The earth actually orbits around the sun; not the other way around.
Maggots do not simply arise from inside spoiling meat; they hatch as pupae from eggs deposited on the meat by flies.
Women's reproductive systems do NOT "shut down" during "true" rapes to prevent conception.
By definition, ALL islands are "surrounded by water".

The vaccines now being used by most sane people to combat covid are the safest and most effective ever devised----period.

Although we now know that the major vector for the virus is air I still (out of now an almost 2 year habit) put my delivery packages under the UV light I bought for this purpose.
I used to wipe everything I bought too, but I skip that these days.
Ivermectin was very effective in vitro in killing SARS-COV-2... but at a concentration (or dosage amount) that is toxic to humans. Again, in vitro (a petri dish) and not in vivo.
And we shouldn't denigrate Ivermectin all that much, it has been a wonder drug in the developing world at eliminating various parasitic disease in both people and animals.

If they paraded their degrees and wealth and family connections, they'd be considered the elite of the elite.
Instead they act like total hucksters - part of the madding crowd. Harding and Shakespeare would have had a great time with this period in history.

At least power and knowledge still TEND to be correlated in this country, but the lazy-minded people who only want to burn their calories on the pursuit of power will simply complain about the more knowledgeable as "elitist" for the sake of their attempted power grabs.
