What’s with all the Alzheimer’s? It could be all the aluminum in our environment from businesses. pdf.sciencedirectassets.com/272576/1-s2....

We can build outside current systems. This is especially important when those systems have been captured by for-profit businesses.

When did you fall in love with chemistry? For me it was when I had to develop a process to create a molecule and then measure how effective my process was.

It’s not your fault you are struggling. The people’s government is captured by businesses.

Healthcare is a right. Putting healthcare behind a paywall is the sign of a weak country.

An illegitimate government says you have the inalienable right to life and then kills people for “crimes”.

The soul can be sick. And billions of souls can be sick at once. It is a pandemic of the soul that keeps people involved with their own destruction.

You’re right to question “How much can this doctor care about me “when his boss is putting hospital profits before my own wellbeing?”

I want to give you excellent research. That’s why I’m studying research methods and how to do a literature review.

The mind-body is a whole thing, not a split set of things. This is foundational for self-care: the mind-body is an intricate unity. #health #wellness #education #apothecary

There is no state. There are simply people who we pretend have legitimate power over us.

I’ll say it: Cancer and Alzheimer’s rates are probably correlated to the pollution in the air, water, and soil. Now for the scientists to look into this as much as they look into vaccines and Tylenol “causing autism”.

Friendly reminder from your local science teacher: voter rolls get updated, and sometimes mistakes happen. Please verify your registration status! It’s an easy lab experiment with a massive payoff for our community. #EveryVoteCounts #ProgressiveChange

The soul is one of those things that modern medicine ignores to its own detriment. No, I’m not talking religion.

The oligarch-owned media is beginning to definitively turn against Trump. This suggests that the billionaire class has achieved its goals with MAGA. Or that it is no longer served well by Trump. I’m curious to see this narrative develop.

You’re mistaken if you think a simple pill solves every problem. A pill fails to lower sugar intake. It fails to increase total walking time. It fails to change diets. Some health problems are caused by our sick society. There’s no pill for that. #apothecary #holistic

If you’re having trouble sleeping, we find the easiest changes to make first and encourage you to take the small steps. It’s the same idea for systemic change. Do the easy fixes first. Build momentum. Then do the harder things. #medicine #social #change #wellness #life

Stop calling it a climate problem. Call it what it is: organized greed. The planet isn’t dying. It’s being killed for profit. The killers have names. And boardrooms. #ClimateJustice #StopEcocide

Liberals are capitalists. Authoritarians use the state to control society. Liberal authoritarians use the government to control society as they see fit.

This is the only way to justify capitalism: returning value to the community that makes wealth possible.

Healthcare is an essential service. Making it “for profit” means they are cheating us on something we require.

To the folks who recently started following me: Hi! Thank you for following me! I am training to become a research apothecary. My goal is to use this account to promote understanding of historical apothecaries and possible modern approaches to apothecary practice. #traditional #modern #science

Democrats are largely wedded to our current system. It will take either a massive win for DSA candidates in the midterms or a massive no-show at the polls for them to even begin self-reflection.

Finished reading about qualitative research methods, about to read on doing a literature review. I figure that will give way to the in-depth reading about European apothecaries. Excited and eager to keep this project going!

The popularity of “alternative healthcare” is a result of the for-profit healthcare industry. Change the system instead of blaming poor, ignorant, powerless people.

If we have to regulate capitalism because the profit motive gives reason for bad decisions, let’s just get rid of capitalism. We have options: mutualism, socialism, and stateless communism.

Public schools train authoritarians. Prefabricated curriculum and the refusal to train students on science-backed study skills makes it worse.

RFK Jr is the result of for-profit healthcare. The profit motive incentivizes behaviors that create mistrust of modern medicine. Doctors and nurses get burned out, side effects are not properly communicated, and naked greed prevents proper treatment. Lies thrive in this environment.

If it’s okay to exploit the mentally vacant so long as it’s for your ideology, you’re immoral. @muellershewrote.com elder abuse is elder abuse. And taking advantage of people is wicked and wrong.

The for-profit healthcare system lacks the capacity to change the stress-induced illnesses. It cannot adequately address the pollution driving illnesses. The best way to address these problems is by embracing new ways of living. Yes. The billionaires must go.

Psychiatry is a mixed bag. Yes, it helps a lot of people. It is also captured by a for-profit healthcare system.
