    This is definitely me being naive, but I didn't actually think that many chuds would be able to get their hands on ivermectin and then use it. I hoped it was mostly meme use lol

    Literally any other situation should be treated before an ivermectin overdose

        If I was immoral I'd set up a scam website and I'd sell a product I'd call something like IVERMECTIN SUPER SUPOSSITORIES and - of course - they are SUPER SAFE! I'd mimic the horse paste box but I'd put Trump's face where the horse's is. And I'd keep "Apple Flavored!" on the box.

        I'd sell boxes with 10 pills inside for some insane amount like $37 $97. The pills would be regular suppositories I bought wholesale.

          I take no pleasure in informing you that $37 per pill is not an insane amount to pay

      In my country you just need to say that you have itchy skin to the right doctor and they'll give you a tube of topical ivermectin skin cream. Some of the chuds eats this, I shit you not. Or you can go on dodgy websites and buy ivermectin pills. Or doctors can illegally exploit compassionate use protocol and prescribe ivermectin pills. As a last resort, you can go to the vet or an animal feed store and buy ivermectin for animals.

    ivermectin:

    • apple flavored

    vaccine:

    • not apple flavored

    but sure, the so-called vaccine is clearly the superior option 🙄

      The vaccine is actually sour cherry flavored, but they were so concerned that people would eat all the vaccines that they shot the guy who made them and then started injected people with it instead

      They're hiding the truth and only you can help me dig it out

      Yes, the Roman turn to early Christianity wasn't so much the cause of its collapse (as is often believed) but a symptom of institutional rot. In Judea, Jesus was one of hundreds of similar personalities starting up fringe cults in an explosion of messianic spiritualism around that time- his was just the breakout success

      Right now the Q movements absolutely have the opportunity to create permanent offshoot religions from Evangelical Christianity, possibly with a new living prophet placed higher than Jesus

        Tfw Jesus is the messiah but you think he was a lame messiah so you become a messiah also and lead your people in guerrilla warfare in the bar kokhba rebellion against the imperialist Roman forces and end up getting your people massacred and banned from the holy city

        There were other cults that got huge too, what became Catholicism (ignoring the east west schism in the 11th century) just won out. For example the Mithraic Mysteries, and several other mystery religions (and outside the empire there was also Manichaeism which was the major competitor to Christianity and Islam in central Asia and Persia, and North Africa for a time, it by far was the biggest competitor, lasting in China till the 14th century. Augustine of Hippo famously converted from Manichaeism to Christianity. It was a syncretic religion, taking aspects of zoroastrianism, christianity, judaism, and Buddhism I think. It revered Zoroaster, the buddha, and Jesus as prophets. Really interesting in that Zoroastrianism also as a base used the same myths as the Rigveda). Christianity was just rather special in the empire in that it was centered more on common practice and salvation than the mystery cults. However it's important to remember that there were many varieties of Christianity super different from one another vying for mass support, and what became catholicism won out via state support and organization like the Nicean councils (as well as outside factors resulting in the decline of others, like the Church of The East). There were versions where Christ was just a man or just a god, where there two different gods, or seven, or hundreds, and all calling themselves "Christianity" (got that from a good askhistorians thread). A quite strange and eclectic one of these, Gnosticism, had ideas get into Manichaeism that made it to China, and still survives in bits in pieces in Mandaeism, a small now ethnic religion in Iraq.

        TFW an undercover communist becomes the leader of Q and a cadre of undercover communists support his rise to power and then they lead a guerilla war against the US in the name of "freedom" that becomes communism as things progress..... :fidel-cool:

      Yes, societies in collapse consistently see a retreat into mysticism and/or snake oil salesmen

      For example when the USSR was in terminal collapse there was an explosion in popularity of televangelists, faith healing, and miracle cures for illnesses

      So this is all from posts I only sort of remember, but basically there was a paper that said it could kill covid. Except the context is that it was in a vial, not in human trails, and the dose of ivermectin was like 5x or 10x or some other crazy number times the lethal dose for humans. Basically, they figured out if you throw an obscene amount of toxic shit at covid, it'll die :surprised-pika: . So anyway, (this is the part im really foggy on) some white south american farmers picked up on this, and theres apparently a white south american farmer to US chud meme pipeline or something? and now we're here. :cat-confused:

        The trial was a "try any medication to see if it can kill covid" study.

        There are dozens of drugs that have some benefit at heroic doses, but those sort of studies were done before we had a vaccine.

        Those studies were done in case none of the vaccines worked.

      QAnon Republican cadres made a front group called America's Frontline Doctors which has been spreading massive amounts of misinformation about the plague across social media. So in poorer countries who lack access to vaccines there have been bizarre studies into potential treatments as long shot desperation moves. AFD picked up an Egyptian study about the efficacy of Ivermectin on treating COVID, a study that was later shown to have fabricated its statistics and debunked. This caused an explosion in demand for Imervectin but since it is not commercially available for humans people went after the paste made for horses.

      It would suddenly become a lot better if people dying from the horse drug 2 were in the back of the line behind everyone else.
