I haven’t gotten far enough in the comments to see it, but I’m a bit miffed that rich assholes can admit to doing lsd on the national media and be fine, while poor people go away for years for a couple grams of marijuana…
Hi, just in case you were wondering, drugs aren’t by default good. They carry risks of all sorts, from killing your liver, cancer, death, addiction, a crutch to avoid dealing with shit, or psychological problems. Too many problems to list. The drug community is usually the first to blame their own when something goes wrong by citing failure to follow some broscience or other old-wives wisdom, or just act like it’s not a problem caused by the drug, just the user. What, didn’t you do a full family psychiatric history before taking (drug) and having a psychotic break? Well, damn…not the drug’s fault.
All that said, I’m not anti-drug, if people want to do that stuff that’s up to them.
No different than someone trying to sell me on drinking more or that alcohol is ok. Ok, maybe I’ll have an extra beer or three, and if someone says that alcohol isn’t great…they’re right. Even if I don’t really want to hear it.
Yes we seem to have gotten to the point of liberalism that “drugs are good”. No, illicit drugs are generally not good, but there are circumstances where they can be useful or better than the legal alternative. They need to be regulated and treated like a health issue rather than a criminal one.
Lots of drug bashing folks here

They can’t make money from their racket if they fix the problem by treating it as a health and social issue.
idk I feel he’s giving drugs a bad name tbh
