You mean the generations that made pot use common in college?
No one is calling cannabis a gateway drug aside from the Republicans. Who all do cocaine.
Whoa dude. Republicans do all the drugs known to man, they just judge everyone else especially minorities for it, in a delicious and idiotic hypocrisy.
Ronald Reagan and Nancy Reagan both regularly smoked marijuana.
I'm not denying that shit loads of Republicans do cocaine (and meth) but I guess what I'm saying is that they also do all those other drugs that they hate on left wing people and minorities for doing.
So many boomer Republicans are so doped up on legal opioids because they're rich connected and have good doctors, it's not even funny. All while freaking out about anything that becomes available on the street, accessible to people without insurance.
Part of me feels like they wanted heroin and oxycodone replaced with the far more lethal fentanyl for the purpose of punishing the "wicked junkies" but that's somewhat of a conspiracy theory.
I mean, there's a reason crack cocaine was so prolific and associated with negative outcomes in black communities... It's reasonable that a similar strategy might be used again in that same manner.
