I never went as far as to defend Gwyneth Paltrow, but after her Hot Ones appearance I created a post (which I will link in the comments) where I suggested that she’s done no more harm than male grifters and that the dislike of her as a person was primarily due to misogyny. That’s before I learned about her promotion of these unproven “vampire facials”. Now an unlicensed clinic performing this procedure has given at least three women HIV. You guys were right and I was wrong.
she didn’t invent the process, and the problem here is safe and sanitary practices, not the fact that it’s woowoo fake science grifter shit that paltrow likes to profit off of…
i dunno, it’s a stretch to turn it into a “til”… but she should be culpable for spreading snake oil anyways…
I hear your objection to making this a TIL. Do you have a suggestion as to a better community to host this?
not the onion? there’s a lot of “weird news” and anti capitalist stuff it would fit in…
