You can't fix stupid...not even by drinking your own urine
And, yes, "dinner with Trump" contests are a scam...DUH
meet Christopher Key.
Christopher Key drinks his own piss.
Key is also a QAnon dipshit and an anti-vaxer. and Key has a bone to pick with Donald Trump, because in Key’s piss-soaked mind, Donald Trump is not sufficiently anti-vax.
Key was so angry with Trump that he entered a “win a dinner with Donald Trump” contest in the hopes that he would get a chance to tell the former president off in person.
the contest had a $500 entry fee, which Key eagerly paid.
but of course these “dinner with Trump” contests are scams. there’s never a winner. Key could have pissed on five hundred-dollar bills and eaten them and gotten the same result.
enjoy your piss, Chris.
It’s been said- by someone far more intelligent than Christopher Key- that a fool and their money are soon parted. And, sincerely, what else could you expect from a clown who drinks his own urine and believes that “dinner with Trump” contests aren’t Grade A, world-class, top-shelf, USDA Prime scams?
Yes, there’s a sucker born every minute, and our intrepid hero was apparently a sucker for at least an hour or so.
Key, a legend in his own mind, is an evangelist for urotherapy, which he sells as, among other things, able to cure COVID-19 (it doesn’t).
Some Anti-vaxxers will do anything to avoid taking the coronavirus vaccine, including, reportedly, drinking their own urine.
The Daily Beast reports that a prominent figure in the anti-Covid-19 community, Christopher Key – who calls himself the "Vaccine Police" – is now telling his followers to drink their own urine in order to cure themselves of Covid-19.
As the highly transmissible Omicron variant tears through the country, it has largely been the unvaccinated who have become serious ill and who are filling hospital beds and dying on ventilators. For the vaccinated, a bout with Omicron, while unpleasant, is often mild enough to be comparable to the flu or the common cold, which is itself a coronavirus.
Anti-vaxxers like Key (it seems more polite to call him an “anti-vaxxer” than the more accurate “crackpot”) have long refused the COVID-19 vaccines. So, rather than taking a well-researched and proven vaccine that works, Christopher Key drinks his urine, which doesn’t and for which there’s no proof of concept.
No one has ever said there’s a minimum IQ requirement to become a MAGA warrior. Quite the contrary, in fact.
“The antidote that we have seen now, and we have tons and tons of research, is urine therapy. OK, and I know to a lot of you this sounds crazy, but guys, God’s given us everything we need," Mr Key said in a video posted on his Telegram account.
“[T]ons and tons of research,” eh? No, he doesn’t because, for some reason, Keys has never produced said research. And, even if he could, it seems unlikely it would stand up to any scientific rigor.
Christopher Keys is a fraud. Who knows what his schtick is, but his latest thing is injecting himself with his own urine. Of course, I’m not a doctor, but that hardly seems the sort of thing that most folks with an MD behind their name would recommend wholeheartedly.
A US anti-vax blogger is using a new type of injection for protection against COVID-19: urine.
In a video, Christopher Key sets a jar of urine aside and picks up the urine-filled syringe and sinks it into his arm while talking to chiropractor and self-declared guru of urine therapy, Dr Edward Group.
Key then tells Group to "talk about the stem cells" which Group goes on to do, talking about their regenerative and repair benefits as Key continues to push the urine deep into his body.
Urine therapy or urotherapy is an alternative medicine practice that involves drinking or massaging urine into the skin for cosmetic or medical purposes. However, there is no scientific evidence supporting urine therapy as a cure for COVID-19.
This is not the first time Key claimed urine was the antidote to the virus - in January he urged his followers to drink their own urine to cure COVID.
It’s important to emphasize that despite Key’s claims to the contrary, there is NO proof that either drinking or injecting urine does anything at all (except perhaps staining one’s teeth) to cure COVID-19.
Or anything else.
Who is Christopher Key? According to a cursory search of the Internet, Key is a prominent anti-vaccine activist who calls himself the “Vaccine Police” and advocates for urine therapy as a cure for COVID-19.
Key claims that urine contains “antidotes” and that “tons of research” supports his views. Unsurprisingly, he never provides any credible scientific research to support his claims…quite possibly because there may not be any.
