Leftism

Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

That's not hyperbole, it literally instantly induces addiction, that complex mental chemistry is capable of going off instantly and heroin is one of the known agents capable of doing so.
Stop trying to make heroin an ok thing, it ruins lives even in the safest circumstances and even the "safe" stuff leaves everyone it comes into contact with as a shell of their former selves.
You're trying to make space for drinking battery acid as a pain killer. That's the kind of destruction of your life and body that you're attempting to say is fine and good and ok.
Not to mention how opioids as an accepted painkiller in of itself is at this point entirely a product of capitalist meddling in medical science on the behalf of pharmacorps. It is widely known that the opioid epidemic has its roots in ad lobbying doctors into prescribing opioids regardless of if they were ever deemed necessary or safe for the circumstances.
Can you provide evidence that heroin instantly turns everyone into an addict the first time they are exposed to it, in the form of peer reviewed scientific literature?
Reread my comment or go have that argument with someone that is making it, because I’m not going to.
