"And second of all, when i tell you what to do, you do it. You have lived with the Uyghurs for 18 years, but i made them. These people love two things, Allah and me. I fought with them, i freed them and i brought them to heights they couldnt have imagined 50 years ago. I know half of my people's surnames, and i have been at war alongside everyone's grandfather or father. There is a reason "Ilham" is the second most common name."
"I was once like you. Trust me, i didnt like the monarchy either, and im not sure i like it too much nowadays. I have tried to modify it in order to avoid being a tyrant and i think i somewhat managed to. But truth is, these people need something to believe in. Someone to believe in."
"I'll die, you'll get the throne and you'll forward the position to your cousin. End of the discussion." She said, shooting her daughter a glare like she never had seen "Its the very least you owe this country"

Even if every single drug caused physical dependency - which they don't - my point is that there is nothing "inherently bad" about being physically dependent on something, or something causing dependency*. We are all dependent on a lot of different things - I am physically dependent on a certain drug which is prescribed to me, which has no recreational use, and which I must take regularly for the sake of my health. It has both positive and negative side effects. Is this "bad"? Would I be a more moral, good or correct human if I did not have to take this drug?
There is also nothing "inherently bad" about a substance having side effects - mental or physical. Food can make you lethargic or energized; lotion can make your skin soft; peppermint oil can enhance memory recall; pollen makes you sneeze; and anything can be deadly if you're severely allergic to it.
Why are effects like "makes everything really funny for 6 hours" or "makes colors look really cool" inherently bad?
Drugs having negative "social effects" is like, literally only because drugs are criminalized and stigmatized in society.
*"Dependency" as in drug addiction is more of a reaction to societal circumstances anyway, which you seem to recognize. Rats don't get addicted to cocaine when they have friends and nice houses, they just do it for fun sometimes at parties.

You know what? You're right.
The negative effects of drug use are caused mostly by overbearing drug policies and social stigma which forces drug users to live in even worse conditions that non-drug users have.
There are effects that are causal, but rather in the opposite direction, as in - having or being X could cause you to use drugs, not the other way around.
Good talk.
In a left - wing utopia (or whatever communist/socialist structure you want to imagine) the state should give free food, water, energy, education, health, therapies, medicine, every kind of possible service, AND recreational drugs? What is your opinion?
Well, if you're talking about an actual fully realized "left-wing utopia" then there would be no state to give away anything.
Drugs would probably be produced in communities or traded with other communities who have the capacity to produce them, just as food or other services, I presume.

Im just assuming Ill be dead before full utopian communism is achieved so i tend to focus on the current situation. But I can already grow my own supply so it wouldnt change my habits
Welcome to TCB! Glad to have you. I'm sure you will have a good time here. We play games and hold events on our Discord, have an active regional government, and generally have a pretty nice pan-leftist community here. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!

depends on what you mean by give. do i believe we should mail everyone a monthly supply of, say, heroin? no. i do believe in providing communities with drug centers, educational facilities where you can partake if you so choose in a safe environment, with staff on hand should things go awry. it's simply a matter of materialist thinking, we live in this world and drugs are a part of it. wishing that weren't the case is a waste. people are aware of, want, and seek out these substances. just accept that reality, and make life better for people. that's the goal, yeah?
people often use drugs as an escape from the conditions of their life, right? if one is truly against drug use, then improving society so people's lives are better is the ultimate cure.
