get autism from vaccines! Winning!
So now they’ll still have the measles but also be spewing out of both ends nonstop… Lovely.
they might as well drink a whole bottle of ipecac. they are going to get so dehydrated too(i once got dehydrated from food poisoning, from spewing out both ends)
You guys, we are going to need to make a whole new country to get away from this madness.
God, that actually sounds kind of nice.
I guess it’s better than drinking Borax or injecting bleach…
probably going to consuming essential oils. all these homeopathic, antivaxxers are all in on the essential oils.
Omega 3 aside, it’s not even effective in improving cholesterol levels. It does have a laxative effect though.
Where’s the ground zero for this misinformation? RFK?
pseudoscience doesnt use much evidence.
A cod liver isn’t a snake. It can’t be that bad.

It is amazing the hoops people will jump through to avoid actual proven medical treatments. “So rubbing this toad on my face and turning 5 times will protect me? Hell yah, beats the toxic vaccine!”

Technically the vitamin d content would be good for you, but something conservative, holistic, and witch doctor enthusiasts seem to lack is any belief in or understanding of any micro-organism which absolutely won’t lose to your body just because you drank some extra calories.
Somebody has been playing too much We Happy Few
Hmm. There is a small amount of truth to this, it seems, in that it can help the immune system, especially if you had a deficiency to start with.
Also some pretty nasty side effects, particularly if you have too much over a prolonged period of time.
