    Jordan Peterson claims that medicine COULD be overall a negative for humanity. He has no evidence, and he could be wrong, but isn't it mind-blowing that HE COULD BE RIGHT? After all, it is the 3rd leading cause of--wait what? https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/are-medical-errors-really-the-third-most-common-cause-of-death-in-the-u-s-2019-edition/ … https://twitter.com/LitAnscombe/status/1371888864076369926 …

        This is me bending over backwards to accommodate the possibility he has a point: There are a number of ways that modern medicine prolongs life and reduces suffering at a cost, and if you discount those two things as unimportant, I suppose the costs can be sold as a net negative.

        Let’s medically manage the STEMI then. Because modern medicine kills. Yes.

        He had an addiction to bezodiazpines.He went to Russia to put into a medically induced coma as a treatment to cure his addiction. What he was addicted to was his game on the speaking circuit.
