The McGill Office for Science and Society created a video about a cure for cancer that has known for years but was banned by the FDA:
Spoiler alert: it doesn't work. Everything in the video is made up, the people, the names, the photos, the facts - all fabricated. As best I can tell even the moss they mention is made up. When I was watching it (with no spoilers) my alarm bells went off as soon as they mentioned some guy from the 1800s knowing about the structure of DNA because it wasn't figured out until the second half of the 20th Century using X-ray crystallography.
But how many people in general society know that? Or know what the structure of DNA is? Or even know what DNA is? It's sad. But as the video points out, if you don't know something ask someone who does. But how do people know what people know? We are now used to people at the very highest levels lying daily, and people are conditioned to doubt and dismiss actual facts merely because they disagree with what they want to believe.
All I can say is sad.
Thoughts?
