Funnily enough there are a lot of sub average intelligence people in the world and they are all lives worth protecting. Hence why his comments were so insanely irresponsible.
Stonehedge-
People also have an inherent ability to protect and inform themselves-especially when it's coming from Trump.
As with coops assuming Lariam contains chloroquine, and could have googled that for himself, so could the gent who died taken a few seconds to Google and check if his fish tank cleaner had any resemblance to the medicine in question, and, if it was toxic.

sub average intelligence
I don't think anyone is stupid, including people with severe learning disabilities. People do all sorts of stupid things, but I think to explain that it's not 'stupidity' or 'sub-average intelligence' that you want, but generally just ignorance. In this case, there's also trust(ingness), which I think is actually a good quality, even if completely misapplied and quite dangerous in the case of demagoguery and/or irresponsibility in power.

Chloroquine phosphate in aquarium cleaner with various other ingredients does not equal the chloroquine formula in antimalarials.
Come on. If people are so stupid to conflate these then that's Darwinism-there's been public info about chloroquine treatment for Covid well before Trump crack handedly "announced" it.
