What are you talking about? This has been well covered in the news and discussed in multiple HN threads. Just a few recent examples in the news: https://www.axios.com/2022/11/15/ftz-crypto-bankman-fried-democrats-midterms-campaigns https://www.axios.com/2022/11/15/ftz-crypto-bankman-fried-de... https://fortune.com/crypto/2022/11/15/politicians-sam-bankman-fried-donations-ftx-charity/ https://fortune.com/crypto/2022/11/15/politicians-sam-bankma... https://fortune.com/crypto/2022/11/15/politicians-sam-bankman-fried-donations-ftx-charity/ https://fortune.com/crypto/2022/11/15/politicians-sam-bankma... https://cointelegraph.com/news/sbf-has-been-a-significant-donor-in-us-midterm-elections https://cointelegraph.com/news/sbf-has-been-a-significant-do... https://nypost.com/2022/11/14/sam-bankman-fried-broke-crypto-bank-for-dems/ https://nypost.com/2022/11/14/sam-bankman-fried-broke-crypto...

  That's a straw man, I didn't say it wasn't getting coverage.

    I don't think a heavily reported on and discussed story meets any normal definition of "suppressed".

      Quite a shallow perspective: we'd have to critically think and discern, analyze the various narratives of each article, to see what narratives/talking points are being pushed by different sources, and which are being avoided being spoken of. Your response is akin to only citing studies funded by arguably bad actors with monetary ties to the pharmaceutical industry and the status quo establishment (captured by big pharma lobbying), while simply avoiding and immediately/automatically dismissing the 93 Ivermectin studies that in total show an average 83% rate of prophylaxis; as a preventative-proactive medication, if the protocol is providing an adequate dose, early enough, and for long enough - those 3 variables of which in all studies showing no efficacy for Ivermectin against COVID aren't using the best practices determined by frontline doctors who experimented to determine the correct, minimum protocol(s). In fact "highly reported on" is a necessary tactic in order to try to capture and flood the search engines with articles, using the same keywords, in order to add noise and make it difficult for people to find contradicting narratives to the ones the establishment who's captured these systems wants you to see.
