These people literally don’t know what mRNA is, they believe it’s the same thing as DNA because it sounds vaguely similar. It’s good to see actual experts calling him out though! We really need more of this.
I wish I could set aside my convictions and care for others to make money this easily.
Of course the URL has to appeal to the wannabe driving his lifted pickup truck, it has the word warrior in it. You get all these meatheads with delusions of being some sort of Spartan badass because they took 300 as a documentary.
And ironically enough they have more in common with the Persian “soldiers” which are just fodder for their God King.

And are either too stupid or too ashamed to recognize all the thinly veiled homoerotic themes
They probably think 300 means 300lbs…
He selling measles?
Wait until he finds about the big room full of brass pipes feeding oxygen and nutrients to the brain of J Edgar Hoover, from where he is still running absolutely everything.
Elon enters the FBI’s inner sanctum and must solve the Vat’s riddles three in order to prove he’s not a gay communist
I sure hope we get some crazy satirical video game from this time in history
But we already have Fallout
If only he had spent some skill points in Charisma, he’d have the dialogue option to talk Hoover into self destructing, but alas
Is that actually him? Just yesterday I fell for “Kash Patel News” on Twitter, and found his right handle there is Kash_Patel, but this seems to be a different platform.
seems like the platform is called truthsocial, there are links in here:
I would assume if this account was not real he would have sued them for using his name for commercial purposes
I would assume if this account was not real he would have sued them for using his name for commercial purposes
That’s assuming he’s informed and self-aware enough to notice it’s even happening.
Thank you!
With the links I could also scroll though some posts and saw some other people using the handle to congratulate him on his new position. Seems real to me.

Okay, can I die now? I don’t wanna live in this kind of world.
I understand this a fairly lot. But, I cannot wait to die. In fact, that is my only wish. This world causes a lot more hurt than I can handle. I am lonely and don’t know how to fix that or if I am doomed to be that forever. I cannot stop feeling like a failure. All I can do is keep my emotions regulated, which is hard AF and takes all my effort.
Hey man, I’m sorry you’re feeling that way. I can absolutely relate to all of that. The way things are going in the world is certainly making things feel darker than ever.
If these are of any consolation I’d like to share them; they are a few realizations that I’ve come to over time, and that I try to bring myself back to when I start feeling those feelings:
-
I can’t control the world. There are things in motion that I simply won’t be able to affect, set that way long before I ever came along, and that ball will keep rolling long after I’m gone.
-
I’m not a failure for not becoming a millionaire, famous musician, successful executive; for not having the relationship I wanted by this point; for not owning a home yet; or whatever high standards I held my future self to. I know more than that person did, and that person, compared to me today, had a very naive outlook on how things will or ought to be.
-
You are up against the most advanced technologies we have ever created; the most conniving of villains; the worst pollutions; the greatest wage gap in human history; inflation is skyrocketing and unemployment is too; we are in a great recession; you have to date through apps, and we are more isolated than at any time in our history. You are not a failure for struggling against these pressures!
-
I’m going to die one day, but I’m here right now. The ride will end; I don’t need to get off of it early, and I can experience things like awe and wonder while I’m here. And I can help and love people.
I am not a failure for these things. My only fault was ever thinking that I, the world, my life, should be so perfect; and even then, being wrong is expected of us. We are dreamers. Don’t be so hard on yourself, you are doing so great.
-
there are much more productive things that can be done than dying, such as [redacted] or [censored]
I don’t like being alive, I already didn’t, but I like it less now. I crave the afterlife.
I believe in non-linear reincarnation. I hope I come back sometime before technology. Maybe even not as a human. I need a break cycle.
if it’s non-linear, maybe a reincarnation in a parallel universe without those grifters would be to your taste?
“Warrior Essentials”
“Spike Gangsters”
Do the incels he’s trying so hard to market to understand how stupid these names are?
Using several of them at once is even funnier - they didn’t feel confident enough with just one, and got “Manly man’s sigma razor spike gamgster king warrior essential basics”

I’d say that’s more stoner dwarf than fuck boi.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha This guy just discredit any future movie involving an FBI agent for the next 75 years. We knew america had a under-education problem, but man you guys are something.
