Talk:Massimo Mazzucco

Behold, for the sloth_monkey hath created this article on Wikipedia so that all may enjoy its glorious splendor!

I heard about Massimo Mazzucco from G. Edward Griffin at his website RealityZone.com. There he is selling a copy of Mazzucco's Cancer: The Forbidden Cures DVD.

Also check out the Italian Wikipedia page on Massimo Mazzucco at http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massimo_Mazzucco.

Guilty of manslaughter
There's a sentence by a tribunal, so i'd ask IP 86.157.141.147 to avoid editing the voice claiming some undefined controversy, he was found guilty by a court so please avoid useless claims. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Idonthavetimeforthiscarp (talk • contribs) 17:46, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Since Novembre 2012, Tullio Simoncini is undergoing a second trial for fraud and manslaughter after he killed Luca Olivotto in a private clinic in Tirana (Albania) where the quackery-doctor was giving his treatments with sodium bicarbonate without authorization. Here the report of the events from one of the most important Italian newspaper: - Toffanin (talk) 14:18, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Reasons for my changes
It is not true that the “The allegations made by Mazzucco were … disproved,” as stated in the previous version of the page. In fact, the article linked to support this claim has been fully debunked by myself. The same goes for the following statement: “Attivissimo detected data manipulation, omissions and several contradictions, while highlighting the lack of any supporting documentation to the claims made”. I have debunked each and everyone of these claims. Since this is obviously a matter of opinion, and not a proven fact in either direction, I have removed the entire paragraph according to the BLP general guidelines.

I have also removed the last paragraph, in which my alleged “statement of racial female superiority, which can also be framed in some sort of gender racism,” has been taken out of context and blatantly misinterpreted.

I truly wonder what was the ultimate goal of those who compiled my bio in first place.

For this reason, I invite users/administrators who make new changes to my biography to immediately inform me at this email address: redazione[AT]luogocomune.net

Thanks

I have added some recent scientific information which makes more balanced the "criticism" for supporting Dr. Simoncini's therapies.


 * The medical researches that you cited (namely "Bicarbonate Increases Tumor pH and Inhibits spontaneous Metastases" and "Reduction of metastasis using a non-volatile buffer") clearly debunk all your claims; those researches are not discussing a possible cancer therapies based solely on Bicarbonate, but a possible usage of the bicarbonate as a treatment that could reduce metastasis of neoplasms after a radiation or surgical therapy. Here we are speaking of a new mechanism (based on bicarbonate) to improve the efficacy of chemio/radio-therapies, nothing else. It could not be a new cancer therapy as the neoplasm must be removed by a surgeon, then the patient is threatened with chemio/radio and bicarbonate therapies. So far, I only see quackery claims without proper scientific proofs and a clear self-promoting propaganda for selling Snake_oil, enough to call a speedy deletion request for this article. (let's repeat the obvious: Wikipedia is not a vehicle for self-propaganda, neither a manual, guidebook, textbook, or scientific journal, nor an indiscriminate collection of information) Toffanin (talk) 15:04, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Hubris
The suggestion to censor this information by article deletion is a depressing reflection of the human condition. So many people think they know the truth and take action to control the minds of others for them to behave in agreement with them. It's sad when humble uncertainty holds no grounds to allow for the peaceful dissemination of contrasting information. --— sloth_monkey 01:37, 23 April 2013 (UTC)
