This is a different interview with her, a little more technical, less politics.
2024 Presidential Election
- Thread starter PF5
- Start date
I was ok with his content. I think he made some good points from what I watched. Focusing on improving health through proper diet and exercise vs pills is great and pretty common sense. There are questions big pharma needs to answer and it's frustrating that the people who should be asking those questions don't even know what to ask. Ill have to go back and look at the tweet you posted but I don't understand how you fabricate medical research. I don't think the FDA just approves drugs willy nilly and the scientific community isn't one to just accept anything as a complete fact just because so I don't see how a bunch of research was fabricated.
Again though when he said Tucker it made me question everything he said. I didn't question it being on Rogen and I wouldn't question him having an interview on the cable news network of your choice. But saying he's on the same page as medias biggest charlatan makes me question his credibility. Might be the same as someone else saying it about whatever media they don't like but we both know there is a huge difference between the Wall Street Journal and Tucker Carlson.
Thanks for posting this. I’m going to give it a listen sometime this weekend.

But taking your expose to Alex Jones, Mike Adams and other discredited conspiracy theory nuts and fear porn artists only destroys your credibility. Going to Joe Rogan isn't doing much better since he is friends with Alex Jones. Jones has praised Rogan before for starting to come around to his nonsense, insanity and paranoia. At least Rogan comes forth as more rational and considerably less bizarre and hysterical.

No, the FDA does not approve drugs willy-nilly. The point is that we are using drugs to attempt to fix things that are better fixed by other methods. And we are doing that because that is where the incentives are.
This guy was trying to get his message out and was being denied by all media. The first media outlet to even let him on was Tucker Carlson. Because he mentioned that is what happened that makes you doubt his message? He isn't spreading Tucker Carlson's message. He is spreading his own anywhere someone will listen.
I guess I have a question for you. This guy states he was a never-Trump and was trying to discuss this and got no response from the media to what you are calling "common sense." If it is common sense but is for certain not occurring, why was he denied by the media that should have embraced a pharmaceutical lobbyist telling us the issues occurring? Why did a "never-Trump" person have to go to Tucker Carlson and say that while Trump says "stupid sh1#" he is the only politician taking this in? Would you rather he just sit in silence since the media ignored him and his only responses were Tucker and Trump?
So, what do you do when Rogan is who will listen to your message and none of the media will? Just sit in silence and allow it to continue?
It was very easy. This is a Western blot. It is literally ink like lines in a gel matrix.
The researcher simply copy/pasted old western blots in a paper labelled to appear that he did new work and had a new finding. Without doing the Western Blot over again there would be no way to know that it didn't happen and there is a basic level of trust that has to happen in science.

I'm actually baffled by anyone that that just straight up craps on Rogan. The guy opens up his platform to all sides of everything and gets a lot of all of his interviews. The only reason I think folks have issue with that show is if you listen long enough, whatever beliefs a person may have, they will eventually be challenged.

I'd rather them continue to find other methods of getting his message out. If you can't get ABC to cover your story, you don't run to the weekly world news. It's 2024, there are a million ways to get internet famous.
That being said, the more I look at it the more questions I have. Some of their stuff makes alot of sense to me and some of it (particularly in relation to vaccination) I really question.
I question some of the political motivation here as well. He says he's a never Trumper, but he did intern at Heritage. If he comes from a right wing anti government ideological background, that's going to generate a bias in how we views the world. I'm not saying he's wrong or I don't buy what he's selling, just that it's a reason to give pause before you jump right in.

Both-sidesism debunked? Study finds conservatives more anti-democratic, driven by two psychological traits
A new study has found that conservatives exhibit stronger anti-democratic tendencies than liberals, driven by psychological traits like authoritarianism and social dominance orientation.

Color me not surprised. Study found both parties are not equally undemocratic.

Which campaign has the most billionaire donors?
If I'm guessing it's about a 50/50 split with many of them donating to both.
Kamala Harris Has More Billionaires Openly Backing Her Than Trump (But Many Are Staying Silent)
The likes of Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates have shied away from offering endorsements like their ultrarich counterpart Elon Musk, but they have shared some thoughts about the two candidates.
www.forbes.com
I thought that was an interesting question. I would have thought the same as you. Forbes says out of the ones from their list that are publicly supporting a candidate it's 76 - Harris 49 - Trump. Makes sense. The Biden/Harris has been really good to billionaires not as good to the middle class.
Two questions I’ll probably regret…
1. Not sure you can draw the conclusion that Biden/Harris policies toward middle class have any impact on whom the billionaires back.
2. Are you saying their policies have been more beneficial to billionaires than Trump’s? He lowered corporate tax rates from 35% to 21%. That expires in 2025 and Harris said she won’t extend it, but would raise it to 28%.
If you want to go into the details of specific policy we could and there will probably be a lot of disagreement....Covid is the big trigger here and the debate on the handling of that is a whole other ball of wax. When I say it's been a better 4 years for billionaires it has been. It's been a better 4 years for 500thousandaires as well. Inflation impacts lower income households the most....market gains benefit billionaires more than low net worth households. I make a good wage and invest some.....it was hard to find a loser in the market....I make enough to still have money after eggs and gas double.....lots of people don't. The merits of the way the economy has been handled can be debated but markets and banks were protected more than consumers.....businesses got PPP loans they are never gonna pay back teachers/firemen/service industry/etc got 2k. A billionaire get their loans completely different than a say 150K combined income family buying a car....the rate rise hits them way harder. Agree/disagree with what was done I think everyone will agree something had to be done. That result widened the wealth gap. It's been a great 4 years to have working/disposable capital....If it was close to tight you have more month than money now that life is 20+% more expensive.
PPP and stimulus started under Trump so I'm not laying everything at the feet of this administration.....the pain of the policy results of both Trump's last year and Biden/Harris showed up and stayed in the last few years. I don't think anyone actually likes either of these two. People are choosing the lessor of two evils in their eyes. If you are the 150K family above and you used to have money at the end of every month and now you are having to put life on a credit card (and numbers show that's happening) you can handle a lot more of Trump's crap and have less tolerance for Harris' joy campaign. If you are a billionaire and have been riding this market wave it hasn't been as bad and you see more of Trump's lunacy and 4 more years of the same just means you make another billion in the market.
The PPP ended in May 2021, 4 months after Biden entered office.
I'm curious what you feel Biden did to cause inflation and what he could have done to prevent it?
Wow -- this was weird. Trump wrapped up his "town hall" in Oaks, Pennsylvania, after just a few questions, and right after he said he would take a few more questions. More music then played while Trump stood around on stage. Deeply bizarre scenes.
