  1. The definition of "drug" includes literally everything you put into your body by any means. Now, what you're thinking is actually more toward synthetic products like Fentanyl, Tylenol, Robitussin, Xanax, Adderall, etc. which cause addiction, death, and much more. Things like psilocybin-containing mushrooms, cannabis, ayahuasca, dmt from peyote and certain frogs, and even LSD (which is extracted from naturally occurring ergot fungus) are substances which exist whether humanity is here or not. The first load of names I gave you were made by humans, while the second are a part of nature--that thing that many humans are trying to protect. Even from a religious standpoint, such things were made by the Creator, who said that they're good. So please do not call something a "drug" in the commonly used sense of the word when it's actually a plant.

  2. When the DARE program was teaching me about drugs, it was pretty much hour-long sessions of "Just say 'no,' and don't fucking question authority." Now I see that many substances break those chains that make us believe that we need others to tell us what to do and how to live. "Don't do drugs because life will be harder for us if you aren't doing what we want you to do for our own gain." That's really what they were saying.

  3. Fentanyl is a legal substance, isn't it? Maybe not how it's used in that documentary, but it's a legal, big-pharma product that makes money for fatasses in suits, right? I wonder why something that shows how terrible Fentanyl is was taken down.

  4. Juan Gomez It took just one question to make me curious: "Are we using everything that God created in the best ways possible?" That was when I was a deeply fundamentalist Christian though. And of course, the answer is "No."

  5. William Schutz You mean everyone that has pills in the US obtained them legally and were advised to use them to excess by doctor's orders?
