As for drugs, nenjin dawg, the fuck you supporting rich assholes pushing drug war propaganda for exactly?
The idea that you won't hold people who purchase and use drugs accountable while you will? prosecute people who distribute doesn't make sense to me.
I wouldn't prosecute shit outside of financial crimes, actually, wage theft, tax harbors, vulture capitalism.
Retributive justice DOES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING POSITIVE FOR SOCIETY.
It serves to provide a bottom end of awfulness to keep workers happy accepting shit wages for shit jobs because there is always worse, making any number of methods people might try to feel less awful into a crime just further criminalizes being poor meaning it's that much easier to force someone to accept a shit job for shit wages.
You're acting like drugs are the source of the problem and punishing addicts fixes it.
That's fine if you don't know better, but I'm here telling you I do know better, you've been misinformed, and by accepting the boundaries of discourse set by rich assholes who want to keep capitalist bullshit going, you're supporting the rich assholes foisting poverty off on the rest of us like it's our fault.
Stop it.
Do you see how monstrous Spin sounds when he pulls his mask aside to reveal the honesty of "fuck you I got mine?"
Know how that sort of monster survives and thrives?
People accepting that it is normal for them to exist, good even, because capitalism=good, everything else=bad, so people spend less time asking why the fuck they participate in this fucked up ass socioeconomic system and more time participating in it to help make more money for an ever smaller group of people at the top.
Trump is the embodiment of this shit at work: his entire persona is a lie based on "CAPITALISM BEST, WHITE MEN BEST" which is pushed to keep as many poor white dudes as possible as angry as possible at everybody EXCEPT rich white dudes, and they keep falling for it.
The war on drugs, the war on terror, the horde of illegal immigrants, it's the same shit Reagan was doing with welfare queens and the soviets and the war on drugs.
Meanwhile as
moronsmoral majority voters were eating up the big steaming turds he dropped on their plates, he was deregulating the financial system and slashing tax rates for rich assholes while keeping poor white dudes angry enough at everyone but said rich white dudes that they'll be motivated to vote to fuck themselves over repeatedly.
Your life doesn't sound like one which would lead to you getting some benefit from enabling rich assholes fucking everybody over, so why do it?
Like, Spin at least seems to be in a position where the system is serving him just fine at the expense of everyone else, it's still shitty, but it's possible to understand why he might do that.
Not sure about everybody else willingly accepting the rules of a game rigged against them though, because the response isn't keep playing to be a good sport, it's tell whoever rigged it to fuck off and make new rules before burning the board and flushing the pieces.
