It's called reading with a critical eye. They talk about OxyContin, then talk about the hundreds of thousands of opioid deaths. If you're not paying attention, you'd think OxyContin caused all of them.


OxyContin was certainly a catalyst to this entire epidemic.


Certainly? I think the point the parent was trying to make is that the evidence damning Oxy is not nearly as compelling as people claim & the way this article is worded lends credence to his claim.

I’m no expert on this & have seen enough oxy abuse to be skeptical but saying it’s a certainty seems unfounded in the face of the argument.
