Could have been worse, like realizing it’s genetic and issuing mandatory sterilizations to both the autistic people and their parents.
Apparently someone of Kenvue Inc. (owner of the Tylenol brand) forgot to pay the bribe.
Next week it will be some random product that Bayer makes that may or may not be linked to autism.
I knew it was gonna be dumb, but fuck-a-duck! I was not expecting fucking Tylanol to get blamed
Speed running government distrust so they can begin auctioning off the public sector and taking their sweet cut
Not iHerb! That’s my go to shop. Any alternative to recommend?
I know! Is the only way to get decent peanut butter in some countries. Guess I’m going to have to learn how to make peanut butter.
Anyway what about the epstein files?
Ugh, and folinic acid is just a vitamin that can, in some cases and conditions, help with some language processing issues.
Like it can help with apraxia. It’s not a cure for autism. Or anything.
That’s what happens when a snake oil salesman is given a government job.
Draining the Swamp so they can Milk the Snake 🤯
Honestly, I blame Ophra Winfrey for propping up that quack TV host.
The behind the bastards episodes on Oprah were enlightening
After the Oprah episodes they did a compilation episode of all of the bastards Oprah gave us that they’d previously covered, including Dr Phil. It was like 9 hours long. I couldn’t finish it.
Phil McGraw, I like to point out has a bad reputation and still got a prime time drama about his career on CBS called Bull.
There are been allegations that the work environment on the set of his talk show was toxic for those working on it. On top of that, there had been allegations that guest who were on certain types of medications would have it withheld before taping. Separate from this there was allegations that guest would often be given alcohol and illicit drugs before taping.
I’ve only watched like five minutes of this show ever, where a mother tried reaching out to her daughter that was engaged in sex work. She wanted to get her daughter to stop the sex work. Everything McGraw said was vile and victim blaming about the daughter’s lifestyle. It was utterly disgusting.
The was quite literally the playbook of Andrew Wakefield when he published the 1998 fraudulent paper in the Lancet that purported to link MMR vaccines to autism, kicking off our entire modern round of anti-vax nonsense.
He stood to make millions selling test kits to people suddenly fearful of vaccination, IIRC. They’re all scum, seeking to rake in money on the very fears they’ve stoked.
Wait iHerb is a Dr. Oz company? Dang, I’ve used them several times, gotta remember to avoid them in the future
It’s a really bad move by iHerb. They made him a brand ambassador or some shit in 2023. The company was doing fine then they had to get in bed with Brainworms’ buddy.
You can find all sorts of info on the press releases. Bunch of really lame brain marketing bullshit.
Regardless of who owns it, I’m not sure I would trust any other supplement marketplace. I’m never buying supplements from Amazon ever again.
Kirkland Brand is fine.
Finally we are seeing real American healthcare. This was never about healing or helping people and this is the real reason why we make so much drugs.
Just waiting for him to start pushing Forsynthia as the cure to measles.
Grifters are going to grift. Using the government to grift doesn’t surprise me.
What hurts the most is how many people are so desperate that they are going to buy into some snake oil and not actually get any help.
I think this is based on poor understanding of genetics. A lot of neurodivergent people have mutations in a gene (MTHFR) that deals with processing folate, but that doesn’t mean they have reduced folate by itself. But, taking folic acid if you have decreased ability to process it can actually cause health problems. I’m not sure what the difference is for folinic acid, but this just all sounds very pharma-bro and unscientific to me
You should watch hbomber vid on vaccines and autism if you are prepared for a bit of rage. It’s def not based on any science or any poor understanding
My brain doesn’t handle videos very well, what’s the summary?
A corrupt doctor did horrible things to vulnerable child patients (e.g. dangerous colonoscopies without proper consent) in order to make a B.S. article claiming the MMR vaccine causes autism, all to help a friend sell an alternative—separate Mumps, Measles, and Rubella vaccines—and make a shitload of money. It backfired, he lost his medical license and accidentally convinced half the U.S. that all vaccines are evil.
And Jenny McCarthy needed a scapegoat for why her child had “Autism.”
(Quotes because autism was all I heard, but neurodivergent wasn’t in common nomenclature back then…)
But if you go all the way back to the start of this…it’s the girl from singled out’s fault, she was duped by the horrible doctor too
