Maybe some groups in the US want to destroy anyone we have ever looked up to. Tear down the Teddy Roosevelt statue and put up a new one of that crack-smoking mayor of DC or Baltimore. Same-same. You know, Hunter Biden's smoking buddy. I never had a chance to try crack, yet.

I've tried crack a few times back in my drug days nearly 2 decades ago, it just gives me a headache and it's not fun. I guess it's more fun for other people and I'm just weird? I don't like coke either though.

    Then a society which shuns justified violence, entrepreneurship, rocket jockeying, and all other forms of rewarding individual risk-taking (I'm ignoring dare devils for the sake of argument) eliminates all possible associated rewards and makes society poorer. Not to mention the psychological stunting it causes in those who would have been rewarded, which drives them to those alternate highs as druggies and wire-heads.

    No wonder masculinity is toxic to them. It is life itself.

    Interesting! That's not the only drug I don't respond to normally, shrooms have no effect on me either. I don't have what it takes to turn the prodrug psilocybin to psilocin apparently.

    I will stick to tried and true substances and the main one is now legal in thirty-eight US states. Our second favorite is the one that makes back pain go away. Maybe you don't like that feeling of wanting to do ten different things at once.

        This is why they tell you not to assume things. I switched to alcohol from my drug of choice. That's pretty common.

        You don't understand my people at all.

          Most alcoholics can read though.
