  1. “You are not a horse. You are not a cow,” the FDA said about using the drug meant for livestock that hosts on Fox have been pushing.🤣🤣

    1. @jj welsh75 That isn’t entirely true, first they were not destroying democracy but protesting what they believed was a fraudulent election, it got out of hand and they deserve to be punished, but it did not begin as an attempt to usurp the government. Second, they were hardly innocent, but they did not deserve fear for their lives. Regardless of all that, how does seeking a person with a certain belief or opinion to wish the, harm or death make it right? Aren’t Democrats or Liberals supposed to accept everyone of varying beliefs? We as Americans are supposed to be looked upon as the freest nation in the world, right now we’re the laughing stock. I wish we could all just get along and have civil conversations. Peace and love to all.

    2. @bruno alves Ah. I just noticed you’re copying and pasting this comment all over the place, because troll troll troll troll troll.

  2. The side effects sounds like the average Republican behavior. how long has this been going on?

    1. @Ben Pierce and a small number are who actually believes those things. I want you and your party to f off and stop destroying my country, or I will make ot free and prosperous for my children by any means. =>

    2. You know your being lied to. This is just in response of the Japanese government coming out and saying that Ivermectin has succesfully treated people with the virus and that they suggest the use of it. They provided datanof their research. Im addition, they mentioned that they found a magnetic substance in the Moderna shot. Look it up for yourself of you dont believe me.

    3. It’s been going on since before the TX gun advocate shot and killed her 19 yr old daughter on their front lawn.

    1. @Sarah F. 4.2 Want more? While you spit lies Israel is on phase 3 for Ivermectin. Can you use your 2 braincells to google or want me to post source?

    2. Better stop taking ibuprofen, they made it for dogs
      Also India and Japan are both using ivermectin to treat it, very successfully, and you could verify this for yourself with a simple internet search
      Keep drinking the kool-aid instead though

    3. @bruno alves Is this what you is bragging about:
      On day 6, 34 out of 47 (72%) patients in the ivermectin arm reached the endpoint, compared to 21/ 42 (50%) in the placebo arm (OR 2·62; 95% CI: 1·09-6·31). In a multivariable logistic-regression model, the odds of a negative test at day 6 was 2.62 time higher in the ivermectin group (95% CI: 1·06–6·45). Cultures at days 2 to 6 were positive in 3/23 (13·0%) of ivermectin samples vs. 14/29 (48·2%) in the placebo group (p=0·008).

    4. @Muad’Dib In March, the World Health Organization advised that ivermectin should only be used to treat patients within clinical trials.

      It said data from 16 trials involving 2,407 subjects showed that evidence on whether the drug reduces mortality or quickens improvement was of “very low certainty.”

      Japan’s health ministry’s COVID-19 treatment guidelines revised in July places ivermectin in a category of drugs whose efficacy and safety have not been established.

    1. I need some more hallucinations with joey at the wheel already feels like the worst trip of my life 😉

    2. Don’t recommend Ivermectin.. Vax- enlarged hearts, Bell’s palsy , death. Vaxed folks still spreading and also shedding. Less resistance to SARS- CoV2 than folks who’ve recovered.
      HQL – increases survival rate by 80%.

  3. The symptoms almost reads as a list of how to spot a current Republican “confusion, hallucinations etc

    1. As a republican I can say that is true. We are confused, and wondering if we are hallucinating. “Are all these people really wearing a piece of paper on their face? Do they think paper will act as an air filtration system? They do realize viruses are microscopic, right?

  4. Taking the “Sheeple” thing too far. Side effects of watching FOX may include brain damage … or death

    1. It’s not Fox. Type Ivermectin in the YouTube search bar. Tons of videos. Even Dr.’s saying you should take it.

    2. @Bruh Ben is the “darling conservative”, but he’s not a conservative, he’s progressive. He’s been lying to you, because he serves the handful of people that actually benefit from conservatism, like Charles Koch. How is Ben progressive? I mean it’s hard not to be, our world is constantly changing and evolving. Ben claims to be an Orthodox Jew, but true Orthodoxy means strict adherence, which means behaving more like the Taliban, women can’t read and write, stoning people to death…that’s Orthodoxy. Which makes Ben progressive, his wife, I assume, is allowed to read and write. You may say, well duh women should be able to read and write, but just remember the conservative rallying cry that progress is a slippery slope, one century you’re letting women read and write, and the next century you’re banning semi-automatic pistols, can’t have that. So why does Ben pretend he’s not a progressive, is he dumb or is he lying to you? Being conservative and arguing against progress boils down to convincing you that poor people should stay poor, and have not, so that Charles Koch, can have. Ben convinces you that the state of your fellow man should be misery. One of his main/thematic arguments is this: poor people have it better in America than anywhere else on earth, at any time in history, which is probably true. However, he thinks that poor people should just shut up and enjoy what they have. He ignores the fact that poor people “have it good in America” because of progress…because of scientific progress, technological progress, and, gasp, because labor unions fight for higher wages and better working conditions for workers. Your thinking should be that a rising tide lifts all ships, that we should all get to grow, have, and progress, but, he has convinced you that your thinking should be that all the employees of Amazon should slave away so that Jeff Bezos, and Jeff Bezos alone, can blast off into space.

    3. Right Wing ‘herd mentality’ is good for fattening wallets of people like Carlson, Trump, Hannity and Murdoch. Why mess with a good thing, eh?

