Well-funded lobbying groups drunk on their own power, politicians closing their eyes rather than suffer social media pushback, idiot celeb cheerleaders who're about to go very quiet, pharmaceutical companies chasing profit, medics who abandoned ethics and should be in the dock.

This is ronald reagan’s fault for closing down all those mental institutions

Per the article, this story took place in Japan, not the United States.
In addition, the title of the headline is misleading as the man did not “transform” himself into a Border Collie, he simply put on an expensive, hyperrealistic Border Collie fursuit.
