G. 🐴🦋🇺🇸🐩 Adam Gentry Many don't believe it, but have either been terrorized out of treating disabling pain with cheap, safe, effective meds that've been around for decades, or been crushed by the constant barrage of misinfo by medical industrial complex whose sole agenda is profit over patient care.

I’m so grateful for Kevin Pho, M.D. and his amazing network of physicians and healthcare professionals who work tirelessly to tell important truths to the world.

Here’s my truth:

Probably should drop a reminder - 100% of the proceeds from my June memoir sales for Hindsight will be donated to My Friend's Place. Trying to end youth homelessness and help the young people who are currently struggling. We’re up to $1600 already, let’s keep going!

The worst part about this story is that when my bff Michelle read about it in my memoir she was like “yeah 3 family members had policies on me when I was homeless.”

Like, that shouldn’t be legal. We were minors. Full stop.

TBE ENTIRETY OF THE WAR ON DRUGS IS WASTE.

ABSOLUTELY. FRIGHTENING.

Prohibition propaganda has seriously undermined & manipulated drug education, drug prevention, drug demand and drug treatment.

It has distorted our understanding of 'drugs', addiction and giving help to people struggling with addiction

The vast majority of deaths in respect of banned drugs are CAUSED by bad drug policies that are rooted in intolerance, abstinence, stigma and drug prohibition propaganda

When policy is rooted in Harm Reduction drug deaths are rare

The vast majority of people who use state approved or state banned drugs do not have an addiction problem

Most are adult users

The system of enforcement is strongly biased to target poor people, people of color, indigenous people and minority ethnic groups.

The privileged are rarely stopped, searched, arrested, charged, convicted, found guilty or sent to prison.

This fiercely imposed system of oppression is a Drug Apartheid

It results in state led arrests, punishment, incarceration, exclusion (and in some countries death) - imposed upon those choosing the 'wrong' the drugs

This is the BC gov cowardly backsliding I warned of last Friday on CBCEarlyEdition @CBCStephenQuinn.
Since the start of Dilaudid prescribing, drug users have been ready to help government improve its program so it reaches more than 4% of drug users & has better options.

As you read this account of Philly police routinely arresting & charging small time dealers, remember that there's strong evidence to suggest the people they serve are now at significantly higher risk of overdose.

🧵Our new study finds that when police seize illicit opioids to get them off the street and save lives, the **opposite** often happens: fatal overdoses increase over the next three weeks in the vicinity of the seizure. The link to the article is at the end of the thread.

REMEMBER:
 
➡️75% of hospitals are hiding prices, but less than 1% have been fined
 
➡️1 in 3 Americans are in medical debt, the No. 1 cause of personal bankruptcy
 
➡️90% of Americans support healthcare price transparency
