The only reason I keep Facebook is for unhinged stuff like this

    And to use it for treating Covid (or whatever bizarre “ailment” he’s using it for here) is “alternative medicine”, so stop defending it as a valid treatment. That’s simply ridiculous.

    Especially because you even admit that this idiot obviously bought drugs from a scammer (and is obviously suffering the consequential side effects of improper use/dosages), not from valid prescriptions from a licensed medical professional.

    Be reasonable instead of getting all high and mighty and try to pwn me over some absurd esoteric technicality.

      …but you repeating the “It’s horse medicine” trope is just as much disinformation as the “it’s a COVID treatment” people. You don’t know. You’re just repeating shit you heard because it aligned with your politics.

      If somebody has been prescribed it, they should be taking it. Not worrying about why their doctor has given them “horse medicine” and refusing it. …and it’s an extremely common prescription.

        lol, to anyone with even a cursory understanding of the subject (not to mention even a single brain cell), this “both sides are the same” argument is as preposterous as your defending your position in the first place.

        I have better things to do than to validate your argument by entertaining it further.

        I’m just gonna block you now. Scream into the void if it makes you feel better. I learned long ago that it is a waste of time and effort to try to reason with the unreasonable. One cannot reason a person out of a position they did not reason themselves into. I’m gonna stick with doctors and science, and you can argue grammatical technicalities all you like without me. Best of luck with that.

        I’m out.
