  • This is so obviously not true, how did it get so many upvotes? There are so many counterexamples. The only "fundamental part" of human nature is that humans are adaptable to different environments, including our shitty racist society.

    This is borderline misanthropic too, which is cringe as hell

  • he's clearly suffering from PISD

    Assuming you mean PTSD, there is not nearly enough information here to diagnose OP. Regardless of what diagnosis you, random internet person, have decided to bestow, seeing a qualified physician is a crucial part of mental health workup. Still not sure why you continue to take issue with this.

    This, what OP is going through ? That's normal. As my therapist said, she would have been far more worried if I didn't get the thoughts.

    You have not done a suicide risk assessment and don't know the character or severity of OP's suicidal ideation or other symptoms. He is not you.

    his therapist will tell him to talk to a physician

    A good therapist will, but unfortunately, this does not happen nearly as much as it should. This leads to delayed diagnosis and management of comorbid medical conditions that contribute to feelings of depression. Therapists typically don't have broader medical training outside of mental health and aren't always well versed in the many treatments for mental health disorders.

  • OP says he has had progressively worsening suicidal ideation for 5 months. Seeing a doctor is an incredibly reasonable thing to do in that situation. Not sure why my suggestion upset you so much.

  • If it's been that long and it's still getting worse, you should see your PCP or a psychiatrist if you haven't already. There are many treatments for depression, and a doctor can help identify underlying medical causes that could be contributing.

  • Drug-induced liver injuries rise in the U.S. as supplements grow in popularity: What to know

    Jump

  • That's interesting. To provide a bit of insight, I think it has the rating that it does because it doesn't appear to be overtly harmful (which makes sense if it's just diluted liver), and lower ratings are reserved for dangerous supplements or those with many adverse effects/interactions with other things

  • It's provided by many academic medical centers to their staff as a resource, so I think it's broadly trusted by medical providers. Looks like it's pretty expensive to subscribe, that's too bad.

    It gives a 5/10 for Oscillococcinum. It says there is insufficient evidence to rate its effectiveness for COVID-19, COPD, and influenza and sites several studies on each, giving a summary of their findings. Regarding safety, it says it is "possibly safe when used orally." It's associated with angioedema but otherwise appears to have no adverse effects.

  • Sure, but going over 100% "daily value" does not equal toxic. You generally have to be taking well over 4000 IU vitamin D daily to reach toxic levels.

  • Vitamin D is actually very safe at normal doses despite being fat soluble. You have to be taking huge amounts daily for it to become an issue (which maybe they are idk)

  • Really? Show me where.

    It claims that he bragged about doing so

    The sentence after where it says that... You have ctrl f. Use it.

    that other article doesn't support that claim with any evidence that he pressured them to keep their patent, that he bragged about it, or had any say in the final decision.

    Not sure what "evidence" you want... Bill Gates said it was true himself and did multiple interviews talking about it which are not hard to find. Every article I can find online says the same story - that Oxford initially planned to open license the vaccine and then Gates pressured them to change course.

  • Literally the first search result LINK

    This appears to be just a statement of support for "narrow" patent waviers during the pandemic. This is not the same as open licensing the Oxford vaccine and calling this "backpedaling" is misleading at best.

    Jump

  • This isn't Bill's action, it's Bill's inaction.

    If you had read the article, you would know that he very actively pressured Oxford not to open license the vaccine, leveraging his $750 million donation to the university for vaccine research.

  • The Gates Foundation backpedaled that stance shortly after

    can you provide a source for this?

    Their initial objection was over quality assurance

    Who is he to decide this? He is not an epidemiologist or a public health expert or a leader of a low-resource nation or even a health professional. He's a tech billionaire. This is exactly the problem.

    Many large US companies, including pharmaceutical drug retailers, directly invest in the Gates Foundation Trust, creating a massive conflict of interest which is rarely talked about.
