did that dude just say stem cells? hahahahahahahahahahahahaha oh brother

Fucking FDA and big Pharma having a stranglehold on vitamins, exercise and su-...and ..sunshine..
Damn that FDA and their suppression of...*checks list...sunshine?
Was the solar eclipse an inside job?!?
I think it's like the FDA having just reasonable guidelines on how much UV you can safely be exposed to. RFKJR prolly thinks sun lotion prevents all the healthiness from the sun and crystallises your amygdala or something along those lines.
They hate sunscreen because skin cancer good apparently
Can’t wait for deregulation to result in a tech bro reinvesting his Facebook money into an Uber But For Psychedelics startup that incentivizes mixing 9% more sawdust into my shrooms to maximize yield
In all that crazy, there's, shockingly, two good points:
-
Psychedelics. There's at least anecdotal evidence they're good for treating certain traumas / PTSD. So, yeah, we should be looking into their medicinal applications. But is it the FDA or the DEA that's cockblocking those?
-
Stem cells. Abso-fucking-lutely yes. But wasn't it the "pro life" people holding that up?
I mean psychedelics really shouldn't be suppressed as much as they want, but with him gutting all actual medical science, they're not gonna be helping much.
They have tons of potential and power, but binging mushrooms for three days and dancing in circles isn't probably the only way we can utilise them. (I'm not saying it's a bad one, just not necessarily suited for everyone.)
And actually if psychedelics gets lumped into his shit it might just be a step back for research on psychedelics when eventually this craziness of his blows up in his face. Hopefully before he implements any of it. Or even gets into office.
Clean foods is also a good thing
Right, but we already have that so I left it off the list. Not that there aren't things that slip through, but that's mostly a matter of enforcement and ensuring compliance (both things I do not expect him to take seriously).
2: Yes, buttt there are some issues, but afaik do not throw the baby out with the bath water -> https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/02/29/the-stem-cell-scandal
- Yes.
- Also, yes.
