Nah that's old school. He's probably a dark enlightenment/neoreactionary type.
You are attacking an inanimate object.
If I put a plutonium rod on your desk, would you do anything about it?
Excellent.
A reply that:
- has nothing to do with homeopathy
- has an oncologist saying "you'll be dead within a year" rather than talking about probabilities, survival rates, etc
- assumes that Western medicine hasn't recognized (and indeed vigorously sought to exploit) the potential of herbal remedies
Handy hint: this kind of post does not help your cause, cos it makes you look really really dumb
Excellent!
So:
- no list of lots of areas where Western medicine isn't better than non-Western
- instead, a thrilling explication of phage treatments as a treatment for bacterial infection
- plus, as a bonus, a fabulous misunderstanding of what makes an RCT an RCT and why this drives regulation and is in fact a Western idea not an Eastern idea
And you're not the OP
A poll of polls?
No, we should "pole" the politicians. As in, beat them with a heavy metal pole, and then hoist them up on one.
One problem is that the 1991 Telephone Consumer Protection Act has been interpreted by the Federal Communications Commission to prohibit the calling of cellphones through automatic dialers, in which calls are passed to live interviewers only after a person picks up the phone.
I know some people that the pollers could outsource to that have seemed to have found a very easy workaround to this problem.
"Hi, this is Rachel from polling services....."
Now, as a competent, dedicated law enforcement professional who is committed to making this project work for the good of society, you're going to need to test it. Thoroughly.
You need a lot of pictures of people with tattoos, preferably not covered by too much clothing. And you're going to need to double check that the image recognition is correct for every match.
Once you've done that, you'll need to start applying the same algorithm to video sources. Again, with careful checking to verify that the system is working correctly.
Where on the Internet are you going to find a huge volume of images and video featuring people with exposed tattoos? And how, exactly, did you just convince the government that it was your job to spend all day watching them while calling it science?
Probably the best way to roll this out would be to target and identify repeat offenders. If you have someone currently incarcerated, you can take good clear pictures of them revealing their tattoos which could then be matched to images of tattoos from crimes committed after they are released/before they were incarcerated.
MY one concern is this:how good would it be at recognizing altered tattoos or ones that have had additional tattoos added to or applied over the original tattoo? Want to help get away with murder? Every time you kill someone just add a tattoo to your sleeve, incorporating a previous tattoo so that it is altered enough to render this method ineffective. Plus you get the added benefit of having a souvenir/reminder of each criminal act. Think the Johnny-23 character from the movie Con Air.
It should be pretty hard to obtain an expendable human in the countries where the remaining rhinos live. C4 is very stable and won't go off on impact, but a stable and long-lasting detonator would be needed.
New idea: Give the rhinos an authentic-looking prosthetic horn with some C4 in it and a tensioned trigger wire running to the old horn stump. If some fucker cuts the horn off, BOOM.
That gives me a great idea - turn the poachers into middlemen. Get them to resell the fake horns at a large profit. It gives them a vested interest in passing off the fake horns as the real thing instead of making them compete with the fake horns, and the smugglers will be none the wiser.
tackle football (NFL doesn't like it, anymore).
Miss the days of players deliberately making helmet-to-helmet tackles without penalty? If you want to have the brain of an 80 year old Alzheimer's patient before you can run for the Senate, go volunteer yourself, Sparky.
I miss the days where a player would be taught to break down, plant their facemask in their opponents chest,wrap up, and drive through. No shattered knees, no concussions. Now their idea of tackling is dropping their heads and launching themselves at people's knees.

This is the page on homeopathy, but If you go on the home page you will see more of such stories for other woo stuff.
Homeopathy should be properly labelled as containing no active ingredient whatsoever , a bit like the big black label on cigarettes, or even downright banned until it pass the same STANDARD test on animals and human to demonstrate the advertised effect.
Where there's a will, there's a relative.
