ickplantYou're cured!
AeriRegularly scheduled warning but chiropractor is not a real doctor and can paralyze you for life.
TransNekoregularly scheduled reminder that real Chiropractors are highly trained and not paid extra money to prescribe you a medication that has a warning label that includes the very minor side effects of… may cause: dizziness, nausea, rashes, cancer, and a mild case of death.
they can however diagnose issues for less money than a doctor.
it took $10000 of scans and 10 years for doctors to decide that my constantly sprained ankle as in fact a permanent bone bruise. it took 3 different chiropractors (at 3 different events) 5 minutes to diagnose that same issue.
the difference between the doctors and the chiropractors? the doctors are trapped by modern medicine and textbook diagnostic techniques. the chiropractors can pull from sources that have worked for thousands of years before some nutjob with lots of money and a product to sell said no.
oh you’re also a racist, got it
the chiropractors can pull from sources that have worked for thousands of years
Chiropractic was made up in the 1800s.
the word yes. but the practice of stretching and massaging muscles and shifting bones back into place has been around longer than your precious white man doctor has existed. or do you deny that China had doctors, masseuses, and the equivalent of a chiropractor for over 2000 years.
and let me guess… the answer is: you deny anything that isn’t in the bible.
the answer is: you deny anything that isn’t in the bible.
Are you stoned?
nope. however your bible does clearly state that people like me should be stoned. so go ahead. try it. 🖕
your bible
Where has anyone mentioned Christianity? Sham science is sham science.
let me guess… You believe in the holy FDA bible. which includes taking bribes, suppressing evidence of harm in medical studies, and outright ignoring advice about harmful medicine until the death toll gets publicized.
Acupuncturists and other “alternative” providers never kill anyone, of course.
Since you seem to worship the FDA as a god that can do no wrong and base all your bullshit on them. and since I know you are too lazy to look shit up without bias. I’ll give a summary on each.
Some of the FDA’s biggest fuckups:
opioids-- addiction
Diethylstilbestrol (DES), 1971 – cancer
Bextra, 2005 – toxic epidermal necrolysis which had a 50% lethality rate
Vioxx, 2004 – the FDA ignored evidence of harm for years
Fen-Phen, 1997 – the FDA ignored reports of horrific side-effects until a woman died
Darvon/Darvocet – it took the FDA 50+ years to remove this after approving in it 1957
other fuckups by the FDA:
slow response to contaminated baby food
approving known risky drugs like Aduhelm
allowing purposefully misleading marketing
in 2017 an FDA inspector found serious issues with a Chinese manufacturing plant. superiors in the FDA ordered the issue to be ignored and even suppressed.
Pharma kickbacks for approval of drugs (Pharma pays FDA to approve without testing)
FDA director who took bribes to approve aspartame
The protein scandal in China where the FDA knew that the tested samples were being spiked and the FDA looked the other way letting around 300000 children get sick, with around 54000 hospitalized and 6 babies died.
The FDA has a history of ignoring recommendations from advisory committees, taking bribes to let drugs pass inspection, and even knowingly buries evidence of fraud in medical trials.
but go on… tell me about a few rare cases of death from Acupuncturists and Chiropractors. It’s not like the FDA has resulted in the deaths of children… oh wait… I just listed a case about that.
And since you clearly want to ignore facts:
Navarro - 2006 Florida – doctors while knowing his family history of strokes, failed to recognize symptoms of stroke and misdiagnosed him with a sinus infection – sending him home with painkillers instead. The next day, he needed emergency surgery for brain swelling and stayed in a coma for three months. it ruined his career as he was a Basketball pro.
Applewhite - 1998 New York – after Anaphylactic shock her mother was advised by the EMTs to wait for an advanced life support ambulance. Applewhite requires a feeding tube, a wheelchair and is unable to speak.
DeGrand - 2018 Michigan --brought in for scoliosis surgery to prevent the condition from getting worse. partially paralyzed after Her surgeon placed rods and screws in DeGrand’s spine to help straighten it, but instead, it compressed her spinal cord and caused numbness in her limbs. By the time her doctor removed the hardware, it was too late to reverse the damage that had been done and that would affect DeGrand for the rest of her life.
Pierce - 2018 Texas – misdiagnosed by a doctor on probation (that the hospital knew had a history of misdiagnosing and preforming unnecessary procedures) and then left under a medically induced coma for over a month before some other doctor bothered to re-diagnose him.
Whyte - 2013 Florida – permanent brain injuries and failed to wake up from anesthesia after doctors performed a procedure called “Manipulation Under Anesthesia” at the Atlantic Surgical Center. The doctor admitted later on that the procedure had been unnecessary, and his reasoning behind it was unethical. he left behind 2 daughters.
Denton - 2013 Virginia – permanently disabled, with only half of his heart functioning, and with a significantly shorter life expectancy. According to results from a cardiac catheterization test, Denton had a 70 percent blockage in one of his main arteries. However, his cardiologist Dr. Edward Chu with the Riverside Regional Medical Center concluded that Denton’s heart arteries were disease-free and took him off of his heart medication ‒ switching him to an over-the-counter medication instead.
Tripp - 2017 Arizona – heart attack and permanent brain damage due to oxygen deprivation after she was prescribed the incorrect medication by a resident physician only eight weeks out of medical school. Profilnine is a blood-clotting medication, that per hospital guidelines, should be prescribed only in specific circumstances, including to patients who require emergency surgery or have serious or life-threatening bleeding; Tripp fell into neither of these categories.
And for added fun:
Dr. Morris Bolber - 1931-1939 Philly. serial killer credited with 30-50 kills
Dr Jack Kevorkian aka Dr Death - 1990-1999 credited with over 100 deaths. additionally was one sick fucker even before becoming a serial killer. He presented a paper to the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1958, arguing that condemned criminals could provide a service to humanity before their death. These experiments would be performed while the inmates were conscious and end in their fatality.
Dr. Kermit Gosnell - 1972-2010 - snipped the necks of over 100 babies (after birth abortions) not including the late term abortions he did.
Dr Thomas Cream - 1881+ - arrested and jailed for life but was released via bribes and started killing again. was in jail during the Ripper cases but claimed he was Jack.
Dr John Adams - 1956 - the inheritance killer. escaped justice and continued to be a doctor.
Dr HH Holmes - 1893 - if you don’t know who he is… you are an idiot. 200+ kills
Dr Marcel Petiot - WWII - credited with poisoning over 60 Jews trying to escape Germany.
Dr Jayant Patel (another Dr Death) - 1984-2006. Jail time suspended due to Appeal.
Dr Harold Shipman -1977+ – at least 236 kills.
Dr Walter Freeman (father of Lobotomy) - at least 490 kills. never faced justice.
Dr Carl Clausberg - WWII - Nazi Dr. need I say any more? probably a few thousand kills for him
Dr Michael Swango - Boy did the FBI screw the pooch on this one repeatedly.
Dr Josef Mengele - WWII - The Angel of Death. never faced justice. Without this sick bastard, we would not have Anesthesia. and many life saving surgeries are based is his sick and twisted experiments.
but sure. let’s go with your story that Doctors are perfect.
It clearly proves that Chiropractors and Acupuncturists are safer than Doctors.
103-115k Licensed Chiropractors in the world and roughly half that for Acupuncturists so let’s say 173k total… at a credited 100-200 deaths total in the world over the past 100 years. let’s say an even split on which profession caused the deaths. that’s 50-100 deaths per profession over a 100 year period. so 1-2 deaths per year.
there are roughly 9 million Doctors worldwide. 1 in 10 patients are harmed by Licensed doctors each year with an average of 3 million Doctor malpractice related deaths per year worldwide and an average of about 250k in America per year. so let’s say a conservative number of deaths in 100 years of Doctors fucking up… and accounting for improvements in medical care laws… 250 million Doctor related deaths in a 100 year period.
boy… 1-2 deaths per year to Chiropractors and Acupuncturists fucking up is such a small number compared to the number of people who die each year due to Licensed Doctors fucking up.
but go ahead and keep pretending you actually have a fucking point and aren’t grasping at straws. I get it… you really wanted to be a doctor. you clearly have met all the prerequisites for being an American doctor. You ignore evidence that doesn’t support your claims, you have a stick shoved so far up your ass that it regularly hits the moon, and you have the fucking god complex to go with that stick up your ass.
but Numbers don’t lie unlike you. I sincerely hope you never actually manage to get a license to practice medicine… you are bound to kill a lot of people with your own arrogance and stupidity. but do let me know if you do get your license so I know what hospital group to avoid.
you use the exact same tactics as MAGA and Trump. Might I suggest you change your lifestyle because I really don’t want to read an article that says “newly licensed Doctor arrested for malpractice in transgender, black and latino patient related deaths” with your social media accounts linked to that doctor. I know it would make Trump love you… but that’s not a great look in the history books.
Bro, I dated a nurse who saw a girl die in the ER after an adjustment from a vertebral arterial dissection.
You pulled numbers out your ass and pretend they are authoritative. Here’s a fun number:
Actual medicine does things. Chiropractic does nothing at best, and can kill you at worst.
Also the random bullshit about trump and queerness does zero to advance your argument, and really just embarrasses you. I am cringing as a leftist trans person myself.
and yet you still ignore the facts that Doctors kill and harm more people.
here’s my source for that 1 in 10 patients harmed by doctors:

