WHERE'S THE TYLENOL BAN? Enough with the bashing of #kratom! This SEVEN year study found only one (1) kratom-only U.S. death. See >> ow.ly/I8AB30rlMvD. Contrast this with the acetaminophen in your medicine cabinet: 150 U.S. DEATHS PER YEAR! >> theatlantic.com/national/archi…

What does #Elections2020 portend for #kratom? Where will the community find new leadership if Democrats gain control of the White House, Senate, FDA & DEA? Where will younger, more diverse & centrist voices come from? Look for more from us here... #ElectionDay #diversity #FDA

Whoa, @T_Johnson56. Ease up on the "Reefer Madness" slasher attack on kratom. The DEA tried and failed to ban it in 2016. Taken no such step since then. It is no more addictive than chocolate or coffee. How about getting both sides of the story? ow.ly/B9Qx30rgoi9

If corporate executives ever deserved to go to jail, it is the people who set in motion the opioid epidemic in the U.S. They hid the risks, they knew the danger ... and they milked it for every $$ they could. ow.ly/sIKG30rg9i8 #PurduePharma #opioidcrisis #opiod #oxycontin

In 2016 when the DEA issued their notice to make #Kratom a schedule 1 drug I truly thought no way we little people could win that battle. Now over 4 years later and we are getting to the real science proof behind why we need to #KeepKratomLegal. pharmacy.ufl.edu/2020/10/20/kra…

NOT CREDIBLE: "The (Scientology) Foundation uses (its) ...Truth About Drugs campaign materials for drug education & has been described as 'discredited pseudoscience' ... w/out 'pharmacological basis'..." BS about kratom: ow.ly/dww230rcJjv BS group: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundatio…

The ludicrous invocation of "kratom addiction" as a defense the large-scale looting of travelers makes about as much sense as the "Twinkie defense" for murder. Neither kratom nor Twinkies are guilty as charged! ow.ly/xuYp30rcxQK

This is the most preposterous #kratom story in a long time: 1. Kratom is not addictive. 2. No "growing number" of deaths are associated with kratom. 3. If you are using $110 worth of kratom a day, you are doing something wrong. ow.ly/jTIS30rbmai #fakenews #kratomfacts

THOUGHT FOR TODAY - Fear mongering can elicit the Chicken Little Syndrome, in which serial predictions of catastrophe backfire and result in paralysis. Also defined as "a sense of despair or passivity which blocks the audience from actions".

"Cocaine-like kratom"? This is what happens when the media is not engaged and educated about a helpful botanical that studies have shown is no more habituating than coffee or chocolate. ow.ly/z7kK30qPjos #kratom #keepkratomlegal #badreporting #publicrelations

It would be a crying shame if Covid-19 claimed kratom as one of its victims -- as the results of snake-oil salesmen pushing kratom as a coronavirus cure. This is how a few bad apples can take down a botanical. motherjones.com/coronavirus-up…

.@mholzapfelTV: I am calling bullshit on this, which uncritically quotes some bozo there as saying local crime is due in part to #kratom. Show me a police report proving that. Do your job. You're a reporter, not a stenographer. ow.ly/Momk30qDPs7 #keepkratomlegal@joerogan

In crazy case of logic, CBD is the only thing keeping this kratom store open in Denver. You have to read this to believe it! #kratom #keepkratomlegal #Denver #CBD #CBDoil ➡️bit.ly/2W7yDHg

The best way to make the #kratom case is to stick with the science. Linking kratom to such hyped & unproven Covid-19 "cures" as chloroquine/hydroxychloroquine puts us on the same level as those who twist & politicize science to attack kratom. We can't attack methods that we use!

FACT CHECK: "#Hydroxychloroquine & #chloroquine as treatments for #Covid19 are not yet backed by reliable scientific evidence... Trump’s incorrect comments... on this unproven treatment provides potentially false hope... The president earns 4 Pinocchios." ow.ly/kLqb30qxROX

Thanks @DrewTurner73! Kratom is just like any other issue where 1 side dominates the media. Reporters try to cover both sides, but only when 2 sides are evident ... When kratom's side of the story is asserted effectively, the coverage balance shifts & can go positive, as in '16.

@DJMF420 @MarcSwogger Also the prior publicist that AKA had was @stapf who did amazing work and does for a lot of industries. I'm sure he would love to hear about how he had to pay the media to do stories.

Missouri town uses COVID-19 as excuse to shut down CBD/kratom shop ... even though it allows curbside pickup of food and alcohol at local restaurants. ow.ly/quq930qxtpM
