That’s an enabler of hucksters and frauds. “Doctor” Oz, “Doctor” Phil, Deepak Chopra, the list goes on. She’s a cancer on society.
Who is Oprah Winfrey

That is accurate

FWIW, Doctor Oz is actually an accomplished surgeon. But it’s like how I wouldn’t trust my gastroenterologist to diagnose why my back hurts, y’know? No one should trust whatever bullshit he spews outside his narrow scope of highly specialized knowledge.

His medical accomplishments are greatly inflated. All of his publications he is one of 20 middle authors that had little to do with the project. Journals stopped allowing this, but it’s very common for MDs to put their names on papers they had no reason to be on. Oz tried to make “therapeutic touch” standard of care in his clinic.
Therapeutic touch was disproven by a 11 year old student at a US science fair.
In the end, Columbia medical staff signed the petition to cut him off from Columbia.

Ben Carson was a brilliantly gifted neurosurgeon and a complete fucking idiot at the same time…
Just because someone has the word doctor in their name doesn’t mean they know what the fuck they are talking about re: any other subject outside their field of expertise

What’s the point of these posts?
Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 3 days ago
I’m trying something new idk. I make funny posts with hundreds to 1000+ up votes all the time. Then occasionally I make a ragebait post. The general idea on these is a bit different. I’m curious to see what the general lemmy population has to say about influential figures/platforms. Posting it here based on moderation 1, allows me to do it and 2, allows people to answer is whatever way they want (mostly). If they get 1000 votes down or up, who cares. I just wanna see what the general reaction is. I guess starting out with Joe Rogan and Reddit were probably a bit too incendiary.

Why are you surprised by Lemmy hating Joe Rogan more than Reddit?
serpineslair@lemmy.world 3 days ago
I guess, but you’ll likely find people downvote due to the style of content, rather then the contents of said post.

I applaud you executing these experiments but please do so with caution and stick to the scientific method.

Basically the unknowing propulsion system for Mingy and Gary from one of South Park’s lowest ranking episodes. Personally ai don’t hate it at all, but I do see why it’s “the worst of a good thing” in many people’s eyes

She had a show, not sure if it is still in production but never really watched it. Often she would give the audience something. A flex of her wealth which IMO is prideful and braggadocios.

I heard the “winners” still had to pay tax on the prizes.
HoneyMustardGas@lemmy.world 2 days ago
I was a tax professional for HR block at one point. If the prizes were under 100 dollars value we are told to tell ppl that they don’t have to report it. Yet, I believe the threshold is really ten dollars. Regardless, how will the IRS know?
