    “War on drugs” proponents are the worst among us.

    I genuinely couldn’t agree more. Rare to see this.

    And the insipid part is that they don’t realise just how much its fucking cover society. Pretty much all organises crime is funded through drugs. Cartels just wouldn’t have income without them. If there we’re legal networks, everything would be safer and there would be a metric fuckton less crime. Just think of all the gang crime in the US. What is it based around? Drugs, ofc.

    Not to even mention the benefits to society when it become socially acceptable to do serotonergic substances instead of drowning in solvents every weekend.

      Yep. We have to wait for these boomer-brain uneducated morons to die out so we can make progress in society.

        I once managed to talk over a guy who was like 70-something back then (and it was like 15 years ago). He repeated literally every bit of 60’s propaganda. We drank a lot, talked a long time, but I did finally manage to get through to him.

        But yeah, that was once.

        Have to actively fight the propaganda and make them ashamed of supporting something they don’t even know they are supporting and what it’s doing to the world.
