Youtube Alternatives : Centralized : Bitchute, Rumble, DTube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, Vidlii Decentralized : Odysee(LBRY), Peertube

and none of the alternatives are even 1/100 as good or have nearly the same reach as youtube, which is how youtube is able to get away with what they do. VCs are much more interested these days in payment processing, which is where the money is, than video, which is expensive and hard to monetize..

Sites that turn into landfills tend not to have very good reach nor be profitable.

Everyone that study the subject will see that the evidence for Ivermectin is overwhelming. https://c19ivermectin.com/ The suppression of a cheap & effective C19 drug is a crime against humanity.

Garbage In Garbage Out

Open-Label studies on some poor country are not "quality evidence". (On the other hand I don't take that manufacturer's statement as a fair and honest assessment of the drug)

We do need serious studies on the repurposing of drugs, but people take it as their silver bullet.

The makers of Ivermectin are against the use of Ivermectin for Covid. https://www.merck.com/news/merck-statement-on-ivermectin-use... The dissenters are advocating things even the company that stands to profit from those things opposes. That’s how off the deep end this is.

Here's the flipside to your point:

"Dr. Robert Malone is the inventor of mRNA Vaccine technology." - here he is discussing Ivermectin with Bret Weinstein: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_NNTVJzqtY

Another video Bret had to re-upload and only a short amount of it, because YouTube removed the original and gave him a strike for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q01LUg97eto

Earlier quoted context omitted.

And how exactly do they determine whether something is "dangerous medical misinformation"? I'm guessing it's probably based on WHO guidelines, which means a very large number of things are off limits.

Wasn’t the WHO (and CDC) incorrect regarding several aspects of the recent Coronavirus?

There is nothing wrong with being wrong. There is something wrong if the process was corrupted and corrections are not made if known.

> is a crime against humanity

This is an offshoot, but I wish this form of hyperbole would stop. “Crime against humanity” is a technical term. Watering it down to refer to everything one doesn’t like dilutes it. We have actual crimes against humanity that cannot find political ground, in part due to the term’s semantic satiation.

This is a controversial issue surrounding the safety and efficacy of Ivermectin, a prescription drug, as an COVID-19 treatment. Edit: the issue surrounds efficacy too.

This is not an issue around the safety of Ivermectin, as it is an incredibly well-known drug that is now off patent.

This is a discussion around efficacy.

It is similar to the MD asks around using a Zpak for Covid.

On the’censored’ man’s attempted foray into a different field, physics: “ The paper qualifies that the author "is not a physicist" but an "entertainer", and it has received strong criticism from the scientific community, including having "no visible impact" and having "gaps both mathematical and physical in origin that jeopardize Geometric Unity as a well-defined theory, much less one that is a candidate for a theory…

What is this slander? That is a completely separate topic, one which wikipedia cannot do justice in a paragraph, and neither can you. Second, the tweet is about Brett's censored video, not Eric. Watch the video.
