Not my screenshot please don’t comment.
So basically:
- He went to Ireland with his vaccinated new wife.
- While there he got covid, but she didn’t. Probably because she was vaccinated.
- He recovered but ended up with long covid.
- To fix a completely misdiagnosed issue, his parents took him to a quack chiropractor, who tweaked his neck the wrong way and caused him to have a stroke.
But yeah, the real reason for all his problems is a magical contagious vaccine. I swear this reality is so fucked because of these people.
Why would you go to a chiropractor for any medical problem? Get a tarot reading and a horoscope, the results will be just as useful.
My neighbor is a neurologist and told me that an astoundingly high number of people who come to the ER due to a stroke had recently had a rapid neck adjustment by a chiropractor.
I will never go to a chiropractor after what she told me.
Worth noting that the chance of a stroke being triggered by a chiropractic neck adjustment is extremely low, but it does happen, and I bet if you look at stroke cases a good chunk of them recently had a neck adjustment. That said, chiropracters are complete horse shit.

I work in neuro and this is entirely true.
You don’t get a stroke from a neck massage
That’s a solid argument against a thing I didn’t say.
You may very well think that, but my mum had a cold and went to a chiropractor, and within a week the cold was gone.
Fucking miracle, mate.
The results from a tarot reading and horoscope would be safer than going to a chiropractor.
Some of them dabble in physical therapy and do some useful stuff. I think that may be why they keep a better reputation than, say, homeopaths.
My mom goes to a quack chiropractor. He mostly sells her vitamins (by magically divining what she’s deficient in using straight-up fraud “kinesiology”) but keeps her believing by occasionally giving her medically significant advice. He’s still grifting her decades later off of saying she was deficient in magnesium after she complained about constipation. Yeah mom, it worked because that stuff is a laxative. No mom, he couldn’t tell you were deficient because your arm was stronger while holding a vial of magnesium. He’s just changing how hard he pushes on you. It’s fraud mom.
I was willing to accept that maybe there’s some actual medical use for chiropractors except now a large chiropractic chain is one of my clients at work and along with their rampant HIPPA non-compliance I’ve gotten to see how the sausage is made, how much of a conveyer belt they designed that does not stop long enough for any real personalized patient care I trust them less than I ever did (another client is the fact that they also own a chain of “natural medicine” stores which they often place in the same buildings as their chiropractic clinics)
I go to a chiropractor for chronic back pain. they do wonders. the trick is to find someone with actual qualifications, not the sketchy ones that hurt peoole
I can translate. Someone told them that being infected with covid was effectively equivalent to being vaccinated, and they took that the wrong way. The rest is just fear of things they don’t understand.
No someone expected them to know that and did not tell them

No, he caught the vaccine from his wife. It’s contagious.
If that actually happened things would be so much better.
Just so you know ladies, I’m fully vaccinated, so if anyone needs it just hmu 😎
Yeah a chiropractor-caused stroke was my first thought too. Some of those guys go way beyond their remit with what they think they can cure with fancy back cracking.
Everyone knows that sleeping with a vaxxed person transmits the vaccine into your bloodstream. He’s lucky he survived.

