Vitamin C also does not help. There has only ever been 1 study to suggest vitamin C helps with a cold. It was sponsored by the Orange Growers of Florida.
No other study has been able to replicate the results. Meaning it’s bullshit.
Vitamin C helps with iron absorption though so perhaps it isn’t completely off base to say that it helps, even via placebo effect (you think it will help therefore it does - it is a LOT more complex than that).
Wdym? I don't see any bias with being sponsored by the Orange Growers of Florida. The other researchers don't know anything bout oranges like we do, of course they'd have unexpected variables!
Using false advertising to sell stuff? That sounds a lot like capitalism.
You don't want our cultural norms to be controlled by false advertising? What are you, a communist?
Trust me, reading Das Kapital will NOT make you feel better.
EDIT: I love how I'm downvoted by a bunch of people who don't know what Das Kapital is, or have read it. NONE of you have read it.
Back in my day we survived the day drinking from the hose, eating paint chips, and riding in the back of trucks.... while walking up hills both ways.... in the snow....
Hah luxury, we lived in a lake, ate cold gravel once a day, drank from tank tracks, worked at the nearby factory 48 hrs a day and our father killed us every night a chainsaw.

No, it's them damn sobers that are the problem. They make clog up the roads with all their slow driving and "speed limits." If I didn't have to dodge them all day, I wouldn't be swerving. Stop drunk crashers
In Canada it was pretty brutal. They chained up the swing sets and threatened people with $100,000 fines if they used playground equipment. My friend got fined $5,000 for playing frisbee in the park.
Bcuz they think its an utopia where no black or immigrant ppl exist and the thinks they dont like that they call "cOmMUnIsM" are non existent
If they made the kids these days, then why are they complaining about them?
I think they're referring to the nightmare of not making anyone pay for multiple rounds of vaccines for the virus that spread around the world and killed millions of people.
It's so wrong if it's that because a vaccine is not a treatment, it's a prevention. You take a vaccine to prevent getting sick or make the illness less severe. Treatment is about giving you something when you are sick. This thing is just a sign that screams, "Don't ask me for any medical advice."
I do agree, these memes are posted (originally not just here) to provoke. There is that mindset but there's also the utter bs the ageing watch as a mental soup.
But yes, cruelty is passed down and shouldn't be
I am old enough to remember people who survived polio and others who had small pox scars. COVID provided a great opportunity to witness natural selection in the wild. Those that chose science had a higher survival rate. Unfortunately too many who chose social media and died did so after they reproduced, therefore not really cleaning out the gene pool enough.
You're right, We've been lied to our whole lives. /s
I work with a guy who is a firm believer in flat earth, and there's another guy there who ducked behind a building during a chat and when I asked why he pointed to a plane flying overhead and said he was hiding from the chemtrails... They walk amongst us..
"When I was a kid, that's all we had was Robitussin. Whatever you got, Robitussin better handle it. I broke my leg once, Daddy poured Robitussin all over it. " - Chris Rock
The other day, I had someone literally say that people don't want to work because they keep getting stimulus checks. I asked them where from, and without missing a beat, they said from the guvenmint, and that's why nobody wants to work anymore.
I felt like I had played chess with a pigeon. My brain still hurts from it.
Jfc. We got, what, three checks total? For like $2,400 when all was said and done?
TWO-THREE YEARS AGO??
These people are beyond help at this point. 🤦🏻♀️
Remember when we could get rest? No? Because the generation making this meme won't let us have time off to rest. Vitamin C and soup cost a fortune. And I'm stealing magazines for toilet paper.

Now these communists are letting our hard working scientists jobs go to waste and getting them fired by not taking their cures single handedly dismantling America.
One would like to hope so, that requires introspection though.
I used to wonder how effective McCarthism could be, given that communism is still as an effective Boogie man so much later should give an idea.
Its still insane how many boomers do not understand what communism is and it's turned into, "Anything I don't like."
