This is literally a crazy stretch bc even if the vending machines did charge… that’s literally the same situation as getting this medication from the pharmacy and it’s CERTAINLY less expensive than calling in paramedics. Like unless it was ridiculously price hiked, all this does is make the medication more readily accessible

Idk, “sorry I’m cynical 🙈🥰” is just not an impressive excuse to me for not reading beyond the headline, making a snap reactionary judgement, and then bashing what’s objectively a good thing on a public forum

‘We put lifesaving medication behind a physical paywall because capitalism and fuck you’

#especially bc everyone KNOWS the busybodies are gonna have something to say about this #is medicine for an already super stigmatized condition #why add to the negative clamors #with a complaint that has absolutely no basis #even if you’re allergic to reading the whole article nothing in the headline suggested the price would be any greater than any other source #I just hate the trend of commenting on something without even skimming the actual article #what happened to simply remaining quiet when you don’t know wtf you’re talking about #idk hating bc of an imaginary problem you assumed was present is just crazy #for an initiative that you know is already gonna have the white pta mf’s in a tizzy #so much reactionary behavior all based on assumptions and misinformation #like it literally would’ve taken 10 seconds to figure out if your gripe had any actual basis before posting #and now people will see that post and assume you actually looked into it and know what you’re talking about #and for what??#I hate privatized medicine as much as the next guy #but this feels more like fishing for likes with a trendy complaint than real criticism #bc again to genuinely criticize something you have to ensure you’re not fighting an invisible boogey man #fear mongering #misinformation #reading comprehension site slowly becoming the didn’t read it at all site