and here’s another article about doctors fucking up:

and the source for the doctors who were serial killers: I admit I missed Dr Hazzard cause i was switching apps to write everything down. – side note… notice how Dr Hazzard was a Hazard for your health.

as far as regulation of chiropractors in the USA it’s interesting how you claim that Chiropractors aren’t doctors or regulated in any way:
www.nccih.nih.gov/health/chiropractic-in-depth
www.bridgeport.edu/…/are-chiropractors-doctors/
and see: # 42 CFR § 410.21 - Limitations on services of a chiropractor.
here’s a dumbed down version for the USA:

and here’s a link to myths about chiropractors:

here’s a link to a history of chiropractors and the failure to discredit chiropractors written by a professor. the banner sucks for mobile devices but the sources he links at the bottom are especially fun:

my personal favorite: www.acatoday.org/about/history-of-chiropractic/
please note the big kick in your personal ass:
Congress passed legislation in 1993 to include chiropractic in the U.S. Department of Defense healthcare system. Today Chiropractic services are available to active-duty personnel at more than 60 military bases in the United States, Germany and Japan.
Legislation to include chiropractic in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) healthcare system was passed in 1999.
ACP updated its guideline for the treatment of acute and chronic low back pain in 2017 to recommend first using noninvasive, nondrug treatments—including spinal manipulation—before resorting to drug therapies. A host of other organizations have since endorsed ACP’s guideline or issued similar recommendations.
for a bunch of dangerous hacks and quacks as you claim… there is a whole lot of regulations and licensing involved. it’s almost as if I didn’t pull numbers out of my ass or cherry pick shit like you did.
On behalf of all real leftist transgender people. I sincerely apologize… I forgot that even leftist transgender people can fall prey to the same trap of discarding facts and cherry picking statistics/studies as you have proven.