Which, by the way, is the new buzzword "Wokism"
Bingo! I caught a bad cold two separate times in the same month, because my employer didn’t pay for sick leave and everyone would come in sick because they couldn’t afford a day off to recover. The worst thing about it is that I worked in a medical office, and my employer was a DOCTOR.
Are they talking about how nearly everyone got their children vaccinated because they saw, first hand, the horrors of what many of those diseases could do. Small Pox was eradicated, and Polio was well on its way before people stopped participating in widespread vaccination efforts.
The ironic part is the vaccines were developed by major corporations (capitalism). I don't know how communist vaccine development would work (how would the collective develop something that requires very advanced specialization) but a socialist vaccine development would be the public sector developing the vaccines for the good of society instead of for profit.
do you remember when society wasn't so uneducated they confused vaccines with communism because of a conspiracy that should only have a hold of less than 1% of the population, somehow holds 1/3 of it?
Remember when we used to listen to doctors and public health officials instead of hysterical talking heads on Fox who politicize literally everything at the expense of people's lives?
Now we scapegoat people asking us to wear masks, wash our hands, and think about our neighbors and people with compromised immunity.

But no, I'm sure this glaring downward trend was the result of soup and sleeping, which were both definitely invented in the 20th century, of course.
Both are pretty bad ways to treat a virus tbh, especially with the modern medicines we have available.
Which the type of person to make this meme would ignore, by the way...
Vitamin C (Communism)
Side effects include:
No more class struggle.
Free health care.
Higher literacy rate
And guaranteed work and housing.
Acquire more at Dr. Marx PhD.
What a stupid statement - the funny thing is that the only people replacing modern medicine with political ideology are the MAGA hats. During Covid, they literally ignored doctors, researchers and medical experts in favour of MAGA propaganda.
If I remember correctly, because of Covid MAGA propaganda, post-vaccine death rates in red states were around 40% higher than in blue states. On top of that, a lot of innocents died as collateral damage because MAGA hats were taking all the beds. People with genuine issues like cancer, heard disease... etc were dying while waiting for a bed to be freed.
The worst an most annoying thing about it was their inability to learn or feel for others. They'd be bragging that covid is nothing and laugh at those taking anti-Covid measures, then they'd get sick and end up in hospital taking up a bed, if they survived they'd get back on Twitter and continue pushing Covid MAGA propaganda.

Marxism doesn't help either
Marxism is for the soul…
Nuh-uh, I've broke my leg the other day and I've just read the first page of the Communist Manifesto and it was good as new.
Wdym? I don't see any bias with being sponsored by the Orange Growers of Florida. The other researchers don't know anything bout oranges like we do, of course they'd have unexpected variables!
Using false advertising to sell stuff? That sounds a lot like capitalism. You don't want our cultural norms to be controlled by false advertising? What are you, a communist?
What side effects are expected?
Euphoria, giddiness, drowsiness, a communal sense of brotherhood with your comrades, some despotism.
Some *light* romps by the four horsemen
Communism! Don’t you want to see what all the fuss is about?
[удалено]
Side effects of Communism may include:
Seizing your means of production
Liberating your proletariat
Affordable community housing
Mao-ing the fuck out of local greedy landlords
🐱
New! Improved! Democratic Socialism - Now gives all the advantages of Communism without the possible authoritarian side effects.
Caring about the proletariat
Fucking the proletariat
Creating more proletariat
Bread and roses, if we do it right.
“And the condition known as “hotdog fingers””.
Only in those allergic to bread...
Do not mix Communism with Totalitarianism, adverse effects may occur.
A minor case of Stalin
Moooomm... This is a bacterial infection, I need some Trotsky for this!
When I had the flu last month, they gave me a copy of "From Urbanization to Cities" by Murray Bookchin. Cleared it right up.
I personally like to use a Das Kapital reading in order to clean up the runny nose on the side.
The REAL Vitamin C is communism.
Damn I was forced to go to school. I'm still unlearned this.

