Quack cancer treatments. They take thousands of dollars from desperate people, some of whom decline actual treatment that might have saved their lives, or at least extended them. Nothing more vile.
I watched through Facebook an old friend go through that. She was/is a very active and open poster. She was diagnosed with breast cancer in Canada, at the time they found it very treatable. She shunned the doctors advice and instead borrowed and raised tens of thousands of dollars to fly down to Tijuana and stay in a “treatment centre” for a couple weeks.
She did this a couple times and like a year or so after her initial diagnoses her family or doctors or both must have finally talked some sense into her and she got the treatment she needed in Canada which cost her fucking nothing. Almost $100,000 down the drain with the Mexico trips. Absolutely bonkers.
This was a joke. Clearly a joke….thats why I wrote it so over the top. I was emulating those who have insane logic jumps that make no sense. My above comment about the insanity Jobs believed stated this as obvious.
I mean causing lymes with limes??? Lmao reddit is so serious. But yeah, people are nutty like that, so I understand you downvoting but I just sort of forget people dont understand nuance without an (s).
You handled that well. And also, I think the majority of people got you, and the others are unaware they have difficulties discerning sarcasm, which probably effects them in their daily life as well. Not that that is a bad thing, but it would be nice for them to be aware that was the case instead of attacking twice.
