The “War on Drugs” was lost the day it was started. Since then, it’s just bullshit used to make the population feel as if drugs aren’t freely available to the general population that can afford them.

It’s also used to militarize the police. It’s also used by the government to fund covert, illegal operations. It’s used by the government to punish communities of minories by introducing cheap, addictive drugs to desperate people.

Payoffs? Yep. Of course. Non-stop.

Fake “real” busts? Yes. Of course. Just for the cameras, it’s called “Copaganda”.
