I hope you realize who your target audience is. If a Lemming doesn't know actual science and who MTG is, I have bigger questions about that person than the post.
I don't know or care (as a European) who MTG is, but obviously from the USA. All I see is a screenshot of some MD telling ivermectin should work because reasons I don't understand.
As a fellow European and therefore educated beyond fourth grade I know what RNA is, I also know that ivermectin is a horse dewormer, I also know that viruses aren't parasitic wounds.
As a fellow European, I wish I didn't have to know who MTG is, but sadly I do. I also wish that I never heard of HCQ, homeopathy, and the relations between Semitic religions and space-based laser weapons, but here we are
Homeopathy is way more popular in Germany than anywhere else in the world, is funded by state healthcare and administered by their so-called "real doctors". We're not that much better in Europe than the USA, just a few steps behind in the slow slide into madness.
Absolutely. We are on a 3-10 year delay, but we get the same bullshit. Remember when QAnon made its way over?
