I'm pretty sure US is at least one of the best place to get drugs, being illegal doesn't really matter from what I've heard. You can order everything off dark net if you know how to do it, is what I heard from several friends and many forums/imageboards.
It is much worse in east asia. In Japan these laws are strictly enforced, even getting things like cannabis is impossible even if you're willing to violate the laws.
Even If I do get them, The passionate Japanese DEA will caught me and put me into jail for several years and doesn't provide me any supports after getting out of jails, I will never get a job because of criminal records.
That is on top of Strong stigmatization, I cannot even talk about it. People would get scared when I mention that I use DXM in cough medicine for self-medication.
They hate people who does drug at all for being weak willed and evil enough to decide themselves to rely on drugs. While being absolutely ignorant about everything.
Pro-lifer stuffs also doesn't make sense to me, I think it's some part of "Us vs Them" two sided sort of things I see when people talks about US politics.
