The #bbc 's reporting of recreational #drugs use and #drugPolicy here https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-64408790 is astonishingly misleading.
They cite a study comparing the relative harms of #NOS and #poppers but if you check the actual study (produced by #davidNutt 's excellent #drugScience) you can see it rates #alchohol as 10 times more harmful than both.

Why would you leave this very salient fact out of your reporting unless you were willfully pushing #drugsAreBad nonsense?

He also told me there was "nothing close to lsd in the nature" and I couldn't stop him. I literally took lsa. It's all over the Internet. But he wouldn't listen. Sometimes people know things that you don't and it's alright really 😭 #drugscience
“People are dying because of ignorance.
They are dying because unremitting propaganda is denying them vital safety information.
They are dying because legislators and the media are censoring the science, and are ruthlessly pushing an ideological agenda instead.
They are dying because the first casualty of war is truth, and the war on drugs is no different.”

So I’ve recommended this book twice to service users/patients/clients this week for completely different reasons. I’m thinking why not start a essential #drugs #reading list!