I guarantee he doesn’t actually believe this shit. He’s just a grifter grifting just like the rest of the Whitehouse circus cast. The only exception might be Robert F. Kennedy Jr. That freak show might actually believe the shit he spews.
Germany just had a sweeping far right election, and Argentina has had a libertarian at the helms for a bit now. A ton of south Asian countries have had hardcore conservative views for a while now, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Canada shifts right next election. There are basically few corners of the earth where populism/right wing ideology isn’t growing and expanding. This isn’t an American education system problem, it’s world wide. The political elites in your country just have you convinced that it’s America that’s now the problem, which then creates a new wave of populism in your country. It’s a self eating snake.
Not that I’m disagreeing that our slapping of allies isn’t problematic. This is just something that is clearly growing everywhere and the people of Lemmy love saying “America bad” as the same exact shit is happening in your country. If you’re an American expand your news beyond our shores. The grass is unfortunately turning to shit everywhere. We’re in for a rough decade together.
Although you have to admit, it is near impossible to get such a perfect dream team of scammers elsewhere.
Germany just had a sweeping far right election
you can’t say 20% a ‘sweeping’. The situation is worse at other places. And thanks to true multi party democracy, AfD probably won’t be in government anyway.
I hope so for Germanys sake. A 9% increase from the last election, for a party that’s 12 years old… that’s pretty sweeping to me. Not to mention that it’s more so the southern parts of Germany that have an even stronger percentage of AfD support.
Again, I’m not wanting a right shift for these countries, but it’s become clear that things are. We could stick our head in the dirt and say it’s only America, but that wouldn’t be true, and that’s what I was getting at with my comment.
Party is new, ideology is old.

The US is literally in control of fascist now, it’s not nearly as bad in Germany, not that it’s good but there is a big difference
If we’re saying things are “not that it’s good” then it sounds like there is a rightward shift. Which was my point. America isn’t alone in this trend. To act like it is due to some lack of education was the original OPs point and I simply disagree with that based on the current trends of countries around the world.
I mean that is a fair point, but AfD got 20% of the vote and are likely not getting in the coalition, proportional representation and all that
Thanks, I’m hopeful for Germany that they can keep the AfD at bay. I’m hopeful that Americas former allies make enough of a turn on us that the people here realize we messed up and I’m hopeful if we return to decency here that we didn’t burn up all of our credibility. A lot of Americans aren’t Trump supporters, but certainly there is a decent amount that is and it disgusts me.
Let’s be clear here, the right extremist party got over 20% which is really bad for sure, but the mid-right party rules out working with them in a coalition no matter what. That’s rather different from where the rest of the republicans and many democrats fall over themselves to do whatever the lunatic fringe says. Further, the American billionaires are strong influencers of these trends in other countries. The core of the disease is the USA even when there are symptoms everywhere.
The Swedish mid-right also ruled out working with the far-right. Until they had to to gain government control.
I agree it’s a huge concern and I also absolutely don’t trust the CDU, and especially Merz, as far as I can throw them. However I’m just saying that the situation is not identical to the USA, there are some points of difference.
The mid-right said they wouldn’t work with them, but as we have seen that means absolutely nothing. I wouldn’t be surprised if the
SDPCDU broke that and started working with AfD. Maybe it’s just me being cynical.I’m not going to disagree that our power projection from the US isn’t a power boost to other right wing governments. I just think that to claim this is solely a result of poor US education when we can see this happening elsewhere in so called better educated countries means it isn’t really the predictor they’re claiming it to be.
The mid-right said they wouldn’t work with them, but as we have seen that means absolutely nothing. I wouldn’t be surprised if the
SDPCDU broke that and started working with AfD.I’m also very worried about that, but it’s another point of difference - there were historically enormous protests (tens to hundreds of thousands per city, well over a million total, more than a percent of Germany’s total population) several times recently because CDU looked like it was slightly cooperating with them with an informal and unbinding agreement about immigration. These protests had the support of the churches, the sports leagues. Various senior government figures support outright banning the AfD. It would not be as easy for them as in the USA, where everyone immediately capitulates.
But yeah I agree it’s a political difference and not just about “education”, you’re totally right about that.