Mods be like that.
Hanging out with all the cool people?
…does her son have a cervix?
Cervical Vertebrae. It’s the top 7.
I refuse to believe she knows that
She probably read it in some misinformation article/Facebook rant.
Or she’s just the kind of person who goes to a chiropractor and it’s an applicable term that comes up when they’re bullshitting you.
Antivax, but trans-inclusive. Confusing.
And the chiropractor has a tool long enough to reach it
this happened to me too
edit just the neck pain part friggin jetblue can you believe it i left my neck pillow at home and all they had were crumby inflatable ones i should have sued
crumby
til crummy and crumby are two different words
edit it was crumby though that thing was used for sure
Surely then he should go to a homeopath and buy some very expensive water in which an undetectably tiny amount of the vaccine has been repeatedly diluted. That should unvax him in no time.
Transcript for those who don’t want to try to read through the awful quality of this image
Just had to share. My son, unvaxxed, married a wonderful girl Sept. of 2024. She is vaxxed. They went to Ireland for their honeymoon, and I realize that change of pressure in the plane probably contributed. He came back from the honeymoon sick with Covid. After covid, neck pain that kept him awake at night. My husband suggested that I take him to our chiropractor. After the adjustment he immediately noticed that his vision was not in sync with his brain. Turned out he had a stroke. He’s 29. He is doing fine now, but another chiropractor told me that for all intents and purposes, my son is vaxxed, and that chiropractors are being notified not to do any cervical adjustments on any patient who is vaxxed, and the lawsuits on chiropractors are rolling in, so people need to know
Could you translate it into sane-people-language as well?
I’ll give a stab at it.
Ahem
" i don’t understand modern medicine, it scares me because I’ve been told to be afraid of things that are different and that I don’t understand. I use pseudoscience like chiropractors, who increase the risk of health issues, and I am incapable of seeing that the medical emergency my son went through was not caused by vaccines, but since I’ve been told they are the worst thing possible, all maladies must be ascribed to the vaccine"
Are you sure it wasn’t the airplane pressure or being in an elevator with an Irishman?
Can’t rule anything out, maybe he wasn’t wearing his crystal, of mercury was in retrograde
My deepest hope in my heart of hearts is that the people who don’t believe in scientific evidence, (read: morons), are being fed this shit as part of a eugenics program designed to cull the dumb out of the herd. Therefore… Didn’t discourage these people in their beliefs! Eventually, they’ll fall victim to COVID, (or whatever the next pandemic might be), removing them from the gene pool, allowing Thanos’ plan to come to fruition, and affording us the chance to survive the nightmare our species is currently experiencing.
That’s not how vaccines work though. They rely on herd immunity to truly work.
I wonder who they voted for 🤔

Get vaccinated and don’t go to chiropractors (at least not before going to a real doctor first).
Get vaccinated and don’t go to chiropractors
(at least not before going to a real doctor first).Fixed that for you. There is no situation that going to a chiropractor would be a good idea. They are not medically trained. They are charlatans full stop.
There’s a chiropractor near me who also has a master’s degree in sports medicine. He has being on the medical team for several national teams at multiple Olympic Games. Local doctors refer patients to him and some of them go to him themselves.
I agree that the majority of chiropractors do little good, and sometimes a lot of bad, but certainly in this case he has been able to achieve results that doctors could not.
I have a theory that the “good chiropractors” are just people with physical therapy/sports medicine training that call themselves chiropractors to trick people into seeing someone that knows what they’re doing.
My mom got referred to one for some pain she was having and he (as far as I know) didn’t do any quack shit. She was given advice on better posture. some stretches to do, and some other reasonable stuff.
Exactly, it’s just marketing for them. I bet they see the business opportunity in the number of ppl looking for chiropractors, so they do some course and get certified easily next to their real medical degree. Funnily enough, they probably do a good job due to the e.g. sport medicine stuies and experience, this perpetuating the positive image of the chiropractor “profession”
Your anecdote is nice. But chiropractic is not medicine. It is “alternative”, ie doesn’t actually help. Sports medicine? That’s a real thing that people go to actual college for. Chiropractic? They have their phony schools with their quack medicine and theories. It wasn’t that long ago that the inventor of chiropractic believed everything could be solved through magnets.
Don’t spread misinformation. At best, they provide false hope. And at worst they injure people.
Please don’t put words into my mouth. I never said that chiropractic is safe or useful. I said that this one chiropractor did exceptional work. People should beware of the pseudoscience of chiropractic, not of chiropractors themselves.
Anything to do with adjusting spines is suspect and potentially lethal.
Yeah, if you’re lucky the chiropractor won’t do chiropractic on you. That’s the best case scenario.
And wear a mask on the plane
