Dr. Oz Made Millions Even Though He's Been Called A 'Charlatan'

In 2014, a team of medical researchers released a report proving that 60% of Dr. Oz’s advice show lacked scientific basis.

1,300 doctors signed an open letter calling him “a quack, fake & a charlatan”

This is right-wing nonsense packaged as science. They started with the conclusion they wanted to "prove," and warped the data to give the appearance of legitimacy. It's science inverted & perverted for political purposes.

This report is totalitarian pseudo-science, aka corrupted science in the service of far-right authoritarianism. Who commits most of the political violence in this country has been clear for decades. It's not the left. It's not those of us who support trans rights and realities.

This is what happens when conspiracy theorists are handed power.
