    Perhaps it doesn’t matter, because you didn’t ask in good faith, and are just a thrashy pseudointellectual kid who’s pretending to argue a thing they know nothing about, while thinking writing “fallacy” means something, while pretending their implications don’t exist.

      “I won’t be replying anymore” was in your last comment, was it not?

      See this is why I left my comment in the first place; people like you get so irrationally emotional over this that there’s no talking about it.

      Is it that you’ve been lied to, or is it that you actually happened to believe something so ridiculous?

      The propaganda is so strong, that you’re defending the prohibition and drug propaganda, because you don’t want to admit having been influenced by it.

      Got a bit angry about that “fallacy fallacy” thing as well, I think. You thought you had some sort of gotcha or something, but you’re really bad at debating man. You’re arguing nothing, and all you’re doing is poorly imitating what you’ve seen other people say in some debates, without even understanding the things you talk about.

      We have to get rid of the prohibition, but because of people like you, it’s very hard.

        I am high as Giraffe pussy right now.

        Your argument is invalid.

          That’s a bit like saying “I can’t be racist, I’m black”. I know there are people who believe it, but it doesn’t make it true, does it?

          I answered your points, but all you keep doing is larping an intellectual. Why did you ask for 10 books on the subject? Because you wanted to know if the situation is as I say it is. I link a book saying it definitely is. You have a tantrum.

          So you definitely agree that the prohibition of all drugs has to be lifted, for the good of society?

            That’s a bit like saying “I can’t be racist, I’m black”. I know there are people who believe it, but it doesn’t make it true, does it?

            Actually it is a bit like saying you threw a tantrum over questions you couldn’t answer and assumed I was pro drug prohibition because of it.

            You know what they say about assuming right?

            I answered your points, but all you keep doing is larping an intellectual. Why did you ask for 10 books on the subject? Because you wanted to know if the situation is as I say it is. I link a book saying it definitely is. You have a tantrum.

            You haven’t answered my questions, as I wasn’t making points.

            That is another failure of perception based on your defensive demeanor, caused by the aforementioned tantrum and assumptions. The amount of projection and mental gymnastics you are doing to make me out to be you is humorous.

            So you definitely agree that the prohibition of all drugs has to be lifted, for the good of society?

            No, I don’t agree that the prohibition of all drugs has to be lifted for the good of society. Just like I do not agree that prohibition of all drugs must be in place for the good of society. Both statements are equally asinine.

            What I do believe is drugs should be available for use by consenting adults in a heavily regulated market coupled with intense social safety nets to deal with drug use related problems.

            Edit this thread is a case in point. Not one single explanation, just people absolutely terrified out of their minds, parroting bad propaganda and even worse rhetoric. “I don’t want my surgeon tripping when he’s operating on me.” And I don’t want my surgeon drunk, and alcohol is legal, and I’ve never had the issue, because surgeons don’t come to work drunk.

            Genuinely, I’m tired of answering these “arguments” and no-one will accept how afraid they are, even when not a single soul can explain why.

            This edit is hilarious as well. Made especially funny by the fact that no one is arguing for drug prohibition.

            You got an answer to your question "Why is society so afraid of people purposefully altering their mental state? (In terms of cannabis, psychedelics, anything “mind-expanding.)”, and me asking you questions.

            Not once was a pro prohibition argument made against you, yet you keep hammering that nail like everyone is against you.

            You should address the victim mentality, need to attack and demean others to make points, and inability to listen to another persons point if you want to have more success communicating with others.

              Except I did answer your questions. Address the first book I’ve given, and then we’ll talk about nine others, mkay? Or was there perhaps zero reason for you to ask them, because you were asking in bad faith and had no response to when me offering actual literature as an answer, and now you’re just pissy about it?

              No, I don’t agree that the prohibition of all drugs has to be lifted for the good of society

              Then you’re either ignorant of the subject, or directly benefitting from the prohibition. There’s simply no other alternative. The prohibition of drugs is harmful to society.

              What I do believe is drugs should be available for use by consenting adults in a heavily regulated market coupled with intense social safety nets to deal with drug use related problems.

              That is them being legal. I never said “unrestricted access to any drug”, did I? (But you won’t have the same asinine literal criteria for your own arguments as you’re trying to do with mine, showing yet another measure of pretentiousness.)

              This edit is hilarious as well. Made especially funny by the fact that no one is arguing for drug prohibition.

              You’re arguing against the facts of the matter, and now pretending like you don’t know that you’ve only now stated your opinion on the matter, and clearly argued against me, who made his stance very clear. You’re just so pretentious it twists my stomach.
