we can't regulate the scam industry! too many people would lose their jobs at the scam factory!
okay this is real fucking annoying.
CVS wouldn't accept a return on even unopened "personal care items", so since I'm not getting my $20 back I tried it anyway, and... it has a real ingredient?? which it smells very strongly of, listed among the "inactive ingredients" on the label, in a different spot than the "active ingredient", which is homeopathy "12x" nonsense.
what the entire fuck is going on. actually I'm gonna tack this onto the top level
Well... If it has a smell, at least it's not "diluted 1000x to make it 1000x stronger" homeopathy
the naked cynicism of "we know our fake remedy is bullshit and doesn't work so we added a thing that does kinda work and called it 'inactive'" is fucking getting to me
what pisses me off is that the homeopathy companies don't try to convince customers that the magic water thing works, they try to imply that they're an herbal supplement or regular medication
like on some principle I think you should be allowed to buy magic water if that is what you actually want, but when people came into urgent care saying "I took the Oscillococcinum but I still have the flu," 100.0% of them believed that long word was the name of a real chemical of some sort, not a confusing way of saying "a duck's liver was nowhere near this"
currently roaring and stomping around like Godzilla with a caffeine-withdrawal headache because the homeopathic grease (guaranteed to contain no Sepia officinalis, which I did not have to look up to know it's "cuttlefish") I purchased actually does have tea tree oil, which of course doesn't do everything they say it does, but it at least does something! they listed it as an "inactive ingredient". I am going insane
oh oh I just realized the reason "no trace of cuttlefish, guaranteed" is the homeopathic "cure" for an itchy rash and now I'm even more annoyed
