CMV: You're a horrible person if you're using the COVID-19 crisis to tout a pseudoscientific diet

Everywhere on the internet, you have people using the COVID-19 crisis to promote a pseudoscientific diet. Whether it be the keto diet, veganism, carnivore diets, etc, there is always an individual that claims their diet makes them immune from the virus or protects them against its effects. These people claim to have done their research and that science supports their claims, but what they're actually doing is conducting an enormous case of confirmation bias while conducting studies of one. Their claims aren't backed by real science and they're preying on people's fear of the virus to get them to join their dietary cult. Not only is this categorically devious but it's also a form of medical quackery. We're in the middle of a pandemic. Millions of people's lives are at stake. This is not the time to be exploiting people's fears for the benefit of your dietary agenda. These people are horrible and should be called out for their nonsense.
