1. Hydrogen

Peroxide isn't bleach.

Bleach is made with a solution of ~3-6% sodium hypochlorite which is mixed with small amounts of sodium hydroxide, hydrogen peroxide, and calcium hypochlorite.

Technically there is hydrogen peroxide in bleach but it isn't the main ingredient.

Wish we could find a way to shut up those 12 wastes of skin.

Maybe murder or false advertising?

2. In my world hydrogen peroxide was fuel

The torpedo men told me to stay the hell away from the H2O2 tanks. It was used on certain steam driven torpedoes on the WWII boats.

I remember being taught to feel the H2O2 pipe for warmth to determine if it it had ignited Thanks for the warning Chief.

3. He's got the chemical ratio of household bleach wrong but that's NOT, after all, the subject.

It's unfortunate and depressing how much anecdotal crap is passed off as "news" but the fact is that these guys are sharing information about how a small cadre of people are responsible for most of the intentionally false info on the inter-webs. THAT is eye-opening stuff for someone who hasn't given it any thought. Perhaps it may inspire a few folks to re-examine their thinking and how it's shaped by mis-information.

I think these presenters deserve acknowledgement at some level above murdering them and their wastage of skin is probably no more felonious than than most.

4. Guy with a BBC accent exposing disinfo gets it wrong, himself.

This is what happens when someone with no scientific or medical knowledge reports on either. He's thinking of hair bleach. They're very different.

Peroxide is used externally to flush bacteria out of infected wounds. Then the area is flushed with water or saline to prevent tissue damage. Peroxide kills healthy tissue along with bacteria and infected tissue. Breathing it in a nebulizer would massively damage the lungs. What the fuck are they thinking? ARE they thinking?

Peroxide will also get fresh blood out of clothing, which shows you just how toxic the stuff is.

My ral complaint with this video and others like it is that only the two richest asshole propagandists were named. They all need to be named and with photos. People need to know who to avoid and where to avoid them. Otherwise, he's just looking for clicks, just like Zuckerberg.

(I knew Kennedy had a big bug up his ass and the money to show it off to the world, but I hadn't realized he was a bigot. Someone needs to break it to him ungently that we're all the same species)

5. Yeah. Only getting two is annoying, as if it's some big secret or privacy violation when really the

news show is lazy.

Anyway, here's a link that describes them and gives better numbers.

I also made an alphabetized list yesterday, but could only find their photos from RW media sources, so maybe you can check them out on Google Images. I've seen a few; they're a stylish bunch lol.

6. Whoa, thans!

There is no way any of these vermin should be hiding behind the anonymity of the net.

Thanks for the exposure here, I'll be bookmarking for future reference.

I'm hoping for one hell of a class action lawsuit over this stuff in the future. The campaign has been click and cynical.

7. YW! Check out the article's whitewashed descriptions about them. Then Wikipedia.

They're batshit.

[Warpy]

8. Wikipedia wasn't very kind to any of them!

Yay, Wikipedia! Their editors are still on the ball.

Funny how they're all called "media infulencers" instead of carnival barkers and bullshit peddlers.

There are 3 DOs and two MDs on the list. It has always been astonishing to me that medically trained people aren't doing the appropriate reading on things that are out of their field before they start spewing bullshit that hurts people.

I really think they should be opened up to lawsuits.
