Improper use of Disinfectants

Due to recent speculation and social media activity, RB (the makers of Lysol and Dettol) has been asked whether internal administration of disinfectants may be appropriate for investigation or use as a treatment for coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2).

Iā€™ve mentioned this before but our mainline philly (affleunt) area went completely blue in 18 and 19. The lady handing out the republican sample ballots ā€œdonā€™t worry it wonā€™t burn your fingersā€. She had getting negative comments and dirty looks all day.

Engaged with some Trumpkins online this morning. The President WAS NOT suggesting we inject people with disinfectant. He was JUST ASKING QUESTIONS about whether it was a possibility. The media is twisting his words because orange man bad.

Except that you still have to be a total idiot to ask whether injecting disinfectant might cure coronavirus.

Yes, but the cult is not quite smart enough to understand ā€œdistinction without a difference.ā€

I think this is also the instinct behind so many people insisting for years against all evidence that every transparently stupid thing that Trump did was actually a part of some bigger 4D chess move. Because surely someone canā€™t be that stupid right? I mean, you have to be really smart to be rich right?

I donā€˜t know about curing, but I am pretty sure injecting a decent amount of bleach will make sure you wonā€™t die of because of the coronavirusā€¦

The astonishing thing about Trumps business failure (he was broke and done before the apprentice saved him) is that he turned $500 million into $0 WHILE HAVING ZERO ETHICS. It is a huge cheat code in business, especially real estate (which is full of one off transactions) to be a piece of shit. The guy is just dumb as rocks.

It would be really hilarious if the literal future of human civilization werenā€™t involved. If I didnā€™t have kids I might still be able to find it pretty hilarious, but I do, so.