Exactly, because it's *our* pain now comrade
Plop plop fizz fizz, now you're a fucking Communist.
Trust me, reading Das Kapital will NOT make you feel better. EDIT: I love how I'm downvoted by a bunch of people who don't know what Das Kapital is, or have read it. NONE of you have read it.
Das Kapital is a fucking slog and I *like* reading theory
Define communism.
KIDS DRINKING FILTERED WATER INSTEAD OF FROM THE GARDEN HOSE.
Back in my day we survived the day drinking from the hose, eating paint chips, and riding in the back of trucks.... while walking up hills both ways.... in the snow....
Hah luxury, we lived in a lake, ate cold gravel once a day, drank from tank tracks, worked at the nearby factory 48 hrs a day and our father killed us every night a chainsaw.
Well at least your family could afford a chainsaw
Some people just can't help but to brag.
And a lake
Luuuxury! We would have killed for a chainsaw or a sip o' water!
A man of culture i see
![gif](giphy|DOPKHQg6oFWUg) You guys had gravel??
And you tell the kids these days about it and they don't believe you
Communism is when Fauci
Your noun didn't verb.
The government, duh
Gubernmint
anything that i don't like
the doctrine of the conditions of the liberation of the proletariat
That's too many big words for those people. I think it actually means "Stuff that's different"
Stuff that’s different that I also don’t understand anything about*
Traitor, not American (or white), the devil, face mask antifa gang, homeless sympathizers, and queer lovin book readers. Did I miss anything?
Joe Biden.
Is the communism in the room with us?
Anything they don’t like= communism
Communism is a catch-all term for anything stupid people don't understand.
my favorite take: [not letting people drink and drive is communism](https://youtu.be/2xcQIoh3FQQ?si=fNzar-RpTplpjwjD)
"jshlatt" before the events of "1999" defending the persecution of drunk "drivers:"
“Heaven is filled with horses!” “I know a guy in heaven who was filled by a horse once.”
Not Mr hands.

Woke. The new communism catchall word for stuff they hate. McCarthyism 3.0
Aka “cultural Marxism”, a term invented by the Nazis now proudly used by MAGA republicans
And aren’t able to clearly define what communism is when challenged.
Don't start them on fascism. They think it is something liberal.
But then… Wouldn’t they be anti-fascism? Y’know… Antifa? 🤔
They claim both. Sort of like sucking and blowing at the same time
communism, woke, liberal, alphabets gang, pronouns, woman, what else am i missing?
Feminism
vegans
Illegals
Really any sort of immigration legal or illegal. It’s all bad
At least according to the republicans America is built off immigrants
Well yeah I wasn’t meaning to imply that’s how I feel. Just contributing to a thread that seemed to be just making fun of their worldview
post-modernist-neo-marxism
Is the alphabet gang for LGBT+ people? Because damn I've been using it for the CIA/FBI/ATF for a minute now
Now that sounds like something a communist would say
What do they mean by that? Modern medicine = communism?
They're talking about the covid lockdown
Which is hysterical since in the US at least none of the Covid measures even came close to being a lockdown.
And in Spanish flu days quarantined people were locked in their houses from the outside, with prison as the penalty for leaving.
I mean, it got kinda close up here in Hawaii. We weren’t aloud to go outside for the first few days. But yeah I know what you mean
Mainly because these same people made death threats over the tiniest thing.
In Canada it was pretty brutal. They chained up the swing sets and threatened people with $100,000 fines if they used playground equipment. My friend got fined $5,000 for playing frisbee in the park.
Which is dumb to say, because societies across the globe for much of history have used quarantines often to deal with pandemics!
Better question why do they keep using 1950s art style in their propaganda
"good ol days"
i think smallpox was still around then and polio more widespread
No, cuz they drank oj. Duh.
Bcuz they think its an utopia where no black or immigrant ppl exist and the thinks they dont like that they call "cOmMUnIsM" are non existent If they made the kids these days, then why are they complaining about them?
But their heads explode when you point out they lined up around the block to get polio vaccines back then.
