Rachel's talking about how 70% of calls to Mississippi's poison control are for ivermectin.

[femmedem]

Why ivermectin, the horse-worming drug? She played clips of Hannity, Laura Ingraham and Tucker Carlson pushing ivermectin as a covid cure.

As she points out, they won't trust a vaccine but they'll go take a horse de-wormer that they bought at the feedstore.

1. I put on Rachel for 2 minutes and

she follows the ivermectin with that orange sack of $hit talking about hydroxychloriquin and withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Please, please, please, can we never have to see that miserable, lying, pus bag again? I had to turn it off.

[relayerbob]

20. Yep, my wife turned it on, as when he came on, I went to work on a project

If I never hear that whiny, lying voice again, it'll be too soon

[bdamomma]

2. they want to

see their viewers die?

[femmedem]

3. Now she's talking about how TFG sabotaged the visa process for our Afghan allies

Senior officials saying the visa system was deliberately broken so that the Afghan allies would be stranded when we left.

How I hate TFG.

[Haggard Celine]

4. I'm so sick of all this stupidity.

Natural Selection, do your thing.

[Progressive Jones]

5. Thank You. nt

[Joinfortmill]

7. Amen

[nolabear]

15. I'm sure their children will appreciate that.

[smirkymonkey]

30. +1000

[hadEnuf]

6. Poison Control should hang up on the assholes.

[IronLionZion]

8. Folks always said the South will rise again

people misunderstood what that meant

[SMC22307]

9. Who pushed Ivermectin... politician, FUX newsbunny, the pillow guy?

I can't keep all the idiocy straight.

[ShazzieB]

18. According to the o.p. Fux Noise was definitely involved.

Rachel played clips of Hannity, Laura Ingraham and Tucker Carlson pushing ivermectin as a covid cure. I don't know who else may be pushing it, but I doubt it's just them.

10. I posted about this latest abomination last week:

Farm Supply Stores Are Running Short on a Horse Dewormer/Pseudoscience COVID Cure - Slate

“The hardship comes when you run to your farm supply store and they don’t have [ivermectin] on the shelves anymore because of all of this.”

11. Meh! Ivermectin is so July! For real protection, eat Tide Pods then fill your ears and nose

with Preparation H!

Also be sure to check back in two weeks for the September update on how not to be one of those doomed people who will die horribly because they foolishly listen to public health experts instead of believing anonymous internet posters

[CanonRay]

12. I buy all my medical needs at Tractor Supply!

[ShazzieB]

19. In my neck of the woods, it's Farm & Fleet! 🤣

[liberal_mama]

13. In this pandemic group I'm in, they are literally squeezing tubes of horse dewormer (apple flavored)

into their mouths and discussing it.

[Alice Kramden]

17. Holy crap

This is beyond the beyond

[liberal_mama]

22. I know! This is one of the craziest things I've seen! One guy said he bought 24 tubes of it at the

feed store. They won't get vaccinated, but they are ingesting worm medication for livestock?

[eShirl]

26. these are the people we're supposed to reason with

[bucolic_frolic]

14. Maybe it will clear their brains of worms

[Pas-de-Calais]

16. Press 5 if you have taken ivermectin

You have indicated you have taken ivermectin
Press 5 if you have taken ivermectin
Put it on a loop

[AverageOldGuy]

21. Another person pushing Ivermectin is . . .

Dr. Robert Warren of Williamsburg, VA is promoting Ivermectin.

[aggiesal]

23. More Covidiots! Tired of them. n/t

[jeffreyi]

24. My experience with using ivermectin with horses

Is that it can be hard on them...they don't feel good for a day or so. I doubt a human taking ivermectin feels very good, either.

[femmedem]

29. It causes potentially lethal liver damage.

As crazy and stupid as it is to be ingesting it, I can understand why people did after hearing again and again on their news station that it is being used worldwide as a covid cure.

[Rhiannon12866]

25. Here's the video for those who missed it:

[empedocles]

31. Incredible

[Champp]

27. Republicans poisoning Republicans by pimping bad crap

stupid, evil, or both?

[alphafemale]

28. How can encouraging people to ingest something dangerous and possibly deadly not be criminal?

I'd think they are opening themselves up to huge lawsuits. At the very least.

Their defense will be what it always is.

It is obviously satire and entertainment and no rational person would take it seriously.

They should be made to run a crawl stating that the shows are satire and entertainment.
