    You call it insulting, I call it saving the lives of children and avoiding date rape. Seems like most people are on my side.

    On top of that, the whole antibiotic resistance thing I mentioned elsewhere.

      This makes no sense. I’m not allowed to ingest medicine because you intend to date rape people?

      As for antibiotic resistance — sure! If there’s a medicine whose consumption on the individual level has some sort of effect on others, then you get to regulate it. My ingestion of anti-depressants has zero impact on anybody except me. Face it, a thousand years from now an enlightened humanity will look back on things like our bizarre corporate prescription system and think we were unethical baboons.

        You are absolutely allowed- with a doctor’s prescription.

        And since most people agree with that stance, I guess you’re surrounded by evil.

          We had to wait for people like you to die out to end slavery and now we will wait again to end the corporate prescription racket.

              An accurate assessment of reality.

              What do you want me to say to you? Yes, your moral compass is broken but thanks for making all our lives miserable by funding the drug cartels?

                I don’t want you to say anything to me.

                Although I don’t think the insults are productive.

                    Okay? I’m unemployed and I don’t care what plants you eat.

                    And I’m still not sure what you’re achieving by insulting me.
