It is about fucking time the world takes China's clandestine opium war seriously. The fact they have gotten away with this for so long is mind blowing. This has been a highly destructive and extremely successful campaign to destabilize western society.
I'm no china apologist, but I honestly hope they destabilize Western society with opiates before we start having internal religious/ultranationalist revolts. It would be a poetic way to have history play out.
I mean, I'm firmly in the camp of trying to avoid christian nationalist / neo-fascist takeover of western society as well mate. Call me pragmatic, but I'm not a romantic when it comes to society potentially devolving into global authoritarianism.
Bruh we know China allows it to be gray area.
They'll just spin up new companies and change ports.
But let's just pretend crackdowns will fix it when the cartels are literally synthesizing their own now with precursors in their own pro clandestine super labs.
Why not just setup a federal emergency and supplement recovery/therapy/substitution/housing/safe sites/job training+guidance and actually address the root of the problem? It's the inside of people where the real addiction to escaping their trauma lies.
