This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Don't rally for drugs, rally for improving life conditions so that people wouldn't try to escape reality

Nobody rallies for drugs, people rally for decriminalisation of drug use and expenditure in rehab and prevention. And those people correlate very well with the people who rally for improving life conditions

It genuinely seems like people here seriously consider "just enjoying" them.

As per what you have said, where do I sign? I agree on both decriminalization of use and increased expenditures in rehab and prevention.

That's a very common use of drugs, and can be a lot safer than using them as a coping mechanism. Depending on the substance the risks can be acceptable, at least compared to other high risk activities like sky diving or driving a car.
