i could explain about what scientific method is, what makes a piece of research valid, how to judge the meaning and validity of a result. so you can filter out all the contradictory science and get to the truth. but doesn’t sound like you’d be interested.

What are your qualifications?

Are you qualified to determine a fraudulent study?

Have you read any meta-analysis that suggests that promoting Ivermectin (+ anything) for COVID treatment has any actual benefit?

The notion that I'm against science is ridiculous - I'm against unqualified individuals spreading misinformation, that's it.

that's not a real qualification you can get. like a certificate of fraudulent study identifying?

i do really know what you mean. i understand what you're trying to say. but it's so off topic and such a big topic. let's leave that argument for another day.

The notion that I’m against science is ridiculous

okay nevermind then. you gave off that impression. I'd love to talk seriously with one of these people, but either they are hard to find or they don't admit to it.
