I totally agree with what you are saying here. It's funny how people who push science so hard also tell you to trust authority for anything you don't understand. If you were an alien on another planet, would you blindly trust the

If you believe in freedom of speech, you should believe in a company's right to censor. Otherwise you are violating their freedom of speech to not speak. There is no justification to force someone to make available what someone else up

Instead of this, I keep a permanent log of every shell command I ever typed and have a handy alias to keep through it. It also keeps track of the directory a command was run from, so I can limit my search. That way if I ever want to get bac

Screw those widely studied, cheap $1 a pill cures, that they are pushing on people for some unknown reason! I'll go with the pharmaceutic industry approved, patented, $1000+ per pill treatments instead, which are the result of science.

Why not pay everyone $1 million a year, why not $1 billion? The issue is that to have stuff, we need people to make it. If everyone is on the dole, who's going to be making the stuff? The other big problem here is that when people do g

All built by the government by workers who couldn't get any other job! Why not have the government plan everything? We won't even need money anymore! Everyone works to the extent of their ability, for the common good, comrade!

Trump often makes claims about things he wants to draw attention to. Given that HCQ is such a cheap, off patent drug, it stands to reason that he wanted to get it into the public consciousness so it would be looked at with more scrutiny. Wi
