more facts that you ignore : the Wall Street Journal ran a op-ed this week headlined, “Did Covid Spending Fuel Drug Abuse?” The subheadline offered the answer: “A new study finds a strong correlation between stimulus payments and overdose deaths.” The study linked drug-overdose deaths with the three rounds of federal Covid stimulus payments in 2020 and 2021. They found overdose deaths spiked after each round of government payments, with a ‘synchronous’ increase across states, meaning that local factors like lockdowns or other mitigations weren’t responsible. “The correlation was nearly perfect between the amount of stimulus payments distributed in states and overdose deaths,” the Journal said. “A 10% increase in per capita income from stimulus payments was tied to an 11% increase in overdose deaths.” This human carnage excludes the economic knock-on effects of the stimulus, like massive inflation. In a sane world, people would go to jail —and some would go before firing squads— for a cock-up of this magnitude. At minimum, we would have a frank, if not brutal, conversation about the ‘experts’ who produced the pandemic response. At minimum, they should be quarantined from the rest of society, for everyone’s collective safety. But collective safety only seems to apply when it is aimed at everyone else. Don’t worry, though. We shall never forget. We will hound these rascals to their dying days. news and commentary from Jeff Childers

this is just another rehash (or copy) of your bias , that being the govt's and health authorities and Pharma companies are upright caring citizens doing only what is best to take care of humanity . so many facts have already been printed here and elsewhere that completely destroy that narrative. You take the liberty to reprint the same old lies . Instead of the the truth. Yes, this is one case of black and white : The massive govt corruption (huge payments or incentives from Pharma companies that have had to pay enormous penalties over decades.) The censorship of opposing experts. The unlawful mandates that were outright ridiculous and hurt so many , the farce that paper masks would keep those big bad germs away (proven false, but ignored anyway) , the illegal and immoral attempt to force people to put something in their body that they did not consent to ..... oh, really, this is so tiring to constantly present you with the facts while you just are blind. Read all the old threads...... so much that was ridiculed by arrogant fools has been proven. The real science is now being allowed to speak, as the Dept of Health under Kennedy has gotten rid of the weasels that are the ones you should be hating. You and billions were trampled on like never before ...... and yet you still make excuses for their actions while blasting those who stood up for what is now obviously correct . If you were not so egotistical.... you would do what a few well-known people have admitted , and many more that say that their lives have been ruined. This is not a random few. Forget trying to outsmart people . Just say that you were misled, and you won't be fooled again . Throwing out a few " well, maybes" doesn't do it . You are the Cameroni of the covid reality . No matter how much truth is shown.... you still hold on to your deluded view. "it really is ...safe and effective" ...... "uhhhhh , cause just because all the new studies show how many are sick and dying, with clots and turbo cancers and scores of other serious uptick in health conditions..... uhhh, correlation is not causation " hopeless..... as for the other "theories" you ask about ..... i really don't care if the planet is flat or whatever . As long as someone doesn't tell me i gotta shoot some asteroid into my veins to protect my granma from driving off the edge of the earth ,

i hope Ai is paying you to constantly promote their robot . which one do you use the most ?

and menopause ..............

how many times have you repeated that longgggg and ridiculous "explanation" to combat facts presented by me or others?? always with YOUR opinions , not based on facts.... but rather always your belief that "the consensus" states blah blah blah. You can follow your consensus. But when you do and stick a poison into you because you trusted what proven corrupted sources tell you , and have been proven to tell lies...... then you certainly have made a big mistake ! One that i and all "anti covid vax" did not make. And boy...... i sure do feel great that i did NOT trust the "accepted" narrative .

