The program was about education. But it was also about surveillance.

You put coke as an example of a drug that "even doing safety once will absolutely ruin your life." That is word-for-word DARE propaganda.

The research cited above suggests putting even heroin or crack in that category is a stretch. I'm going to put a lot more weight on that than on anyone's anecdotes.

Imagine going to bat for heroin and crack cocaine.

Also what anecdotes? You accused me of not knowing what I was saying, to which I said I did and you quickly moved your goalposts.

I have put people in bodybags. Guess what a lot of them were on? Heroin. Crack. Meth. Unlaced stuff too. The laced stuff is a one way death sentence anyway.

I have seen people utterly rot away with heroin, and become a different person in less then 3 months. Then those people either go through utter hell for months during recovery, or they die. Do you you think weed makes people stab their friends and loved ones so they can get more? No. But heroin or crack will do that.

maybe just have a society that is just not so terrible that they'd do a shit ton of drugs and OD rather than have to face living in a shit society.

People do drugs as a way to cope with terrible living conditions. If life is worth living I don't think people will need to take so many drugs.
