No.
"No open borders and fewer work visas," does not equate to "Mexicans are sending rapists, let's build a wall and lock them in cages." That's not even close.

I don't agree with restricting work visas because I've seen the benefits they have to Americans. But that's a far cry from Trump's extreme positions on immigration from building a eall, a Muslim ban, ICE raids, and more. Has Bernie called Mexicans rapists?

milkman refuses to take meds

no one probably realizes the origin of this meme.

Amphetamine basically has the same affect on the human body as Methamphetamine only less severe.
I was prescribed a trial period of Vyvanse by a Psychiatrist.
I failed a semester-load of classes at the same time. (I stopped showing up.) I thought maybe there was something wrong with me so I thought I would go to a Psychiatrist for help as a last resort.
My Psychiatrist believed I had severe ADHD so he told me to take Vyvanse for a few months to see if it solved my issue.

While on Vyvanse I literally felt the symptoms of Meth. My heart was pounding out of my chest, I was manic, behaved impulsively and had a ton of energy.
I used it for cram days, midterms and finals for about a semester and a half. All nighters for huge projects.

It came to my attention that all the drug really did to help me was give me energy and I found that a lot of the time I would end up procrastinating anyway with the energy. I would end up cleaning my room, cleaning the house. Cleaning other people's houses.

I started to believe and still believe that all it does is give people energy and that extra energy would literally help anyone on the earth. I believe I was misdiagnosed or maybe that ADHD is commonly misdiagnosed and rather there are other things at play like confidence, motivation, work ethic, values and so on.
I also had to make a decision if my life was worth continuing in the way that it was if I needed to take essentially METH to succeed. And I had to consider if the long term damage on my health was worth it to have more energy.

So I started to rationalize in my head that the only thing stopping me from succeeding before was effort, not necessarily because I was incapable or my brain had something mentally wrong with it.

So I used that new found confidence to replace the energy of the drug. And I got As for the rest of college for the most part.

I cut out a lot from the story, but that's the gist.

I made a topic explaining a little bit of my experience and I questioned the legitmacy of some adhd medications and diagnosis and a poster has been memeing it ever since

How does Trump calling Rosie O'Donnell fat affect your life more than legalizing asbestos?
