Weed and Meth are still the biggest drugs.

The CCP is conducting chemical warfare on Americans.

The goal is to kill as many of us at they can.

A lot of people parrot similar but it makes zero sense. Whether you consider them a parasitic or symbiotic organism killing their host or symbiote is wholly illogical.

And yet they released a bio-weapon in late 2019.

I believe there are tests available but doubt your regular drug user is going to bother with testing.

Field reagent tests only indicate fentanyl contamination, but 0 indication of how much. Obviously I'd toss it all, but that's unfortunately not everyone.

Will they employ enough people from Central America to stop illegal immigration to the US?

This is what I don’t understand about this type of drug use. Do users want to be numb? Why? I’ve never heard any of them give an explanation for why they do it.

Do they think life sucks so bad that they want to turn it off for a while? It seems like a form of temporary suicide. For all intents and purposes they die and then come back, usually.

No, No, and No. All of the forgoing is wrong. You are witnessing the growing pains of fentanyl distribution. This stage is an early stage. Once they figure out the doses everything will follow its normal course. Dope heads will do fine until they die, dealers will make bank and we will all have to find something else on which to opine.

My recreational use was limited to weed, psychedelics, and blow in my younger days.

From friends, acquaintances, and strangers I've talked to over the more recent years what you describe is exactly why people get involved with heroin and similar drugs. They seek that numbness.

Over the last year I've seen a few YouTube videos interviewing people on the street in places like Skid Row and they prefer fentanyl now. I've had a few conversations with addicts in my small town and they prefer it as well.

All about them blues.

This article gives a decent overview of why fentanyl is replacing heroin as the drug of choice for many. Easier to smoke it than shoot up heroin. Quicker more intense, albeit shorter lived high. Decrease in supply of prescription opioids. Easier for cartels to produce and traffic a synthetic than an organic drug. More profitable for dealers to press counterfeit pills than acquire legit pills. Etc.

Whenever I was in excruciating pain from my Rheumatoid Arthritis/Ankylosing Spondylitis, my rheumatologist prescribed me about 20-40mg of methadone a day to get by. Everybody is different, for me, it numbed my pain away and I was able to be 25% functional but gave me bad side effects. I stopped cold turkey whenever I had suicidal thoughts and was very close to killing myself. Now, I stick with medical marijuana to help relieve the pain. I do feel sad for people that are addicted to opiods, however, I feel no sympathy for somebody that OD'd on fentanyl because it's up to the drug user to put it in their bodies.

Very high potency, means needing to smuggle smaller volumes. Or larger profit margin on the the same volume of smuggled goods.

As always, just follow the money.

They’ll mix it with some h and it lets them cut it and end up with product that’s still strong that people want. But yeah people keep dying from it, way moreso than just h.

At first yes, but then it’s so they aren’t sick. They become physically dependent on it and get dope sick every so often and got to get another shot.
