      While I agree with the sentiment, there are practical limits.

        So instead we should engage him and his delusions? The story about wrestling with pigs comes to mind.

          Just for ****s...how does one get "addicted" to chemo?
          How many times do you suppose they use it? It ain't once. And every single one costs ten times as much as natural cures.

            If you mean chemo, there's a natural cure for cancer???

              Yes, it's called death.

                Engaging isn't necessary. I don't engage everyone on every little thing, but I do observe opposing views. The problem with echo chambers is that you don't become familiarized with those other views because you've tuned them out makes you blind to them. I've stopped engaging Flaggy because there's only fo far I'm willing to go down the rabbit hole of crazy, but I pay at least passing attention. Perhaps I'm over rationalizing my entertainment here, it's always a possibility.

                    Sorry for the engagement guys. I read and avoid commenting on >99% of things on this site. I have heard most things with regards to alternative medicine etc but using the term "addiction" for cancer "treatment" is somewhat novel. Those actually familiar with medicine know many medications are derived from "natural" sources anyway, especially chemo. Turns out nature is the best killer we have found.

                    If anything...feeding a troll can sometimes aid the rational in developing more solid arguments.

                        I personally like Tim Menchin's line. "Do you know what they call 'alternative medicine' that's been proved to work?.........Medicine."

                          Because if you stop using it you "go into withdrawal" and die???

                          Weird usage of the word "addicted" in that case, even if technically defensible??
