      doing the "as a recovering addict" bit in that safe injection site article is really repulsive lmao like you were an alcoholic bro. unless we're living under prohibition and you were forced to drink bathtub liquor with toxic chemicals it's not the same thing in the slightest. like the science is not ambiguous on this, if you're against safe injection programs, you are for killing people with addictions.