Didn’t the German election end well? AfD isn’t in charge, and the winner is pro-Ukraine, anti-Russia, and pro-EU independence of the US.
It depends on the coalition that gets formed, does the conservative party go with the center left party for 4 years of stagnation or break their word and work with the fat right.
They have done the later already on emigration, passing a non-binding resolution (with only one conservative vote against) and narrowly losing on the second round because their own members of parlament didn’t show up to vote.AfD walked away in second, but jumped by nearly 9% over the last federal election. That’s a huge gain in momentum.
Last I saw (as in, a few mins ago), all the major players were refusing to talk to AfD.
Argentina has had a libertarian at the helms for a bit now.
milei is not a libertarian, he’s a generic hard right conservative.
You mean a libertarian? Yeah we know. The dude is currently wrapped up in a memecoin scandal is oeak libertarian dude
If you mean US flavor “libertarian”, you’re going to need to specify that
Idk what else you would mean by libertarian. The original (marxist) meaning is long gone and all the right-wing larpers are just as bad as Milei if not worse. There exists no libertarian who isn’t just an authoritarian fascist.
Idk, a quick search shows that the President of Chile, apparently, is a left wing libertarian. Unless he’s also secretly an authoritarian fascist?
I guess nowadays every political ideology ever is just a facade for yet another right wing authoritarian shithole.
No, libertarians are on the right, assholes etc but we need to be fair to them to expose milei’s lies.
He’s anti abortion and is not going to be introducing any new freedoms to Argentina. The libertarians claim they are pro abortions, drugs and anything else… For a price. And anything…
pls get me out of here
Refugee Application: Yes, belonging to my home country risks personal harm
Sorry, some of us did what we could…
Out of curiosity, I read one of their scientific studies on the website. The first one I read was a literature review (no tests were actually done) that said “one study says the supplement does nothing and another two sources say the study was done wrong so it could maybe be beneficial???” Wow. Such strong evidence.
Barely anyone would go to the same extent as you to seek evidence. The target market are more than happy to see any citations at all.
Shedders? Do these people think vaccines are contagious?
Yes, pay attention to mention of “shedding”. They think that vaccination causes the PT in question to shuck it off as though they were Pigpen from Charlie Brown cartoon.
they should wear a mask, so they don’t catch it
preferably a solid one
It’s not even applicable to most vaccines.
Basically polio spreads through poop, and this is your shedding. Oral Polio Vaccine does this as it’s a weakened form of the polio virus and exhibits the same spread and provides vaccination indirectly to others. The US uses E-IPV, which is inactive and harmless and doesn’t have this spread.
You’ll only find OPV being used in countries with very inadequate medical access as it can be administered orally(hence the name). Only downside is that if you are very immunocompromised, there is a non zero chance you get polio and a chance you suffer from paralysis.
Flu vaccines, covid vaccine, literally anything else doesn’t have this “shedding”. It’s literally one vaccine that isn’t even administered in the united states.
I wish people understood the differences between types of vaccines more. I despise the “vaccines good” Vs “vaccines bad” thinking. Each of them are separate treatments and like any medication have pros/cons for each individual recieving them. I think a lot of people learn about Jenner and the smallpox vaccine and assume all other vaccines work the same way.
Yes.
Well, the grifters don’t. The multitude of morons they’re scamming do.
Vaccines can shed (sometimes we have to add that as an seondqry endpoint to clinical trials), but not even remotely in the way these idiots are saying.
Stupid as it sounds, yes
https://www.politifact.com/article/2021/may/06/debunking-anti-vaccine-hoax-about-vaccine-shedding/
Were you assuming these people understood even the basics of what a vaccine is?
Gotta love people who don’t want to take a vaccine that was designed by the absolute top experts in the field and extensively tested, but have no problem popping pills some grifter on the interweb sold them.
“you believed my medical lies once. you’ll fall for it again!”
Why did all the replies get removed?
Modlog says “argument nuke.” But it doesn’t look like either of the two users who’s argument was nuked were being uncivil about it.
Once again: Your job as mod isn’t to shut down arguments. It’s to keep them from devolving into insult slinging or rule-breaking behavior.
It did get uncivil into insults. There were personal attacks.
Correct
Probs because the dude legit runs the FBI now?
