Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.

Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
And we're probably, again, a few years away from both MDMA, probably a year or two, after that psilocybin, and being treated for PTSD and depression respectively. You know, we have to wait for the Phase 3 studies, but if the results hold up...
You know, that's where I think the psilocybin story for depression and the MDMA story for PTSD seemed more interesting to me.
I think the the data on um psilocybin for depression, uh MDMA, not recreationally but therapeutically for PTSD, I gain for PTSD and for alcohol and other uh substance abuse disorders is very intriguing and I'm not trying to hedge here and play, you know, but I think it's very interesting.
So, you know, you mentioned um uh in severe intractable depression and there are I think really good data there. There's also good data for alcoholism.
