My extraordinary compassion prevents me from hurting people’s feelings.
Does osteopathy help against hurt feelings?

There’s little evidence that it does.

Literally it does. DOs are currently undertaking an unprecedented study of how empathy changes over time in medical students. Oh and yes, it's scientific and evidence-based.

No, you were saying DOs were crap doctors because they didn't renounce that part of their training because in your eyes it's quackery.
Well, I still stand by that statement. But of course a DO can still do a great job. I was merely saying that I wouldn't trust somebody who does evidence-based medicine AND some form of "alternative medicine" because, in my opinion, it spoils their credibility. I assume you grant me the freedom to choose myself whom I trust?
I think it's pretty obvious you have an internet understanding at best of the difference between European osteopaths and American DOs, so you really shouldn't even conclude that much at present. But yeah absolutely, free country, yours and mine!

Well, and you seem to have no understanding on why that difference doesn't matter at all for my point.

It seems obvious that you have, at best, an internet understanding of freedom.

Good place to start. The stakes of free speech, the freedom upon which all other freedoms are based, are fought over in battlegrounds all across that landscape.

Sir Tim Berners-Lee would be happy to hear that.

It's true.

You don't have a Bush watercolor?

Still, for me this is a new maximum of Trump cringe-worthiness. A comparison to the personality cult in, say, North Korea doesn't look completely absurd anymore.

If this interests you, there is also a commemorative coin to commemorate Trump's historic summit meeting with North Korea's leader Mr. Kim Jung Un, available from the same gift shop:

Trump’s physician, Dr. Sean Conley, said in a memo shared by White House officials that the president “as a precautionary measure” has “received a single 8 gram dose of Regeneron’s polyclonal antibody cocktail.”
“He completed the infusion without incident,” Conley wrote.
Regeneron’s experimental drug cocktail has yet to be approved for wider use. Results shared by the pharma giant just this week showed that some non-hospitalized Covid-19 patients who took the two-antibody treatment saw reduced viral levels and improved symptoms.
Regeneron confirmed in a statement to CNBC that it provided the dose to the president in response to a “compassionate use” request from Trump’s doctors. That term refers to a way patients can access experimental drugs outside of clinical trials.
Trump has also been taking zinc, vitamin D, melatonin, a daily aspirin and the histamine-blocker famotidine, Conley said in the memo.
“As of this afternoon the President remains fatigued but in good spirits. He’s being evaluated by a team of experts, and together we’ll be making recommendations to the President and First Lady in regards to next best steps,” the physician said.
Conley’s memo added that first lady Melania Trump, who also tested positive for Covid-19, “remains well with only a mild cough and headache.”

My favorite so far is ‘my thoughts and prayers are with the virus’.
But on to more serious topics, how do you think it effects the race?

Already, Trump says he will hold in-person campaign rally in Florida this Saturday:
That would be only 10 days from when Trump first tested positive for COVID-19. He seems very determined to spread it around.
