I can get on board with the cocaine and laudanum. Not so much the mercury and bloodletting.
"You've got ghosts in your blood and you should do cocaine about it"
"But I've already been doing cocaine about it"
"Do more cocaine about it"
You're right... I'll take cocaine as a win in an anti-intellectual dystopia.
I feel like this comment implies people stopped doing cocaine…

We've been on that path for a bit now.
Although bloodletting is still an actual treatment for stuff, but now it's called therapeutic phlebotomy. (source, I have to do it for high blood count)
