I personally suffer from a similar, but different, kidney disease called IgA. There is no cure for that one either. Martin Shkreli wrote on Twitter that when he was deciding where to focus his research on, he was between IgA (what I have) and FSGS (what he's treating).
I know he reads Sup Forums so I'll just say thank you. For the record, I had vehemently defended him on Sup Forums from day one, without knowing he was working on the disease (or knowing I had one).
I always thought it was extremely uncouth that even US government institutions like the FBI joined in the public bullying of a man trying to do good.
All because they disagreed with the means (capitalism).
Matthew Foster
This is how they treated him for it.

>Martin Shkreli, who was vilified (& arrested!) by leftists for raising the price of a drug in order to spend money for research on other diseases, has now made a huge advancement with a new drug for a rare kidney disease. based

>by leftists I hate lefties too, but lets be real, everyone was hating on this dude. Im pretty sure Trump said that he didnt like him
Jaxson Phillips
What a cuck he gave niggers money
Jeremiah Myers
Wait until you find out how much the treatment will cost.
Jackson Nelson
What rare kidney disease? My daughter has a rare kidney disease
Alexander Bailey
FSGS is rare? My doctor told me it was one of the leading causes of kidney failure, caught mine earlier though so I'm good for now.
William Watson
Berger's
Robert Wood
assburgers?
Jack Wilson
Fuck no, I immediately assumed he was based after the media started shitting on him. Like 15 minutes of researching the guy, I confirmed my suspicions.
Charles Rogers
>defend him at dinner conversation once >dad listens to what I have to say >SJW Bernout sister gets triggered as fuck because she doesn't understand anything
Shkreli did nothing wrong
Asher Watson
did he personally make this advancement or did he just buy the rights to it?
Ryder Howard
The first based Albanian since Skanderberg.
>SJW sister You know what to do.
Bentley Lewis
She turned 18 last week and hasn't been home since, I'm sure she's out doing drugs rn
Jeremiah Parker
>kidney
Well he is albo...
Ian Johnson
>On Sup Forums >Albanians being praised
Reality is collapsing.
Jace Richardson
Yeah he seems to know what he's doing business wise , and I defended him basically the whole time too.
But he's like some wanna be wigger irl.
Cooper Jones
just watched the video of him laughing at (((congress))) pretty funny
Alexander Stewart

It's gonna be ok, bro.
I like Shrkeli too.
We can arrange a greekfag meet-up sometime if you want to.

Aiden Sullivan
what company is her running now? I want to buy stock in it
Kayden Sullivan
Well, sorry OP, but it is rather shitty of someone to spike a the cost of a life-saving drug by 2000%, regardless of political beliefs
This is cool and call, but he still seems like a prick
Jack Wright
What he did was completely legal and was a smart business move.
Also immoral, cruel, and greedy as fuck. Good that he's doing good things with the ill-gotten gains though.
She's getting stuffed with cock. If she's Texan I might have been responsible for one of the muh dikkings (I'm white though).
Reel her back in before AIDS
Charles Hernandez
>Being this edgy and contrarian
Eli Diaz
He gave the drug away for free to people who needed it and didn't have insurance.
Owen Myers
>by leftists lmao, greek education
Kayden Phillips
Mind showing me some proof? That may sidelined change my opinion of the guy.
Christian Clark
*sincerely, raped by autocorrect
Sebastian Murphy
Proof and he's a swell guy
Hudson Cox
martin shkreli hasn't discovered shit
Levi Gray
There is a very cheap competing drug now -AND- he made a new drug for a rare disease in the process
Christopher Brown
>every butthurt aids loving fuck came charging at this man. >only leftists love aids with a passion.
lmfao, syriza supporter
Christian King
Use Google. The media did everything they could to crucify the guy.
Find one person who didn't get the medicine because they couldn't afford it. Surely there must be hundreds of articles.
The guy screwed the insurance companies over in order to research a better drug than the one he was selling. Because big pharma refused to research it, given that the market was extremely small and not profitable at all. Only a few thousand people at any given time in the US needed the medication.
Carter Lewis
>he made No.
Jason Ross
"uring recently announced discounts of Daraprim for hospitals, and Shkreli says that for people without insurance it will cost only $1 a pill. "
>Martin Shkreli >making an advancement in anything medical related He's not a doctor or a scientist.
David Baker
>The Egyptians didn't built the pyramids, the black slaves did! I thought we're past this argument
Cameron Harris
I know he explicitly says so in the one Vice interview. There's also another video from one of his streams where he lays out the entire situation to (IIRC) a guy who has HIV and was pissed at Shkreli for all the wrong reasons.
Zachary Brown
I genuinely believed, given how backwards health insurance and medical is in the US, that the pill wouldn't be covered under insurance
Xavier Gonzalez
Most of us fell for the media manipulation. After I actually figured out that the guy was based, I started going back to the news articles which initially made me dislike him. Turns out 90% of the article was blatant lies or simply copy-pasted lies from American newspapers.
Plus he has a very punchable face, which makes him very easy to dislike.
Nathan Rodriguez
>By a Greek AND a Brit
This is unironically the nicest piece of praise that Albania has gotten on Sup Forums.
Xavier Jenkins
It's also worth noting that the drug was presented in the media as some kind of miracle cure that was absolutely essential to every HIV patient, while in reality it's an anti-parasitic drug that treats toxoplasmosis, which is a parasite people mostly get from handling catshit and not washing their hands properly. It is used by a very small group of people, and only some of those people incidentally have HIV.
Brandon Anderson
KEK
More like he invested in the company that employed the scientists who went to actual school for biochem, etc and THEY discovered it.
Stop fan boying for your ugly jew NEET faggot subhuman wall streeter, he had LITERALLY nothing to do with it other than investing in a company that was going to discover it anyway.
You kids are retarded.
Leo Morgan
Greek shilling for a shqip Wew lad
Christian Murphy
...
Robert Young
He bought it so niggers couldn't hear it. He said in an interview he hasn't even listened to it.
Leo Wood
>getting baited this hard
Austin James
Research that surely would have been done without investment, right? For drugs with virtually no market? Because researchers don't need to pay rent and couldn't otherwise find employment churning out Viagra variants for Pfizer?
Jayden Lee
Slaves didn't build the pyramids in the first place, that's a common myth.