    4. James and his wife Kathryn Murdoch, who are notoriously active political donors, gave $20 million to President Joe Biden’s campaign, groups opposed to former President Donald Trump and other wow i be t u feel supid

    5. @bruno alves ” Reply to me and ill show you data from my country to school you. ” I’ve replied to you often enough yet you keep failing to cite credible sources for your FUD.

  5. Theyve made Jim Jones proud if he’d only known he could take over an entire political party including 6 seats on the Supreme Court who would’ve thunk it.

    1. For those who are not paying rent to their landlord because of COVID, SCOTUS ENDS moratorium on evictions
      You WILL BE EVICTED SOON ! The
      AOC and Rashid Talib went to Protest in front of the SCOTUS

    2. @ILLEGITIMATE DEMENTED Joe
      THE KING IS NOT HERE.
      I’M just a regular person in Boston media. We lie about massacres n stuff. One of those FakeNewZ’
      ON DESKS.

    1. @Ray Cox Yea the real truth comes from Alex Jones , Fox , Newsmax , etc ……… wow you are smart man ……how do you find home when you go out ??? LOL LOL

    2. @Geoffrey Cass you democrats voting for Biden is mind boggling. People taking this is far less worrisome than leaving the taliban with 83 billion dollars worth of our military equipment. Buckle up buttercup!

    3. @Poot Thatbak and the same people that approved fentanyl are the ones to approve the vaccine. The party of hypocrisy

    1. Dont you love it when Jordan Klepper of the Daily Show ,show them how ignorant they are and they have no idea how stupid they sound and are being made fun of.

    2. @Dont Wake Me Up ‘
      1)Why would the Free Press lie to you?
      What advantages are there?
      2) MEDIA THEE ENEMY.

      INSULTING PEOPLE/FRIENDS.
      EVERYONE TAKES IT. RIGHT?
      I’M just a regular person in Boston media. YOU HAVE NEWS FROM 1 MAN UNQUESTIONED. HES NOT HERE.

    3. they only think about whatever owns the libs, they are so clouded by their hate of liberals that they cannot think rationally

  6. Isn’t it ironic that US people opposing mask mandates shout, “Don’t be sheep”, while taking cow medication?

    1. @chris hooge look who hasn’t been paying attention. Trump recommended the vax at a rally recently, and was roundly boo’d for it. As was the guy who introduced him when he suggested we move past the 2020 election and what happened, instead focusing on 2022. Yeah, that didn’t set well either.

    2. @Emerald524 OrangeApe trying to safe some of his political career/legacy by finally accepting the science is just for show, just as the constant blame shifting from the right wing media and trolls here.

    3. This is why we tell y’all not to hang out with cattle and horses on the bad side of the pasture. It’s all fun and games until some human ODs on Ivermectin.

  7. The late vaccine-skeptic Phil Valentine was taking Ivermectin. And, he said, “Vitamin D like crazy”– which is an accurate statement.

    1. @Win Big with Lena & Mike No, you-no-coup didn’t just say drink it he said something about injecting it too

    2. @Tyrell Anderson Orange man silly they guy you guys loose your minds over LOL He was talking about an approved treatment with peroxide nebulizers they did at Cedars -Sinai in California to treat lung infections and the media took it down to there level so all you brilliant lefties could foam at the mouth ahahah get bent

  8. OMG NOOOOO!!!!! Devin Nunes’ Cow is at risk!!!! Poor thing as if being Devin Nunes’ cow wasn’t painful enough. I think this is all a dastardly plan by Devin Nunes’ Mom – she took the meds from Devin Nunes’ Cow out of spite because he was spending way to much time with his old cow. 🐮👵🏻

    1. This joke is nonsense herd immunity would mean you don’t take anything when you get sick 🤷 only fools believe MSNBC tells the truth 😂

    2. @Richard B if MSNBC told people to go jump off a cliff to save your life I bet you would the first in line 😂

    3. @Marvin Westmaas you are wrong fox is part of the msn and I don’t believe anything they say unless the have evidence to prove the claim is true 😂

    1. @Globe Flicker so do vaccines pimped by Gates Foundation in 3rd world countries. An entire lot was tested and each vial contained compounds that caused infertility.

    2. @Won and it never will be, because it’s inexpensive. I was diagnosed Thursday, after presenting symptoms on Wednesday. So far, aside from the IVM, I was prescribed the same meds as when I’ve had pneumonia/walking pneumonia and bronchitis to treat/ease the symptoms of Covid.

    3. And people drink cows milk meant to nourish a calf!!! 🤔. I love humans they are sooooo comical!!!!

    1. @XD MEDIA spoken like a true covidiot. you must also stutter whataboutisms all day as well.

    2. @Muad’Dib Yup, as expected from the other comment, nothing but a right wing troll account hidden under an Arabic name.

    1. Anyone dumb enough to suffer out of fear of being ridiculed online, needs a backbone and balls. Full stop.

  9. “I’ll drink this topical horse worming lotion, but I’ll be damned if I let the government force their vaccine on me,” has to be the best caption for a Darwin award ever!

    1. @Ralph Sims “There is no scientific basis for a potential therapeutic effect against COVID-19″… Statement from the manufacturers of Ivermectin. 4:35
      The drug is approved to treat parasites, not viruses.
