- philwelch 5y agoI don’t know for certain. But if I were to speculate… Which country produces the largest share of fentanyl and the chemical precursors for fentanyl? Which country is one of the primary adversaries and rivals of the United States? Which country has first hand historical knowledge of how the illegal trafficking of narcotics can be used as a weapon to undermine and weaken a country?
- vmception 5y agoThey need to ship it to the UK then, straight from Hong Kong for maximum irony and retribution
- aaaaaaaaata 5y agoThey do, the UK is absolutely rampant with Asian pills and powders.
- reducesuffering 5y agoWhat he's referring to is that China is the biggest supplier of fentanyl and equipment to Mexican cartels that traffic it across the US' southern border. That's where most fentanyl comes from. How a country with such strict drug laws (execution) is the world's number one producer of the deadliest drug... doesn't make sense on face value.
- searchableguy 5y agoMany fentanyl variants are 1000x more effective than regular opiods while at the same time, similar level of cheaper. To reduce cost, every product is cut with fentanly. The problem is it's very easy to put more than you actually need. We are talking about mistake of mg or less costing lives here.
- nullc 5y agoThat makes sense why opiods and similar drugs would be cut with it, but not why wildly different drugs would be cut with it, no?
