Ok so there are drugs called "analgesics" that make pain go away, and there are other drugs called "anaesthetics" that turn off your perception of pain, and there other drugs called "dissociatives" that straight up disconnect your perceptions from your body.

I had major surgery and was in the hospital, for rapid pain relief they gave me something called "Dilaudid". I said I had pain level 6 or 7, they gave me some D, came back after a bit and said "what's the pain at?" I said "6 or 7", they got concerned and I said "oh don't worry I don't care any more".

When they gave me oxy, the pain level actually went down.

I don't encourage spending a week in the hospital purely for research purposes, but it was very educational to have had that experience.

It’s not even remotely true and easily disproven.

So, there’s this thing called science. And it pretty much dictates all of what we know about everything.

And this thing called science states that there is zero evidence (outside of Facebook memes) that in a NORMAL functioning human body, is digestion a painful experience. Now if you have a CONDITION- that causes digestion issues such as IBS, or GASTROENTERITIS, you may have trouble digesting food and pain can result.

But in a NORMAL FUNCTIONING HUMAN BEING-

This won’t be the case.

No they just didn't actually read the comment and decided it said something it didn't, but tbf to them the comment wasn't actually relevant even if it does explain a related concept.
