drug users tend to be kind of opinionated, and the internet only makes it worse
there are plenty of reasons for this! here's a few
stupid people doing stupid things with drugs ruins it for everyone else to varying degrees: from the face-eating dude in florida permanently ruining the term "bath salts" (which he wasn't even on????) to kids somehow getting a gram of some obscure hallucinogen with a low effective dose blowing it like coke and dying, the media loves scary drug stories, these lead to public outrage and potentially new legislation.
some of the things people do with drugs are genuinely stupid: nutmeg-as-a-drug always was, is, and always will be, stupid as hell, for example. it's at best a waste of your time, at worst actually hazardous. teenagers are a notoriously stupid and reckless bunch, sometimes a forceful "don't fucking do that" (followed by good reasoning, hopefully) is the only way to get a bunch of 16 year-olds not to pop a bunch of klonopin and kill and handle of caldwell's, y'know?
i think i had more reasons but i kinda lost them when typing up a bunch of elaborate analogies that i ultimately opted not to post. oh well.
also: coke sucks, and I really hope my acid connect comes through
