"the other side" didn't say anything negative about CQ or HCQ - and instead (if you had actually listened to their message) tried to get people to NOT take it themselves, to NOT hoard it, to NOT prescribe it a prophylactic when that is an unknown (this depleting existing supplies).

That is what "the other side" was saying.

We all saw the same news. The hammer has come down quite hysterically against chloroquine. Trump is usually a reliable liar: I presumed that journalists were banking on that fact and on disputing him as a safe way to get attention. And not doing their research.

Difficult to watch, as someone familiar with chloroquine, knowing they were spreading mistaken information about the side effects and blowing the risks well out of proportion.

I say you are wrong, though maybe this is the line we should be using if we still think we can tiptoe backwards out of Trump's chloroquine trap.

I repied to somebody saying essentially the same thing as you here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22760840
