MODERATORS
Nah, it's almost as if proving a treatment is "safe and effective" is the entire purpose of a phase ii clinical trial.
If you want pharmaceutical conspiracies to chase, follow the money. The point at which they are trying to "program" you is when the drug hits the market and commercials come out. It's not that these products are ineffective at this point, just that they will do just about anything to capitalize on them.
Pharmaceutical companies are by no means clean and trustworthy, but your conspiracy is literally just a description of marketing and advertising, which I agree is a plague upon our society.
