    First off, anyone who spells "disease" as "dis-ease" are quacks. I've yet to find an exception to this rule of thumb. Second...WTF? This doesn't even make sense! 🤦‍♂️https://twitter.com/BlagenLogin/status/1110635265444458496 …

    Disease is dis-ease of your body. The complications are merely just symptoms of an issue in your body. Epidemics are just people who live similarly coming down with similar complications because they live similarly.

        By "issues" they mean "malevolent spirits". By "similarly" they mean "sinfully" aka eating sugar maybe. Germ theory of infection=suckers. Bubonic plague=detox.

        I guess if you ignore mountains of proof that bacteria, viruses, prions, genetics and parasites cause diseases, some of this might work, but it's still very weird.

        Dis-ease = those who cannot handle the mildest discomfort. I.e. most of those I see in urgent care.

        Lol I use "dis-ease" cause I'm dyslexic and words with a lot of vowels suck. But all it is is a spelling hack
