Anti-science activism never went away, it got a new ugly face in the #information age:
Quacks, gurus, contrarian doctors, fake experts, influencers, political commentators and similar media manipulators.
Previously we looked at "merchants of #doubt"

Hoy os quiero hablar de “Evil Empire”. Bienvenidos/as al “Imperio del mal” de Rage Against The Machine. Abro hilo: @RATMofficial #ratm #rock #alternative #activism
Tras uno de los mejores debuts de la historia del rock, Rage Against The Machine se encontraban con la difícil misión de intentar llegar a las cotas de excelencia de su ópera prima. No lo consiguieron, pero “Evil Empire”, no deja de ser un álbum mayúsculo hecho por una banda que… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Ser una formación que fusionaba rap y metal, y además profesar un activismo político en sus letras, no era fácil, ni lo sigue siendo. Rápidamente la rapiña mediática comienza su cruzada, para desacreditar al grupo, y a la mínima ocasión ridiculizarlo por entender que su música y… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

We are so PUMPED to be back at House Judiciary committee to hear HB23-1187 Alternative Sentencing for Pregnant People #copolitics
HB23-1187 will ensure that #pregnant people have the opportunity to #alternative sentencing 🔥

We know that pregnancy is contraindicated towards a #healthy pregnancy & being incarcerated while pregnant is harmful to both the pregnant person and the child - #reproductivejustice is what we are fighting for today #copolitics @elephant_circle @S2SSisters
Correctional facilities are not mandated to track or report pregnancy-related data & most facilities do not have any routine process for collecting such information - another reason why we are saying YES on HB23-1187 #copolitics #leadership #reproductivehealth
Maybe another word on the '#unredacted Fauci emails', now that it is clear that there were no cover-ups or suppression of #lableak, but just neutral #scientific discussion.
Observe how lableak advocates will run their #disinformation playbook, we've seen this before.

What is the investment case for #alternative asset investing in a nutshell?
Here are some of the key considerations in this thread 👇
1. For many decades, the conventional wisdom around #investing has comprised a roughly 60%/40% portfolio of equities and bonds
Here are some of the key considerations in this thread 👇
1. For many decades, the conventional wisdom around #investing has comprised a roughly 60%/40% portfolio of equities and bonds
2. However, the world currently finds itself in a tough position - #equity valuations have run incredibly hard for a long time, but at the same time #investors will have a hard time recycling from equity into debt due to historically low interest rates
3. So what do you do if you’re worried that your historic way of thinking isn’t going to hold up in the new world? THIS is where alternatives play a role for a portion (not all) of your #portfolio

"I was diagnosed with cancer. So I took ayurvedic immunotherapy. I was feeling well but the tumors in my lungs were growing" says a 25yr old female patient , with metastatic lung carcinoma with a poor prognosis. What is Ayurvedic immunotherapy? 😡(1) #ayurveda
At the time of diagnosis , had this girl followed the accepted , approved and effective treatment , the intent would have been curative not palliative as it is now. (2)
Is there a regulatory body in India that looks into such falsely claimed cures? How many more lives will be left at the mercy of these unverified treatment methods. (3) #oncologists #cancer #alternative #medicine

#HIV #AIDS meds NRTIs
Rare - methotrexate, chemodrugs irinotecan, 5FU, tamoxifen
Also important is Amiodarone
Herbals with #Margosa oil too
Remember #alternative meds rich in fats are important causes too.

A new paper in @sciencemagazine from #Belkaid lab at #NIH described an #alternative differentiation #pathway for #commensal-specific T cells in presence of inflammation. Do the data presented support conclusions? Let's dive in.

science.sciencemag.org/content/363/64…
1. #Commnesal S. epidermidis–specific -#MIIINA:H2-M3+ CD8+ T cells ordinarily differentiate into Tc1 or Tc17 subsets. However, when co-exposed to chitin or sand fly (source of #inflammation), Tc17 subset also produce type II cytokines.
2. In such condition, type II #cytokines such as IL-5 or IL-13 are produced by CCR6+ Tc17 cells (out of which 30% are IL-17+). However, there is no overlap between IL-17+ and IL-5+/IL-13+ CD8+ T cells. So, the authors conclusion about "paradoxical phenotype" is unsubstantiated.
