I saw this meme posted by Sean Sorrentino:

I have seen the mentioning of usage of horse dewormer under the name Ivermectin for COVID in some places, but mostly ignored as another fad or just plain propaganda on one or more side of the Kung Flu show. But knowing Sean, I figured I should check a bit behind the meme even knowing that Nobel Prizes go to people and not products. What did I find?

William C. Campbell – Facts (nobelprize.org)

William C. Campbell
The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2015
A number of serious infectious diseases are caused by parasites spread by insects. River blindness is caused by a tiny worm that can infect the cornea and cause blindness. Lymphatic filariasis, or elephantiasis, is also caused by a worm and produces chronic swelling. Satoshi Omura cultured bacteria, which produce substances that inhibit the growth of other microorganisms. In 1978 he succeeded in culturing a strain from which William Campbell purified a substance, avermectin, which in a chemically modified form, ivermectin, proved effective against river blindness and elephantiasis.

And next:

Satoshi Ōmura – Facts (nobelprize.org)

Interesting, wouldn’t you say? The question is not if the medicine is effective or not. I believe more than likely it won’t since it has a very specific non-viral target. The question is what do the Propaganda Warlords think of you: “You are a fucking dunce who do not understand the complexities of modern medicine so in order to keep you away from making silly decisions that we don’t like, we are going to badmouth a medication whose designers got a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine and it is actually curing people all over the world and even animals from other maladies.”

This right here is why people are not taking vaccination seriously nor other health related advice. The people running Covid information are rejects of Madison Avenue who believe anybody living past the Potomac or the Hudson are a bunch or rubes that cannot be told the truth or at least some accurate information.

So, here is an exception.

And the government of South Australia, one of the country’s six states, developed and is now testing an app as Orwellian as any in the free world to enforce its quarantine rules. People in South Australia will be forced to download an app that combines facial recognition and geolocation. The state will text them at random times, and thereafter they will have 15 minutes to take a picture of their face in the location where they are supposed to be. Should they fail, the local police department will be sent to follow up in person. “We don’t tell them how often or when, on a random basis they have to reply within 15 minutes,” Premier Steven Marshall explained. “I think every South Australian should feel pretty proud that we are the national pilot for the home-based quarantine app.”

Don’t worry, you won’t be forced to download an app as I am sure carrier companies will be more than gladly to update you phone for you and install that app.

Then again sending cops to a geolocation to arrest an individual for violating some idiotic lockdown regulation may turn out to be a dangerous enterprise.

Apropos of nothing, here is an old post.

A show of human kindness and compassion.

Sometimes we need a reminder that it still exists in this world.

Where do I start? How about the apparent contradiction from the ACLU where in the first tweet stating that government mandates restricting freedoms are actually promoting  Civil Liberties or the admission that such basic liberties are restricted and that if we only are good subjects and allow the vaccination mandates, our freedoms will be restored. Again, they admit our freedoms are indeed curtailed, but rather that loudly protest and demand they are respected, they actually place the responsibility for their restriction on us for somehow not accepting a mandate.

We are about to become Prison Country Australia with the blessings of the American Civil Liberties Union, an organization that is supposed to fight any attempt against civil liberties with the ferocity of a pissed off pride of lions. But they are now cute little kittens chasing after a stringed toy being pulled by the administration and expecting us to do the same.

We are on our own.

It’s been two days since Texas went constitutional open carry and I’ve heard of no mass shootings, blood in the streets, or guys being disarmed and pistol whipped.

If there were any you’d know because the media would be in a frenzy over it to have something to look at instead of the Biden failure in Afghanistan.

I guarantee if 60% of Texans agree with him, it’s only a sampling of the people who just moved to Texas from California.

I guarantee most Texans don’t care.

North Carolina has permit-less open carry.

I go into the Walmart in my small town and see people open carrying and nobody cares.

This guy cares so much about what you do while walking around not bothering him that he has to post his violent fantasies about it online.

Says more about him than us.

It’s always the ugliest, least fuckable women who are the loudest and most aggressively pro-abortion.

It’s almost like they are trying to signal that there are men who actually have recreational sex with them and that’s why they need this service.
