  • Kennedy said he planned to dedicate money generated from a sales tax on cannabis products to “creating wellness farms—drug rehabilitation farms, in rural areas all over this country.” He added, “I’m going to create these wellness farms where they can go to get off of illegal drugs, off of opiates, but also illegal drugs, other psychiatric drugs, if they want to, to get off of SSRIs, to get off of benzos, to get off of Adderall, and to spend time as much time as they need—three or four years if they need it—to learn to get reparented, to reconnect with communities.” The farm residents would grow their own organic food because, he suggested, many of their underlying problems could be “food-related.”

    Hol up. They've gotten rid of all the people who used to pick fruit in rural areas, and now they want to send arbitrarily diagnosed "addicts" to these rural areas to live for "free".

  • Ooh good one. I wonder what the flat earth explanation for this is.

    Anyhow, the persistent belief in something like a flat earth isn't really a question of evidence.

    To most people the way we understand the world around us is through the scientific method. As in I have not personally observed the results of testing vaccines on thousands of people to ensure that they are safe, but others have and others have reproduced their findings, so I'm happy to accept their published assertions.

    However, there's plenty of people for whom the scientific method is merely one belief system amongst many, and you can simply choose which group resonates with you.

    Additionally science tells us all sorts of unpleasant things about ourselves that we don't really want to hear. Why would I want to listen to "science" telling me I need to exercise more when this nice lady on facebook tells me that this crystal can realign my chakras and restore my health.

  • Yeah it really was pathetic.

    Like they took a stand while it was cool, but then capitulated rather than face removal.

  • Sure but we don't link to paywalled services do we.

  • Honestly these micro-dick edge lords renaming things has been a pleasant diversion over the last few weeks.

  • I quite like the name "Kraft VegemiteTM presents New Australia".
