Hello Con/ Jur/d , thank you so much for your wonderful insight. You know, it's funny you say this, b/c I almost thought twice when writing "big tech". I was thinking maybe "big wireless" would be better...but then that also detracts from the names, the companies, individuals propagating the lies and marketing.

Not trying to be an ass, but what would you say instead of big tobacco/ big tech? Would you just mention the names of the people/ companies behind the addictive tech?

What are your thoughts on saying the Military-Industrial complex?

Probably too vague as well...we'll have to come up with something a bit more adroit.

I know, and I'm stuck as well;-) It's the mindset we're swimming in as an ex smoker, who is not a fan of big tobacco and the con job they promoted I find it interesting to gauge people's reactions to this article https://medicalxpress.com/news/2023-10-cdc-depression-mortality-wealth-death.html. Pharmaceutical companies have bombarded us with propaganda on SSRI based on sketchy disproven science for years and yet, tobacco stripped from the sales addiction industrial complex (!?!, maybe, AIC, ha) probably outperforms all the SSRI's, and depending on the delivery system may be safer than some of the 'new' antidepressants. Addiction Technology COINC lol
