I’m pretty libertarian in regards to things like drugs and sex, and am an addict myself. How would you guys feel about a harm reduction drug use sub forum?

        Rachel was a user who did meth. She ended up permabanned after a long, drawn out process.

            She got doxxed and has a history of bad behavior. It didn't go well.

              I don’t think one weird person should ruin a potentially life saving aspect of the site for everyone else. Seems like a clusterfuck though and her telling people to ‘kill your self’ is repugnant and foul

              What does this have to do with her drug use? Poor opsec and being a jerk isn't a symptom of substance abuse problems.

                It has to do with stigma, which is a problem that this thread reveals is WIDESPREAD in left spaces that aren't clearly anti-authoritarian.

                Next they will come for the sex workers: the irresponsible fucks are spreading covid, I hear. Whatever tool is at hand to demonize and control the other.

                Just give it time. These people will come out of the woodwork in a place like this, especially since downvotes are disabled for better or for worse.

      idk, people are going to do whatever anyway, making a forum isn't going to force people to become addicts, and with enough sense i definitely don't think it would enable them either
