@datavortex The medical industrial complex is going to do whatever it can to distract us from the fact that every facet of the entire system is perverse and broken in more ways than can be counted. This is just the topic dujour.
@datavortex I'd like to see a man-in-the-street style interview asking people to indicate on an unlabeled map exactly which river and sea they are referring to. And then pressed on what that implies. These people are just regurgitating phrases they have no frame of reference for.
@themortal_coil @HammarProd @bradflix86 @EdKrassen That's a much better primer of what a ghost gun actually is I think, a lot of people have misconceptions about what actually makes a gun a gun. People should know a ghost gun takes more money or skill than one would think.
@datavortex I wonder about those people and others who work in govt jobs. It seems to attract a certain type of person. Do they start out moribund or are they slowly suffocated by a lifetime of bureaucracy and having to work with the public?
@datavortex The article does a good job of listing their failures, initially labelling phenylephrine as effective was probably one of them. So to be fair, perhaps they're getting it right this time? Oral PE is a placebo at best and a snake oil waste of money at worst.
