Oh wow, I hadn't caught that. I thought you were mistaken but went back and looked at it again, I think you are correct. That's even more evil.

- yupper32 4y ago"Evil" is far from the correct word here.
- webinvest 4y agoI wouldn’t call it evil either. As a general rule, don’t do drugs in foreign countries when it’s illegal. If you must, do them in your home country or where they’re made legal.
- whoooooo123 4y agoFun fact: in some countries it's illegal for citizens to take illegal drugs even if they're abroad in a place where it's legal. E.g. if a Korean smokes weed during a visit to Amsterdam, they can be prosecuted for it upon return to Korea. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_policy_of_South_Korea#Koreans_abroad_using_drugs_in_a_country_where_it_is_legal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_policy_of_South_Korea#Kor...
- stolsvik 4y agoIsn't that pretty common? As a Norwegian, there's AFAIK several things I can't do when abroad even if it is legal in the country I visit. Doing drugs is one of those things, I believe.
- hackerlight 4y agoIt's evil. But it's an evil that exists because of optics made necessary by the current political climate. So the blame for that needs to go to the people that make such optics necessary, if you catch my drift.
- jrochkind1 4y agoUh huh. "Now look what you made me do", the eternal cry of the oppressive government or abusive family member.
- hackerlight 4y agoA small improvement is better than no improvement, which is what we would've gotten if Biden didn't win. Those are the facts.
