Methyl and methylene groups are present in tons of molecules, they don’t make those molecules methamphetamines. That’s like saying people who use olive oil are eating motor oil because they both have the word oil in the name.
Please do not spout nonsense about things you don’t understand.
MDMA has similarities to amphetamine but it’s mechanism of action is different enough that is has a wildly different safety profile and patterns of use/addiction potential. Either drug containing a methyl group is not what makes them dangerous, that word only describes a part of their structure.
I get you want to look clever but know your drugs.
I love your argument. Since you don’t understand drugs. I’m the idiot because you didn’t even realize mdma is methamphetamine even though it’s in the name. lol.
Just because drugs are in the same chemical class does not mean they necessarily share any similar pharmacology. Tiny changes in the structure of molecules can completely change their effect or render them pharmacologically inactive.
XTC is a methamphetamine.
Go read about what mdma is and the history of ecstasy.
MDMA is a different drug entirely from methamphetamin. It contains some of the same molecular compounds but that does not mean it’s the same drug.
And? That’s such an odd response.
What do you the MA stands for in mdma?
3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine is the proper name.
That’s not how chemistry nomenclature works.

I understand it just fine.
You appear to think it’s not an amphetamine which isn’t true.
And your weird oil explanation. lol. Clown world.
Methane is basically an isolated methyl group.
Are your farts classified as methamphetamine?
And is far safer, with much different effects to actual meth. You’re trying so hard to look clever, but you’re a fucking idiot.
It’s classified as a methamphetamine.

Clown.
Methamphetamine is not a class of drugs it is a specific drug.
MDMA and meth are part of the substituted amphetamines class which includes hundreds of molecules, some of which are drugs some of which are not.

XTC is a band.
