Where Is All This Fentanyl Coming From? - EARLY ACCESS, AD-FREE, AND UNCENSORED
Added 2024-06-18 17:19:52 +0000 UTCHi. In today's episode, we look at why fentanyl is so dangerous, why it's being imported into the U.S. at higher rates than ever, and why American greed is partially to blame for the current overdose crisis.

I have chronic pain. Going on 20 years now. I reckon I got lucky being allergic to codeine. I work for King County Washington. Even in the "most" liberal city, working directly for the government, everything is set up for well and able-bodied people. I have until Aug 20 to get better or lose my job. Since there's not much hope for that I am terrified for my immediate future. Not just the $2200 a month rent but losing my insurance when I need brain surgery.

2024-06-19 23:27:18 +0000 UTCDamn, I wish this was a more nuanced look at this issue. Not that it's bad or anything but I really rely on you guys to teach topics to people that don't want me talking at them for 3 hours straight, and while all of this is technical accurate, it really plays up the elements of "drugs are terrifying" and "no street drug is safe" that gets sensationalized in every other news report :( Slightly tangentially, I thing it's crazy that anyone has ever taken fentanyl expecting something else and "not realized it" - it's a terrible drug with little to no euphoria - maybe, MAYBE if you're desperate for dope it might trick you once but lol people cutting coke with it? As silly as the cops fainting looking at the bags The one part that is very sadly spot on in how this is a uniquely American problem, and the video does answer the question the title posits, but I think this is the least I've enjoyed a video you've made - fent is absolutely more dangerous than any drug ever made, no question about it, but it's not hiding on every corner waiting to ruin your fun coke night with pals, and highlighting the few times this has happened seems... idk, the reality of this drug is scary enough, no need to give it even more power right?
