I don’t understand why you’re being downvoted for this clarification. The top level comment is making a claim about meth(amphetamine), someone replies with information about dextroamphetamine, and replies aside from yours are clearly seeing that as confirmation, when it’s not.
Actually maybe people are mixing it up with Dedoxyn? Which is prescription grade meth?
Edit: it’s Desoxyn*
He’s being down voted because both are amphetamines that have been used by militaries. His reply stating “it’s ADHD medicine” ignores that it is an amphetamine used by the US military during WW2 to keep soldiers awake for days at a time with reduced need for food.
The person corrected the original post from meth to dex. Saying “it’s ADHD medicine” in context of its military use is wrong.
Maybe I missed an edit
