Scott Adams 78, has passed away.

Tuesday, January 13, 2026

Scott Adams, creator of the "Dilbert" comic strip, who became controversial for his right-wing statements, has died following a battle with metastatic prostate cancer. He was 68. Members of The Scott Adams School (formerly called Coffee With Scott Adams) shared the news of Adams' death on Tuesday. Adams started writing blog posts praising Donald Trump in 2015, and his daily video podcast featured a range of conservative guests. His writings and podcasts began to question the Holocaust and oppose the COVID vaccine.

And nothing of value was lost.

Adams did not go into detail about his treatments, other than saying the anti-parasitic medications ivermectin and fenbendazole did not work for him. There is no evidence to support the claims that ivermectin " which was falsely touted as a treatment for COVID-19 " can treat cancer.

It's hard to believe that horse paste didn't work.

Ivermectin to treat cancer?

God damn Trump supporters are morons.

I think more MAGAts should try it.

Ha. Worth over ~$20 million and still could not defeat death with ivermectin?

I am NOT rich and still alive at 68.

So I guess win!

Womp womp.

Scott Adams had the money to fly to Europe where his medication was approved.

A multimillionaire could afford an air ambulance with a private first class medical crew if it cost $300,000 to $500,000, right?

Here are the zeroes: $20,000,000.

Plenty of loot left over for a 78 year old man in recovery.

I think conservatives should treat all maladies with ivermectin. I'm extremely pleased with the results they keep getting. They get to own the libs and we get fewer conservatives. Win-win.