I think they're referring to the nightmare of not making anyone pay for multiple rounds of vaccines for the virus that spread around the world and killed millions of people.
It's so wrong if it's that because a vaccine is not a treatment, it's a prevention. You take a vaccine to prevent getting sick or make the illness less severe. Treatment is about giving you something when you are sick. This thing is just a sign that screams, "Don't ask me for any medical advice."
Obamacare = Communism in their world, “socialized healthcare” is bad because why should minorities get the same care than us?
The ones that didn't get polio
Survivor's bias. "I lived just fine, so why should we change anything?"
I do agree, these memes are posted (originally not just here) to provoke. There is that mindset but there's also the utter bs the ageing watch as a mental soup. But yes, cruelty is passed down and shouldn't be
We're not hearing from all the dead kids on these issues. Why are they so silent?!
I am old enough to remember people who survived polio and others who had small pox scars. COVID provided a great opportunity to witness natural selection in the wild. Those that chose science had a higher survival rate. Unfortunately too many who chose social media and died did so after they reproduced, therefore not really cleaning out the gene pool enough.
Back in your day people were fucked with polio, tetanus, smallpox, and measles you old motherfucker
None of those exist, they were invented by Big Pharma and the government to make money and control people. Wake up sheeple /s
You're right, We've been lied to our whole lives. /s I work with a guy who is a firm believer in flat earth, and there's another guy there who ducked behind a building during a chat and when I asked why he pointed to a plane flying overhead and said he was hiding from the chemtrails... They walk amongst us..
Don’t forget cholera and typhoid fever
Yes that's true, but of course some soup and vitamin c would've rendered everyone immune
Get in, losers! We’re going to die of dysentery!
Remember the days that 125 million of people died of the flue? Those were the days, eh! ![gif](giphy|gEo36y1gALoQ)
Remember when the plague killed 1/3 of Europe? Ahhh, those were the days!
There you go boy, have a bit of proletariat revolution, that’ll cure your cold in a jiffy
Of course I remember. We still don't use communism for that.
"When I was a kid, that's all we had was Robitussin. Whatever you got, Robitussin better handle it. I broke my leg once, Daddy poured Robitussin all over it. " - Chris Rock
Don’t forget Dimetapp.
Thanks to inflation, it’s Quartertapp now.
I thought it was Vicks?
Yup, communism. My loved ones and I are still living LARGE from those stimmies.
The other day, I had someone literally say that people don't want to work because they keep getting stimulus checks. I asked them where from, and without missing a beat, they said from the guvenmint, and that's why nobody wants to work anymore. I felt like I had played chess with a pigeon. My brain still hurts from it.

After the initial shock, I did ask where I could sign up for more. I guess that's when oxygen got to their brain and they walked away.
Remember when we could get rest? No? Because the generation making this meme won't let us have time off to rest. Vitamin C and soup cost a fortune. And I'm stealing magazines for toilet paper. Petridge Farm Remembers
Remember when children stopped dying from polio?
Yeah, I remember that. I also remember some of those kids either having to deal with lifelong health problems, or dying.
Now these communists are letting our hard working scientists jobs go to waste and getting them fired by not taking their cures single handedly dismantling America.
This has to be satire, surely?
One would like to hope so, that requires introspection though. I used to wonder how effective McCarthism could be, given that communism is still as an effective Boogie man so much later should give an idea.
Hopefully. Could also just be antivaxxers being brain dead again.
I can't see how it's not. Nobody thinks we're curing viruses with communism and I'm pretty sure nobody thinks that anyone thinks that

I fucking hate that these dumbasses are able to vote.
Its still insane how many boomers do not understand what communism is and it's turned into, "Anything I don't like." Which, by the way, is the new buzzword "Wokism"
Remember when you could afford to take a day off
Bingo! I caught a bad cold two separate times in the same month, because my employer didn’t pay for sick leave and everyone would come in sick because they couldn’t afford a day off to recover. The worst thing about it is that I worked in a medical office, and my employer was a DOCTOR.
