To be such a stickler for scientific consistency all the way through and end with “feels weird”?

I love your work and hope you never stop doing it but would like to point out one thing.

If we are to believe the vast swaths of testimonials found in comments sections to youtube videos, various uncensored forums and twitter alternatives and occasional word of mouth we would conclude that a great many people are being saved from illness and even death by the application of horse paste and other veterinary forms of ivermectin.

In instances where people can’t fill a script even if they can get one this option is not only viable but far cheaper than the fda human approved version. Investigation into the inactive ingredients, of the specific brands I have looked at anyway, reveals nothing but fda approved food additives.

Not tha fda approval means diddly squat other than a series of expensive hoops were jumping through.

In the otherwise excellent Darkhorse podcast with Dr. Kory, I agree that suppression of Ivermectin is probably not the crime of the century. The other point I disagree with Weinstein is his thought (repeated in later podcasts as well) that we should simply buy out big pharma. Then, supposedly, their perverse interests in profits being satisfied, they will allow treatments/preventatives such as IVM free reign.

There are obvious ethical reasons to oppose such a view. It hardly seems to be the best way to deal with kunlangeta - it will only encourage/embolden them even further. And how long are these payments to pharma to continue? It certainly will not be a one time deal - big pharma is looking into vaccinating everyone worldwide every year (or more frequently even!) with booster shoots.

Furthermore, Weinstein seems to view the blocking of IVM narrowly, as mainly a big pharma phenomenon, with big tech simply doing their bidding. I'm not at all sure this is the case - if you look at those who profited from the pandemic, it includes pharma, tech, and ominously, the big banks and bond holders through trillions of dollars of 'stimulus payments' that we tax payers will pay interest on now, and maybe the total sum in the future.

I'm seriously doubt we small guys have enough in money in total to cover these enormous sums.

I'm not exactly sure what is going on, but I doubt it can be fully explained without involving the banking/the global financial system.

In that lens, if we take into account that all money is debt, (either loans from banks or bond holders) 'they' already own all the money that we can supposedly pay them back with anyway...
