    Being against actual therapy would be an anti-science position to take. Being against a drug being used to paper over psychological damage brutal capitalist exploitation creates is not. Hope that helps clear things up for you.

      Its not like therapy is only good for the ales of capitalism, And it’s not like people don’t need therapy from communism.

      I remember when foxconn was having a string of suicides from their roof, and their solution was to put up a net. That is what I would describe as “papering over the problem”

        And I explicitly said that there’s nothing wrong with therapy of itself. Meanwhile, Foxconn is a Taiwanese capitalist company last I checked. Not sure what that has to do with communism in your mind.

          Well maybe the tibetans or the uyghurs could probably use some therapy then

              You’re unironically saying that only people in capitalist countries need therapy and people under communism simply don’t get depressed?

                Nope, that’s just a straw man you’re making because you don’t have any actual counterpoint. What I’m actually saying is that mental health problems caused by capitalism should be treated by dealing with capitalist exploitation that causes these problems instead of papering over them using drugs. Evidently this is too complex a concept for you to comprehend, so only thing you can do is bleat about communism while providing further examples of capitalist exploitation like Foxconn.

                  Obviously capitalism has problems, and obviously fixing them would help. But its not like depression would end. And its not like people in China arnt depressed and if psychedelic therapy was used there to help people, I don’t think you would be shittalking it. The foxconn factory I’m talking about is in shenzen, so why don’t you advocate for psychedelic therapy there? Clearly the horrors of capitalism are also ravishing China, so do they not benefit from psychedelics?

                    Nobody is arguing that depression would end. Again, this is just the straw man you keep trotting out here. Try engaging with what’s actually being said for a change.
