  • “it’s true that a lot of people can handle heroin” is the only message you have successfully sent. All the rest of that won’t be read, and even if it is, it’s still not as insightful as you seem to think.

    Some kid might destroy their life because of what you wrote. You’re not only unconcerned with that, you think you’ve somehow been helpful. 🤮




  • Why isn’t everyone becoming a junkie?

    Because firstly, not everyone has access to those drugs, and secondly, anti-drug messaging has been somewhat effective. Ask 50 random people if heroin should be legal, probably 48-49 say no.

    everyone having trouble of getting rid of an opiate addiction, tried to mask some other problems with it.

    This is victim blaming, even worse than before. Fucking yikes.

    So, why do they do it?

    There definitely are people really susceptible to addiction and decided to try it once and never stopped. Because there are a lot of mixed messages in the world about drugs. Many movies and musical acts romanticize drug abuse. Also, life is hard, people are looking for an escape. The last thing we need is people spreading the message that heroin “isn’t that bad”. Young kids are sometimes on this platform and are susceptible to a toxic message like that.

    You make it seem like I’m a tee-totaller or something and I’m not. I’m just against the message that hard drugs “aren’t that bad”. It’s harmful. Less people should try highly addictive drugs, not more. Just because some people can “handle it” doesn’t mean it’s a good idea to promote.
