Who did I name call and how? Calling someone ignorant isn't exactly name calling in my opinion.
Why would we have free access to pill testing kits? We will still be putting money into the hands of criminals instead of back into the system, and the drugs will be the same quality, we'll lose the same amount of money and we'll just gain the assurance that the pill is indeed shit (something that's pretty easy to assume)
As far as long term effects go, the government won't fund any studies. How's that for safety? We have plenty of money, and we know plenty of people are taking this substance, but we'll just ignore it and let them face the repercussions blind! Sounds productive!
As far as it's values in psychotherapy:

Plenty of studies about the harming and healing power of MDMA. I never said we were close to understand the way MDMA
interacts with our brains. We know fuck all about the human brain, really. There's so much more to be discovered.
PTSD and a lack of empathy are big ones, but that's not all.
I might update the links with better ones later but I can't be fucked at the moment. The information is out there, and if you don't want to actively seek it out that's fine, but really it's not my responsibility to shovel information onto your screen.
Same goes for the government, I can't be fucked typing out my point of view at this point in time. If you think otherwise, that's fine, I mean everyone is entitled to their own
informed opinion.
I don't think the government has my best interests in mind at all.
