Hey remember when the Nordic countries called out Bernie Sanders for saying they were socialist, clarifying they were capitalist, not socialist, and dunking on Americans for not knowing the difference?Socialism is doing just fine in nordic countries. In fact, thriving. Purely being one or the other is problematic. Folks just throw socialism, communism, etc around without even knowing what it means.
The USA is already very socialist for example but the folks screaming how evil socialism is probably never graduated 3rd grade.
Veitnam and China is also doing great under communism. Its not the failure you make it out to be. It didnt last many times because there was political and military resistance to it.
Yeah, good times.
Your theory makes no sense. Cancer research is spread around millions of people in over a hundred countries globally. Suggesting these researchers are all being taken out by hit squads because they know of a magic pill is straight up lunacy.But if there were a technology or cure-for-all cancer pill. The person/people holding that would disappear or be in the obituaries overnight. The Pharma industry is worth trillions of dollars globally. You'd need some huge backers to go against them.
I rather like my approach better. Don't release the information for peer review, or announce any news of your findings. Better to distribute the information about the technology/cure to every corner of the internet. Extremely difficult to control information online.
Nothing is kept secret. Hell, look at Red Lung. The leaks over the Wuhan lab. Even in a time of crisis, with the origin being a totalitarian dictatorship, and countries actively trying to suppress information (taiwan warning of the disease back in December and not being allowed to speak by the WHO, social media actively censoring dissent that we have proof of thanks to the Twitter leaks) that information came out.
Do you REALLY, HONESTLY think a disease like Cancer, which every country has a vested interest in curing, which has been worked on by thousands of institutions, has been able to keep this cure under wraps from the hundreds of millions with a literal life or death interest in it for the last 50+ years?
Reeeeealy? It's a belief that is not only ignorant but is also offensive to anyone who has had to suffer through the disease, directly or indirectly.
In reality: Cancer is a very complicated disease. There are over 200 forms, and because it is a mutated strand of DNA that causes it, it is different in every patient. From our genetic makeup, to how our immune system functions, to how we metabolize poison, everything is individual. This isnt a bacteria that is the same infection in 10 million people or even something like 'Rona where a set of mutating strains spread rapidly, it is a highly individualistic disease that reacts differently in everyone. That is an actual nightmare to treat, let alone cure, and people would rather come up with bizarre conspiracies involving shadowy organizations rather than admit its a terrifying disease that we currently cant guarantee a fix for, and since we have gotten so used to curing everything, a disease we cant cure hits like a freight train.
