1950 to present antipsychotics whose severe side effects are written off as crazy talk.

[โ€“] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 year ago

I have taken an antipsychotic for insomnia at different times. Can you elaborate on what you're saying? It isn't clear to me. Severe side effects, however, have been extremely clear at different times. Are you saying those are downplayed to the point of gaslighting?

The US dollar with no backing value

[โ€“] naught@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah? What should back the currency? What would have happened to the dollar if it was still pegged to gold? What is the difference between an artificially scarce natural resource and a currency backed by a superpower?
