    How are things so bad in the US ? I’ve taken is 1 advil for a sports injury, sleeping pill once, mom gave me a tylenol once, and a week of painkillers after a surgery - that’s in my entire life. This is the norm in Europe, Asia, SAmerica. Most people don’t pop antidepressants, diet pills, Ritalin, Adderall etc

    Is it a consequence of moral degeneration ? This always blows my mind. I think that’s why Americans are such unhinged lefties. All those pills will make you into LibsOfTikTok material

      People are being told, all the time, by practically the whole of society, that this is the way to live. It’s a powerful social mechanism. Why else would people volunteer to test out an experimental vaccine? And that happened all around the globe, not just in the US.

        Are the spiritual/natural/hippy types also doing this ? If not, then I would actually expect them to behave more sanely than the TikTok crowd