Another stupid question..... because YOU are the one that lumped them all together ! Stop lumping sheet together with the covid "vax" and that will solve the problem you create. i respond to the topics that i care to address. Not mix and match them so that i can call everyone "anti-establishment"....whatever the hell that means. It does appear that is your go to ad hominem for any discussion that doesn't match your position . You really are so easy to read... like a book without any originality at all .

look in mirror .....richard !

the impossible standards you refer to are actually the wall of bias in your own head which labels any evidence as unworthy . that is why it is useless to even attempt to wake you up. You simply do your childish name calling and refuse the information. i will post just a tidbit...... which Celcius can sneer at along with thou: mRNA injections were presented as localized and transient, staying at the injection site and degrading quickly. Yet, Pfizer and Moderna’s own biodistribution data (obtained via FOIA from Japan and the EMA) proved otherwise: The lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) containing the mRNA did not stay in the shoulder muscle but accumulated heavily in the liver, spleen, ovaries, bone marrow, and heart. This means the spike protein—the immunogenic substance—could be expressed throughout the body, crossing the blood-brain and placental barriers. The spike itself is biologically active and pathogenic—it binds to ACE2 receptors and causes endothelial inflammation, clotting, and mitochondrial damage.

more blabber and AI copy . the brightest people figure things out for themselves . you still stick strictly to the prescribed narrative . A sheep who has gone over the cliff , taken some poison into your and your children's body ....... and must live with it . Hopefully your batch was not one of the really bad ones, though i don't have much sympathy for people like you who call the smart ones names . That is what the stupid people always resort to . Go get your booster .

forget it . you too are hopeless , lost in denial

you always try to push this one in with whatever else you blabber on and on about. you got the covid scam wrong . period. no matter how long you deny it and close your eyes to protect yourself from being wrong.

The problem nowadays....... is TOO MUCH INFO . that's why some amiable sharing of info within a small group can sometimes be helpful .

ALWAYS when one googles these meds those "ugly side effects" are listed as "very rare" . hmmm Good news about Rezum, but only 3 years helpful . wow . My symptoms have lessened significantly with the supplements i take (over a year now ) . If you care to list your supplements .... I'd be interested. (or PM ) 2 months still early.... keep going . I take around 50 mg lycopene daily ....saw palmetto....zinc .... and pumpkin seeds ( a good snack , put in air fryer for a few minutes) .

NOTE: It is NOT my intention to convince or advocate any medical course of action to anyone else . My personal experiences and opinions are only meant as such . Due your own research .Make your own decisions . the video IMO is giving some background and options ( allopathic drugs, supplements, surgical procedures ) . Members here can give their thoughts or experiences . Its not a debate .

Man, i was confused as hell when my symptoms began. I think it's normal . Maybe that's why most just go to the urologist and do what they suggest . Which is based on what they were taught . Nowadays there is a growing number of people not very happy with the results of what the medical association prescribes . I am not talking about a broken arm ... which IMO they do a pretty good job with . Anyway, why don't you write specifically here regarding what prostate or bladder issues you are dealing with . If you're flow is bad, or not controllable, or keeping you up at night 4 or 5 times, or needing to rush to the loo all of a sudden , or ....? well, look up that particular symptom and just get an idea what might be causing it . I also went and paid for a urologist visit , because i think its important to know what they think . (they are definitely not interested in hearing about "alternative medicine" .) But good to know if they think its a bladder or urinary (UTF) problem.... or an enlarged prostate . ( hopefully they look at an ultrasound , in their office, to CONFIRM that the prostate is large. But of course they will not go further unless you pay for a seperate ultrasound that is more specific. As the video opines...... i personally would not have any biopsies done unless i was reallllllly sick

I was very tempted to take a pharma drug , the video mentions two or three "popular" ones . If you think the comments dissing supplements are noteworthy ...... try googling AI : finasteride side effects . And the same for Flomax . AND...believe me, there are other "sources" that are much stronger about the dangers . The temptation comes from knowing that something like Flomax or Silodosin will improve flow within a short time . Finasteride is supposed to "shrink" the prostate... over a much longer time. And some experience very bad side effects , though many probably don't. I solved my most annoying problem (urgency) by simply stopping coffee ! Anyone can google: foods that aggravate BPH / bladder problems. Very helpful . My "journey" / trials/ experiences can not be explained in one post . But particular questions are easier to answer or direct someone to a source ( like the one regarding foods) . Three supplements i DO take are ones you have just mentioned . I take some popular others to deal with ageing .... Vit D (along with K2 ) , Vit C , zinc ..... I recommend, as many "experts " do, not to just randomly pop supplements, change after a week or so, then pop others just because one video says its "life changing" . Start with a few based on some research . The 3 you mention i have taken for over a year (and zinc) specifically for prostate . (and fresh tomatoes/ sauce as well)

I have chosen to eat that way .... for a few reasons. ( energy, muscle loss ( older folks) , digestion, ) Seems to work well for me .

