the only problem with drugs is that it ruins society and productivity as a whole

that is true

but having people go to shady drug dealers, buy chinese fentanyl and whoring themselves out isn't great

if you had to go to a place where everyone was normal and just gave yyou the stuff, asked you how you were doing, maybe gave you a sanqwhich

idk why ppl go through the trouble though

i dunno m,an

the problem is, if you make it too accessible, you will ruin your next generation

perhaps

specially as parents are shit

and don't know how to parent their kids

short term vs longterm, i think it'd be better longterm

drugs make sense if you are rich, if you already made it

a little bump in the road where we get it together as opposed to decades of just treating the symptoms

if you can afford to slack off

people are free to mess their lives up as it is

for most, it will just be bad though

pushging into the fringes and into the hands of evil people isn't great

and funding the drug trade

I understand where you're coming from. It's like, yes, we don't want to ban alcohol, but we also don't want people to be alcoholics.

it's a really tough thing to regulate, because some people will always be heading towards selfdestruction

*free will, am I right?*

that's the part I don't get from the left in general

That damnable free will.

they are all about controling what young people can or not do

and giving free shit

but when it comes to drugs, "let people ruin their lives if they want to"

true lol

it's just wild to see things flipped, instead of like hoity toity christians being the squares, now it's the godless morally superior folk

let me make it simple. If there was no welfare, I would be all open to drugs

all of them

what I don't accept is people claiming that others are able to ruin their lives to then say that everyone will have to pay for it

*I do think it is some ironic stuff, that China is supplying a lot of opiates now: after being fucked by opium in the early interactions with foreign powers*

it's not like that isn't expected

the late game of an authoritarian society is always drugging their people

what a whacky world we live in

a stray solar flare or a precise emp and western society would fall to its knees

only if we let it

tbh, we just have to have some safehaevens that survive

after that the others will have to copy

the population density and the divded people would be a nightmare in most major US cities

Where I live it wouldn't be so bad, in Canada, but even major Canadian cities, like Toronto, would be in for a division(the video game)-esque period
