I have a great affinity with certain parts of South America . There is so much about the lifestyle down there that I enjoy and truly admire . Joy, happiness, strong family and neighborhood ties …. so very unlike my own neighborhood here in the US. But , there are some things down there that bother me .
One thing that bothers me down there is that regardless of what highly educated medical professionals will advise , a large percentage will ignore that advice . They will instead listen to the illiterate fat lady in the market selling plantains who proclaims ….
” Somebody told me that some ginger root, a Coca Cola followed by a Tequila”
….and you’ll be cured.
Suddenly no ginger roots, cokes or tequila can be found anywhere in the barrio . Yet the only one’s that get cured quickly are those that believe in the medical professionals … and of course can afford that expense .
I live in what’s touted the most advanced nation on the planet. Yet half of us have easily been convinced that we can’t trust our scientists or medical professionals . Just today someone I know told me that he trusts my brothers Google Searches more than our own CDC and scientific research .
Our own illiterate Fat Lady selling plantains in the market did tell us that Hydroxychloroquine was the answer and I’m not surprised that that this statement is still being defended. That’s because we’ve drained the swamp …
… and ourselves become a third world shit hole