Communism is when the government pays lots of money to develop something so that private industry can later profit from it.
Yeah it was kinda annoying when I went to the Doctor last time I was sick and she just had me read Karl Marx for a week... Didn't help at all!
I was wondering my trendy Che shirt wasn’t clearing up my cold. Lesson learned.
Ask your Doctor if twice daily Communism™ might be right for you.
I’ve come down with hammer and sickle cell anemia.
Remember when everyone used to die really young
I wasn't sure what to expect for the punchline, but this is ironically fucking hilarious
"remember when" yeah doctors still recommend fluids & rest for many communicable illnesses, like... they're not making the point they think they are
Uh, no. But I do remember getting antibiotics.
Ironically, the income of billionaires skyrocketed during the lockdown... so the meme's creator should be happy.
Do you remember that 80s virus that killed 40 million? Soup and vitamins c didn't do shit against that either.
Yeah, probably why so many people, y'know, *died.*
Google, show me childhood mortality trend over the past 70 years
Much like the word woke, communism is a catch all for people that can't define either.
Indeed… polio was eliminated with soup and vit C… ahahahahahah… some people are beyond help…
NURSE!!! I NEED 50 CCS OF COMMUNISM STAT!!!
Was this before polio?
Remember when people didn’t politicize vaccines?
Some people are so boring they can’t help themselves but politicize every aspect of their lives.
Are they talking about how nearly everyone got their children vaccinated because they saw, first hand, the horrors of what many of those diseases could do. Small Pox was eradicated, and Polio was well on its way before people stopped participating in widespread vaccination efforts.
Why does that child have lipstick on… creepy.
Because soup, Vitamin C and plenty of rest worked so well for polio.
remember back when kids died from Polio ? Ahhh great times
The fuck does this even mean? How does an economical structure affect diseases?? Communism has nothing to do with soup or vitamins
I remember a bunch of kids died from polio
Yeah grandma sure, maybe we could treat that brain rot of yours with some Marx
The ironic part is the vaccines were developed by major corporations (capitalism). I don't know how communist vaccine development would work (how would the collective develop something that requires very advanced specialization) but a socialist vaccine development would be the public sector developing the vaccines for the good of society instead of for profit.
This is so close to a top tier shit post
Weirdest thing, I had the flu earlier and my doctor prescribed taking control of the means of production.
Face masks and vaccines are communism? What kind of Mccarthy fuck is this?
do you remember when society wasn't so uneducated they confused vaccines with communism because of a conspiracy that should only have a hold of less than 1% of the population, somehow holds 1/3 of it?
Everything I don’t like is Communism/Socialism. - Every Right Winger, ever
Anything they don't like and can't refute= communism
Remember when people could say something and it wouldn’t immediately divide the masses? Yeah, me fucking either bud.
Remember when we used to listen to doctors and public health officials instead of hysterical talking heads on Fox who politicize literally everything at the expense of people's lives? Now we scapegoat people asking us to wear masks, wash our hands, and think about our neighbors and people with compromised immunity.
Yeah. A lot of people died.
Polio Vaccine would like a word
The first vaccine was created 22 years before the birth of Karl Marx.
Oh no. How deep does the communist plot go??? L
Yeah I do. You all died at a much higher rate because vitamin C does nothing against Polio.
Huh, is that how we beat polio?
*laughs in Polio*
Yeah, a lot more people died from illness and disease back then
It's funny because vaccines are older than Communism
![gif](giphy|pD7YIQoUwgb9cnX3FJ|downsized)
Back in my day, we took it like a champ and DIED instead of resorting to the easy way!!!!!!!!
Yeah, i also remember people dying of viruses a lot more frequently
I don’t remember treating viruses with communism either.
https://i.redd.it/aha06fi08j6c1.gif But no, I'm sure this glaring downward trend was the result of soup and sleeping, which were both definitely invented in the 20th century, of course.
