In one fell swoop Mercola made a laughing stock out of the supplement industry and anti-vax movement. Two major thorns in the side of big pharma. SMH.

Coincidentally, I've been doing some reading in this area myself recently. It turns out that a think tank research project that helped start off the New Age schtick also had 1) a prototype for stakeholder capitalism in it and 2) a proposal for a legitimacy removal / conferral based strategy to get corporations to follow this new system despite losing profits. The same think tank (SRI intl) pushed for the government to invest in 'psychic' junk like remote viewing. What I found most fascinating was how these supposed social scientists pulled so much from the occult in their paper.

They also darkly hinted that if New Age thinking didn't get people on track with the right reforms, we would be subject to more repressive measures like having our kids drugged, what they called 'happy fascism,' and other forms of coercion, all of which we are clearly seeing now.