"Hip Hip....... Hooray ! "

We have something called Vietnamese rice paper that the wife uses . are you familiar with that ? what is the "nori" rolls ? and ..... if i don't at least eat eggs i will miss the protein big time (yes, avocado has some... but i really can't afford to lose much weight . bmi around 17 as it is.)

how did you end up with a bad hip ? what is nature telling you to do ? Mine was broken when some brute bumped me in a basketball game and i did a half gainer onto the concrete. Nature didn't help , but a titanium rod and some morphine got it back together. Many "older" folks die within a year or two after that .... Four years later and i have no pain. That doctor is one fellow that i was fortunate to have met ( my first choice was out of town ..... so it just was luck of the draw) , VERY painful, a broken hip .

Can you give us some insights as to what is "a clean diet" ? i don't know what you mean . we only eat fresh foods ..... nothing in packages . Cooked in coconut oil . Lots of eggs (chicken and duck ) right from the farm . we eat meat and chicken and fish . an assortment of veggies . No added sugar. And a little homemade sourdough bread . Emphasis nowadays is protein ! After seventy i noticed in myself and others who had been fit that muscles were getting smaller and skin was sagging. ooops . I seem to have stopped that for now. Of course, the fatties don't seem to have the skin sag problem....... just the belly and boobs

Go see a doctor !

i remember you posting that .... and i believe you . i know you kept the comment short..... but i'm sure that other factors, and actions, and lifestyle, all play into how you control the BPH . If i have to.... i will try the raw food route ! (did you ever get an ultrasound to know the prostate size ? i did one at McCorimick, was 1400 baht plus around 600 for Dr (nice guy, don't have his name offhand) . That was a little over a year ago, and maybe in 6 months or so i will do another just to see if a miracle has happenned, 55

How long ago did you have the op ? (HOLEP ? ) I started my search around 2 years ago , when suddenly it dawned on me that slow flow and urgency were a real problem . Not just, well, getting older. I never gave much thought to the ole prostate, as my PSA was around 1 to 2 ! And the one time a doc put his finger up my butt was enough! I made it through my 60's just fine. If i had been informed .... it would really have helped . Nobody i knew told me the facts of prostate life. And so i post here to possibly help one or two guys get a head start , before major symptoms send you (almost too late) to a urologist. I repeat myself .......the video would have made a difference for me years ago , especially if someone i knew explained what happens. Three friends of mine NEVER told me that they had to have an operation . And of the continuing problems since. So.... i understand that supplements are "confusing". Every youtuber has the "just this one thing will cure you in thirty days" catch line. BS . I mentioned a few of the things i did when i realized i needed to do something . YES, i went to a urologist . 2, in fact . After their 15 minute assessments..... looking at a basic ultrasound in their office.... i was told my prostate was enlarged, it was not gonna get better, and i should take drugs or get an op . I did not do that . i read and i read and i worried and i checked out anecdotal stories here and on other sources. And, then i tried some things ! I will go into some depth as to my experience at a later date ..... IF i don't get too fed up with the thread disrupters .

What are you going on about ? nobody expects anything from those who care to read their posts. You have been asked to stay on topic . Did you watch the whole video ? If not interested than why not just ignore the topic ? If you did watch... what are your specific comments regarding the subject matter ? Instead, you choose to look up something negative about the presenter . And something negative about ...well, almost everything . For what ? Tell us if the content was interesting, informative, or just a waste of time . Tell us how you deal with, or would handle a specific prostate issue... If go to the doctor is YOUR only answer, so be it. That's what freedom of choice is . Please stay on topic .
