Imperialism and illicit drugs commonly go together. However, with Taliban opium eradication efforts in full effect, heroin is in short supply, and experts fear that a new fentanyl crisis could be brewing in the US.

    Who said I was arguing with you, dipshit?

    you replied to my comment. are you lost? lol

    and your childish tantrums and name-calling don’t impress me, nor does your bullying. all it tells me is that you’re so afraid of losing an argument to a stranger on the internet, it drives you into a blind rage.

    that’s how much control you give to strangers because you have no control over yourself.

          You said someone used a strawman argument when they said you didn’t pay attention to what they told you.

          Speaking of tantrums. Speaking of looking like a fool.

            congratulations on learning to read, but that doesn’t explain anything.

            Speaking of tantrums. Speaking of looking like a fool.

            yeah… that still doesn’t explain why you did those things….

              It does, the message simply went over your head because you don’t understand the concept of a strawman.

              You may be shocked to find that those cool drawings you’ve been posting have words on them. Maybe you should learn to read too!

                it’s sad that you have to keep telling yourself that, despite zero facts to support it.

                    Have some more pride in your trolling

                    “I know you are but wha am I?” isn’t a convincing argument. most people learn this when they’re 5.

            I figured speaking to as if you were a teenager might bear more success in your understanding.

            clearly I aimed to high.
