Oops, this is some misinformation, friend. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/rfk-wellness-farms/
Exaggerated claims designed to provoke a reaction, even in humorous contexts like this, make it harder for us to perceive and react to actual dangerous threats that might come our way. And we're definitely going to need to have an accurate and truthful view of the world in the coming days.
It's a good joke, it's a great joke even, but even so, we shouldn't spread misinformation.
I was posting more for the funny reply, rather than to share the original article, but I can put a note in the post body that the pictured quoted article is misinformation.
Tfw you say something and everyone hates it and then someone else comes by and says the same thing in a slightly different way and everyone likes it 😑

What an absolute asshole of a journalist you have to be to twist someone's words like that.

If trans people and Adderall people are outlawed then there will be no tech industry left.
You are forgetting about the furries.
Nah, I think we're included by virtue of overlapping Venn diagrams.
Are there any cis furries in tech that aren’t on amphetamines?
The ones that are were probably all grabbed up by the US Navy to work on the Nuclear Submarines.

So far all of the orange appointments are looking like videogame minibosses
I get the anger, but this idea wouldn't be out of place in European countries like Netherlands and Portugal. Drug rehabilitation is a positive, left wing policy.
Sign me up to be player one then so I can go full Wolfenstein on these Nazi assholes
Lol my company's entire development department will be gone.
The same RFK Jr. who credits heroin for his academic success.
Some people do actually initially start using opiates as a performance enhancer. Thats not really a crazy take. I know people with similar stories in the first months of their use, before the negatives started outweighing the positives.
They missed it because they were already taking liberties on what was actually said.
To be clear, I wouldn't put it past him to do that, but that isn't actually what he said.

As a person with ADHD, let me just volunteer the following information; the absolute last thing you want... the last thing you want is for a bunch of people with ADHD to be held on a boring farm. Without medication!
The phrase "herding cats" doesn't even come close. And ADHD is often comorbid with sleep phase disorder, which means I'm 100% alert all night without the medication that helps me sleep! That gives me lots and lots of time to be a problem!
I imagined they were inferring like "if you're taking Adderall we need your hyper efficient ass to come work on building a pyramid or something". Which i have to say, a team of properly medicated ADHDers would be the most streamlined project ever.