Mr. Key doesn’t do his credibility any favors with his novel (read: dismissive) approach to the legal requirement to obtain a driver’s license to operate a motor vehicle on public roadways.
The urine drinking "Vaccine Police" anti-vaxx influencer Christopher Key apparently does not believe he needs a driver's license, even though he's currently driving across the country.
Mr Key - who made headlines earlier in the month after advising his anti-vaxx followers to drink their own urine to combat Covid-19 - spoke withThe Daily Beast and revealed that he did not think licensure applied to him.
"I travel," he told the outlet, drawing an empty distinction between travel and driving. "My car is not a car. My car is a wagon, with wagon wheels."
Right…and my 2013 Lexus is a spaceship that needs to have its booster rockets recalibrated, but it’s unlikely that you’ll see me heading to Cape Canaveral any time soon.
He claimed that someone is only "driving" while they are engaged in commerce, a definition that is unlikely to fly if a police officer asks him for his license and registration.
Mr Key has been traveling around the country in a car covered in graphics - including a huge "Vaccine Police" label and another calling Covid a bio-weapon - on a mission to conduct citizen arrests of Democratic governors. Thus far he has been unsuccessful.
“The only people that need a driver’s license are truck drivers, Uber drivers, FedEx drivers, but if you understand your constitutional rights, you have the ‘life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness,'”….
Mr Key insists he is a "free man living on the land," and that as such, his driving without a license is "no crime."
The "Vaccine Police" evangelist's views are similar to those held by Sovereign Citizens, a name given to individuals who believe they are not subject to a huge swath of US laws and who often hold anti-government views.
Former President Donald Trump fed an anti-vaccine movement and is widely held to be responsible for roughly 750,000 COVID-19 deaths. Christopher Key was convinced that Trump wasn’t anti-vaccine ENOUGH. So, how many of those deaths could also be laid at Key’s feet? How much responsibility does he share for creating an atmosphere of fear and ignorance where fear of science and medical research reached truly epic and ridiculous proportions?
It’s one thing if Key wants to pursue an unproven therapy on himself, but to push it in public forums without any scientific proof in a way that could lead others to make harmful decisions is borderline criminal. He’s deceiving those honestly pursuing alternative healing and those looking for any hope to cling to. That’s about as reprehensible as it gets.
Christopher Key noted that the 'urine cure' has been around for centuries. "God's given us everything we need. When I tell you this, please take it with a grain of salt," he said.
Christopher Key called the COVID vaccine the 'worst bioweapon' he has ever seen. He also noted that he drinks his own urine. The anti-vaxxer said that people might think now that he has gone 'cray cray.' Key supported the 'urine therapy' advised by him and called people who take vaccine 'foolish[.]'
The bottom line is pretty straightforward: There’s no scientific basis for urine therapy. It can be harmful to one’s health, especially if the urine is contaminated or contains toxins. Drinking urine can cause dehydration, kidney damage, urinary tract infections, and numerous other complications. As for injecting urine, let’s not even go there. How about we proceed from the baseline that it’s at least as bad, if not worse, than drinking urine?
As has been true since the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the best way to protect yourself is to remain current on your vaccines and follow public health guidelines, such as:
wearing a mask
social distancing
frequent hand washing
COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective and have been tested on millions of people worldwide. They aren’t “bioweapons,” but they can prevent severe illness, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19.
Unfortunately, no vaccine will protect one from stupidity and arrogance. Nor is there any protection from fools save for education. Educate yourself if someone is telling you something that doesn’t sound right. Find a trusted online resource or talk to a medical professional whose knowledge and guidance you value. Get your information from sources you know will steer you in the right direction. Google searches and YouTube videos will only lead you down a rabbit hole of ignorance and fear.
And ferchrissakes, whatever you do, don’t drink (or inject yourself with) your own urine. If you’re desperate for something awful, head to a grocery store and buy a jar of instant coffee. It’s every bit of awful, but at least it’s harmless.
The next time you need medical advice, don’t take it from a guy who pees into a cup and then drinks it, ‘kay?
