Yeah I think people who don't know any better also don't realize that they aren't just "painkillers". I was so confused before what the big deal is cause people kept calling them painkillers, and who doesn't want to kill pain right? Sure they kill pain, but they also (can) induce extreme euphoria, and then extreme depression and horrible physical side effects in withdrawal. If they could somehow separate the opioid analgesic effect from the euphoric effect they'd be much less risky to prescribe for pain. Suboxone kind of does that, but even addicts on sub maintenance can shoot through it. The shit is evil.

Heroin addicts flirt with death every day while weed addicts flirt with going to 7\11 for doritos and being lazy every day. Lumping them together is just nonsensical which is what it seemed like gravy is doing.

So unethical, which is why if I recall some people went to prison for a long time over it

I mean the official symbol of medicine is the caduceus, which symbolizes merchants and thieves. The powers that be love to leave plain sight hints or even blatant admissions. Then they sit back and enjoy watching the oblivious take their word for it idiots call everyone else conspiracy theorists

Be real careful with creating a parallel structure of bureaucrats authorized to lock people in cages for exercising their Constitutional liberty.

Why can't you just make it a crime?

Why would someone accuse you of being a conspiracy theorist just for saying all doctors are simply pawns of international Jewry?

In a rare moment of agreement with horza, the "god damn jews" stuff is always weird whether it comes from the left or right. Jews do have somewhat of a claim on persecution when you can find people of almost any political or social persuasion who have some broad vendetta against them.

And no I'm not jewish myself.

Also horza and I's avs look funny next to eachother. I like to think of it as his being an image of him reading my posts, and mine is an image of me reading his (although its clearly george costanza)

Biden worst prez ever

Also real talk, Sotomayor's ignorance on covid is really alarming and disturbing. 100k kids hospitalized, many on ventilators? That's not even remotely true.

Supreme court justices, regardless of politics, should at least have to possess the ability to think critically and skeptically and investigate pressing, pertinent issues before they give any kind of ruling on anything, or even an opinion. The utterances they make carry so much influence, even just off the cuff.
