1. Thank you!!!!

Again, for another great piece of information.

This was very important.

2. I thought conspiracy theories belonged in Creative Speculation.

4. Could you post a summary for those of us

Who have better things to do than watch a nine minute video?

6. Is there a website behind the video?

I only watched 30 seconds of the video before I hit fallacy overload.

7. The OP might know.

8. I don't know who's the behind the video, and I'm not going to lose nine minutes of life watching it.

However, the individual who posted it appears to be a "truther." Check his youtube page. It's classic.

9. LOL, I just looked through his channel's video list

It's a smorgasbord of truther, chemtrail, anti vax, the-government-is-poisoning-us, and perpetual motion machine CT videos. With some Jesse Ventura and Ron Paul BS thrown in for good measure.

I think I'm actually stupider after reading the comments on his channel.

10. Have you actually watched this video, OP?

It's a complete disaster, full of conspiracy theories and misinformation. Why are you posting this here? There is almost zero factual information contained in it. I'm sorry I wasted the 9 minutes of my life watching it.

[Gregorian]

11. Would someone explain what is "conspiracy theory" about this video?

Since I am the only one on this thread who thought it was valuable, and there are half a dozen others furiously opposing the validity, I feel a little bit odd.

[sense]

15. Ok, now I watched it. (posted before I did, same conclusion)

Cholesterol is extremely necessary for life and we've absolutely been fed a load of crap about it. It's not what causes or contributes to heart disease and the arbitrary "normal" levels have been set by big pharma to sell statins, which are poison and have more than 200 side effects. Then pharma can prescribe more drugs for all the side effects..... We all need to wake up.

Since the 70's we've been sold out by our government and what used to be legitimate sources of health information, like the ADA, AHA. Here's a good video from a swedish doctor, telling the truth. Yes, it's long, but it will not be a waste of anyone's time.

16. Huh. The op has been banned.

Your post just confirms what I thought of the video. It doesn't support what everyone has said on the thread. They all seem quite certain of their stance on the weakness of the video.

I'm busy with some MIT engineering lectures right now. No time for anything else. Besides, I'm in the best shape one can be in. Diet, physique. I just thought the op's posts were always helpful. I'm even using an array of supplements she recommended. Now I have to reevaluate things. I'm not convinced this member should have been banned.

17. I'm not normally one for grave dancing but...

I'm doing a little jig right now. And I see it happened on Christmas Eve day. That was a nice present.

18. Shhhhhhh.

Unfortunately, sock puppets likely remain.
