Lysenkoism was pretty bad. But, he only killed communists, so I feel like it nets out to be neutral.

The only people I've ever known who received narcan eventually died from an OD but I don't blame narcan. We should do more as a society to help addicts.

No, addiction needs to be prevented and addicts need to be prevented from causing harm to others. Once someone's an unironic addict, the biggest favor anyone could do for them and the rest of the world is administer a fent-cyanide mix.

Gaseous plasma model of stars, the root cause of modern cosmological schizophrenia and a huge waste of money through its use in fusion energy research.

Maybe dismissal of cold fusion by mainstream physics? They do produce excess heat in their experiments occasionally, although they fail to do so consistently. Perhaps there is some unexplored phenomena at work there.

Yikes this. Watched a thing on this. We are still having the effects of it even though it's been banned for decades.

We tell them not to do it. They give us the finger and do it. We give them the resources to get off it. They abuse the resources to stay on it. What more do you expect of us. How about some of the responsibility lay with the people doing it?
