They cancelled the testing because it's not tested enough. MAGA brainworm logic will literally be the death of us all.

Long term safety testing is different from efficacy testing.

But it sounds like there will no money for any types of testing.

They’ve been lying about the reason the whole time. They don’t give a fuck how tested it is or what the results are, they want it off the market for ideological reasons. Right wing crunchy fash might honest to god be worse than the Evangelicals.

I watched the Evangelicals slowly turn into crunchy fascists, it was fucken bizzare. While I don't know the source the first sign I saw was Kent Hovind pushing "Vitamin B17" also known as de facto cyanide, basically it is a compound that breaks down into cyanide in the gut.

I think the “brainworm” is just conservatism… It attacks the education centre of the host and, over decades, renders them extremely dumb and pliable to its will.

Brain damage (concussion, parasites, etc.) has shown to lead to more conservative tendency.
