I engaged in good faith, made a nuanced point, and you open with an insult? I appreciate the knowledge you bring, but I’m not exactly sure what you’re defending here. Breathe man, we’re all in this together.
I opened with a rhetorical question, not an insult. The answer is obviously "the same as I consumed before it was legalized" - presumably zero fentanyl use for you whether it's legal or illegal. I was not implying you do fentanyl lol. I was implying your decision not to do fentanyl has nothing to do with it being illegal.
99% reading this thread is not the problem. They are not taking your hypothetical offer.
But there is a small slice of the population that would take your offer. The small percent of people that would take more would have devastating effects on a community.
My point is that it's always available whether it's legal or not. It's always available. It's just a question of how much violence, impurity, and price gouging you want to create by making it illegal. That's the only lever of control available. Abuse of prescription drugs is arguably a bigger problem than illegal drugs.
