Imperialism and illicit drugs commonly go together. However, with Taliban opium eradication efforts in full effect, heroin is in short supply, and experts fear that a new fentanyl crisis could be brewing in the US.

    🤡 “Why would you post world news in a world news community? Who cares?”

    when you have t twist my words into something other than what they meant just to score imaginary points, it’s not me who looks bad… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      I quoted you incredulously asking why someone would post and comment about this and then made a comical version of you incredulously asking why someone would post and comment about this. That’s not a straw man, unless you’re trying to tell me that you’re a scarecrow (because you certainly need a brain).

        you misrepresented what I said to make the argument easier to defeat.

        when your unimaginative rhetorical tricks fail, you hurl insults.

          You’re complaining about hurling insults? Here’s you in this thread:

          what’s your point? just to come here and whine about it?

          are logical fallacies all you guys know?

          “nuh-uh” isn’t a convincing argument. most people learn this when they’re 5.

          “I know you are but what am I?” is not a convincing argument. most people learn this when they’re 5.

          your inability/refusal to understand is not my problem

          I’m amazed you didn’t snap your own neck with those mental gymnastics

          Insufferable
