It gets absurd when the guy who's shooting at you from in front with a
machine gun  claims he wants to kill the guy who's shooting at you from
behind with a slingshot.

I didn't say so.  The point is that the pharmaceutical industry can
cure less than they are causing.

My point is simply that the former enemy fades away compared to the latter
enemy (which is "only human", BTW).  The latter prefers to portray the
former as "the" enemy, though.
