@bennomatic I’m currently watching #painkiller about a company called #purdue and their opiate painkiller #OxyCotin. As a dutchman I did not know of this before, but the problem is capitalism. Quite shocking to see how a company willingly and knowingly kills people.

I’ve not watched all of it, but the problem the prosecutors face is finding a crime to fight this legal drug, that kills.

There may be some parallels with #meta and #x here with respect to the greed/ capitalism part.
