PSA:
yes, people want to do drugs. we've done so since the dawn of humanity. yes, people will always do so habitually and laws can't change that, the only thing they'll do is worsen our living conditions, thus providing incentive to do more drugs.
yes, some people will get addicted and they need care and recognition as human beings (Portugal, perhaps the most leftist country in Europe in terms of government and electoral politics, is a good example for this).
no, nobody wants to be an addict. nobody wakes up on a Saturday morning thinking "you know what would be great? feeling this soul-crushing craving every day of my life".
and still there are addicts, and we go through this every day of our lives, and whatever bourgeois media wants you to think, WE ARE PEOPLE. WE ARE HUMAN BEINGS deserving of common decency and who have feelings & basics needs & we are more than our addiction.
most of us would prefer not being addicted but this culture would triumphantly walk over our poisoned bodies to make The Drug Problem a non-issue, or blame us for it.
