'Alternative cancer care' provider Stanislaw Burzynski accused of selling false hope in USA Today investigation

So to be clear your statement I replied to has none of that context, even though you did make it in earlier posts. It wasn’t even a matter of missing context, it’s that even if unintentionally, you were making huge sweeping statements, and to that I feel like the data I provided clearly rebuts the statements you made. (E.g “the success rate in the cancer cure biz in near zero”) - given that you still haven’t really provided any sources to back that up.

In the specific case of deadlier cancers still proving to be very difficult, I would agree that yes, there are significant problems still, but your statement about the war against cancer being misconceived is, I think, unfair. The media interpretation against the war on cancer is certainly misconceived, but no cancer researcher shares that view - investigations into treatements are almost always targeted at either any shared traits between cancers, or very specific investigations into specific cancers, both of which are valuable investigations. If you feel that this is misconceived, can you provide an alternative to the current state?
