  • From what I can tell from the article, it’s not clear what the guy was selling. Maybe it was the claimed drugs, maybe it was water, but he had no idea and he was not only unaware, but also was making claims (“highest quality” and "made in the US’) that were patently false.

    So he wasn’t so much “providing a path to medicines” as he was fraudulently making the claim he was doing so while putting all his customers at risk of harm.















  • Barrier frustration is not the same as resource guarding. Think of it more like a reaction to anxiety from not being able to get to or interact with something of interest. Over time that anxiety gets displaced from the barrier to the object itself, and can also build up into an extreme short-circuited reaction.

    But when the barrier is removed often the anxiety goes away and everything is fine.
