Their belief is that drugs should be released to the public in early stages, let the people be the test subjects, and only regulate them AFTER problems arise.
This is all part of their longevity cult, which is being hampered by drug regulations and stopping them live forever (seriously not a joke)

Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

KEEP SHARING YOUR STORIES about increased ACA premiums due to the disappearance of subsidies. The stories clearly are having an impact, they help people feel less helpless, and they create solidarity that leads to action.
Mine went from $395→ $821. What happened for you?
