It's also not a headline, it's a tweet. Twitter is quite clearly aimed at those already listening to the FDA, not trying to win over crackpots who won't listen anyway. Again you are taking something out of context and getting offended by it, showing some personal investment in the anti idea.
If you want respect from mainstream society and not be treated like a joke, don't act like one in the first place. Govs don't reason with extremists, they just deal with them by ignoring them, mocking them or education programs, arguing with someone that's nuts never works. If you think someone is going to apply reasonable conversation when the opposition starts from an irrational point of view, well you might be kidding yourself. They get air time from media as they attract attention with their far out views, but even the media showing them often mocks them to the face with the tone of interview.
Oh please. That comparison is absolutely valid. Hillary only needed a small percentage of those ‘deplorable s’ and things would have been very different. You don’t need all the anti vax extremists, that’s not realistic. You just want as many as you can, but you aren’t getting most of them past the headline of it starts out by giving them $h&t. Besides, The political comparison was already made above. It’s no secret that ivermectin is a favorite topic among many on the right.
I’ve implied repeatedly you’re going to struggle to get those people to change their minds, but if you want to win any of them over, use Honey, not vinegar.
It is not the government’s place to use people’s taxes mock any of their citizens.
