I won’t go into a lot of horrific issues in the USA’s history. All the wars that we have gotten involved it or got drug into. All drug overdoses have gone from about 14K to >110K AND GROWING. “They” talk about OD/poisoning from fentanyl, seldom/never mentioning that the fentanyl analog involved is not approved by the FDA, making it ILLEGAL FENTANYL and never mention that there is some 1400 different known fentanyl analogs.
It is pretty much common knowledge where all those illegal fentanyl are coming from, China & Mexican cartels. The “bodies” attached to all those kilotons of illegal Fentanyl is pretty well known. What we don’t know is all the “bodies” attached to the 2016 CDC Opioid dosing guidelines.
Newest attack on chronic pain community by 41 State AGs that is going to be the next large attack on the chronic pain community AGREEMENT
This agreement was apparently made in the spring of 2022, and was not suppose to see the light day, but fortunately someone leaked it, around April , 2023. The body count that this agreement is going to create, could make the CDC’s 2016 guidelines look like something developed by amateurs.
Coroners have in the past, disregarded deaths caused by under/untreated pain, that caused a untold number of deaths that were most likely labeled as “natural causes”. The deaths caused by the forceful tapering of a chronic pain pts pain medications may never be accurately measured.

What I’d really love to know is, how many people are actually dying of ODs. The #s reported by the CDC are meaningless, as they do not count bodies; they count the # of different opioids in a body. So if an addict comes in & has heroin, fentanyl, & oxycodone in their body, that’s counted as THREE deaths. So one person can die multiple times, a neat trick in my book. Needless to say, they don’t advertise this fact & I’ve never been able to find out when they started that insane, utterly anti-scientific way to “count ODs”. They don’t actually know how many PEOPLE die each year of ODs, b/c they don’t bother to keep track. This whole idea was so insane (& I have a lifelong science background & lots of post-graduate work in science research), that I re-researched it 3 times over the years since the first disastrous guidelines came out. It’s beyond nuts. And is COMPLETELY misleading, unscientific, & nothing but propaganda fodder.
R u f—- serious???!!!!!!!!!!if they have 3 different illlegally bought drugs in system,,they count 1 body as 3 o.d.???seriously,,i mean i’m not surprised,but is this true??!!!!!!!wow,,,,that explain more of their prop=aganda!!!!!!!!!,,,wow,,,mw
hard to believe, I know….I researched it several times b/c I was convinced I must’ve been wrong, it’s so freaking insane. But even a guy in the coroner’s dept in my state (Oregon, God help me) said they do it too.
OMG,,,,, these forced reduction,,exactly Mr.Areins,,have harmed/killed sooooo many….Personally my body is and has been severely damaged by these forced reductions,,This may even take my life,,if this pancreas/heart muscle don’t get thier sh-t together,,and at 60,,,the odds????But to the articles point,,,it has harmed 100000 of us,,,and no-one cares so far,,I never understood,,,how the dea/fed get away w/violating 42-1395,,,for when your calling doctors,,enforcing laws on how much medicine we are allowed,,THAT IS PRACTICING MEDICINE,,,,,I guess thats why they saw fit to sign an executive order stating our medicine is only a medicine for acute pain ehhh???But that executive order in it self,,,IS PRACTICING MEDICINE,,,,ALL I KNOW,,, is we have to get our meds back,,,and those who did this,,shall never be allowed ever again to commit such obvious torture/genocide of the sick,,,,Thus,,,hold all accountable,,,or they will just do it again,,,jmo,,maryw
So, what do we do to prevent this “agreement” from moving forward? Or is that exactly what we’re seeing?
Why did they use pain patients to peddle the narrative? The way I see it, that’s an easy one. I believe that they had to put a “face” on the crisis and there were really only 2 options. We were the preferable option.
It’s no secret that few have sympathy/empathy for people who struggle with drug addiction, and there are only 2 main groups of individuals who use Rx opioid medication. Patients and addicts.
They simply went with the group that would sell the narrative and promote the type of strong reaction that would be required to pull off the charade. A “poster child”, if you will, for their crusade, because having that will inevitably draw more people in. If all you have are numbers and nameless, faceless data, it just doesn’t have the same impact. So they “humanized” it for their own ends.
When they were able to create the visceral reaction to the #’s provided, plus showing everyone those “most impacted”, it stopped people from asking questions that would’ve been difficult to answer truthfully.
Since I first learned of our current fate, I have been utterly astounded by the sheer amount of psychological effort they’ve put into this thing. One thing has been clear to me all along, and that’s if this endeavor had not gone the exact way that it has, I am convinced that it would’ve been stopped dead in it’s tracks because, by all rights, it SHOULD HAVE been throughly scrutinized. But since they were able to produce “examples” to underscore the numbers, few bothered. Too few.
They’ve thrown us all into their neat little basket, and every time we try to climb out in protest, they shove us back in by putting out more propaganda related to pain/pain patients/pain medication/treatment of pain/doctors who provide pain relief.
I realize that some may not view it the same way that I do, but I stand by what I’ve said. I firmly believe that, in order to do as they’ve done, they had to put human faces on the numbers to go along with the horror stories so that people react with emotion instead of stopping to think the whole thing through.
Again, they had to have known that a large portion of the public has little to no concern for the wellbeing of drug addicts. This is evidenced by the common rhetoric that is popular in regards to those who struggle with substance abuse. They’re frequently written off as miscreants who would do quite literally anything to feed their self imposed habits, creating a barrier of apathy, as they’re perceived as having done it to themselves.
I have personally learned quite a bit about substance abuse, having known several people over the course of my lifetime who struggled with it, and I feel for those for whom it is a waking nightmare. However, many people have exactly zero desire to know anything about substance abuse or those who battle with it, for that matter. Of that much, I am certain.
So, if they had gone about instituting their agenda with “junkies” as the selling point for the plan, I honestly do not believe the widespread support would’ve been there. However, put people who suffer from painful diseases and disabilities out there, telling the public how they’ve been “duped by Big Pharma”, people will care about that. Particularly since it relates to the distrust of pharmaceuticals and the medical community, as it stands.
It’s ironic, of course, that they would feign moral high ground when they’re quite literally the ones responsible for doing the worst thing possible to us. But, since they’re doing it under the guise of saving us from ourselves, it hasn’t lost it’s appeal to the masses. People seem to often have an innate desire to “save” others, particularly if the ones who allegedly need saving “don’t realize the danger”. The problem with this debacle is that they’re the ones putting us in danger and calling it “help”.
It puts me in mind of the old saying, “With ‘friends’ like that, who needs enemies?”. Indeed, indeed.
I was unjustly red flagged because I was abused as a
child. I spoke to Dr Forrest Tenant who was upset because, he said, he didn’t write it that doctors should use it for that. It was written that they should refer them to a therapist, not withhold medicine. I believed him.
I am a senior who has therapy and am not a risk. But this doctor who couldn’t be bothered to even refer me to therapy, red flagged me and spread it to local doctors quickly. I went to a rhumey and she offered me tramadol. Her pa said ?60. No. 30. No refills.
I have psoriatic arthritis among other things.
His actions messed me up for the next 20 years. I became uncomfortable speaking with any doctor, uncomfortable with a confrontation.
So I spent that time staying home. Biting my tongue for the pain. I have ultra high blood pressure my doctor here assigns cause to the pain. I am taking catapress 3 times a day along with coreg. My kidneys are a problem, I can no longer get contrast with an MRI. I blame that doctor.
Please. Inform doctors what unrelenting pain with no help can cause. PLEASE. Do not just hide because a doctor says no. It will harm your health in the long run..
