What’s funny is that this actually happened. 

I’m unfamiliar with this story please elaborate

Finnish soldier gets separated from the rest of his unit but he’s the only one carrying the emergency amphetamines for the unit, takes too many and goes on a one man rampage for like 2 weeks straight giving the opposing Soviet soldiers nightmares for decades. Oh and he did it all on skis. 

Did he survive?

Yes, during his methed up 2-3 week rampage he got injured by a land mine, travelled 400km on skis, and only ate pine buds and a Siberian Jay that he caught which he ate raw. When he made it back to Finnish lines he was taken to a hospital where it was found his heart rate was nearly 200 beats per minute and his weight had dropped to 43kg (94.7lbs).

Don’t fuck with the Finns.

I think leftblr is a little too quiet about sensible drug policy and that’s really telling 🤔

Access to clean needles should be free

Testing kits for fentyl and stricnine and other laces should be free

Narcan should be free (and is given out by a lot of opioid awareness groups thank god)

Access to methadone and suboxone should be free

And this is all like… really basic stuff. I personally want full repeal of the scheduling system and other measures regarding the prison system

Drug addiction is a direct result of suppression of certain populations and the pharmaceutical industry’s push for the normalization of opiate use.

Anti drug policy is almost entirely rooted in racism and it serves to build up our prison system, while simultaneously denying addicts access to safe withdrawal measures. The war on drugs never served to help the people as a whole, and always served to isolate people of color and divide the classes even further. There’s a reason mostly poor people and/or people of color face real time for drug charges.

A lot of you are inherently against drug addicts and supplying them with clean materials because you have no idea how addiction works. If you come off certain drugs like meth, heroin, or spice cold turkey, you could DIE. Needle exchanges provide safety, health screenings, and information on recovery while providing disease free, smooth needles to taper with.

And if we don’t destroy the system that enables addicts (capitalism) then we’re not going to solve the 97% relapse rate that addicts have.

You can’t claim to align with the left if you want addicts to die. It’s a blatant ignorance of why addicts become addicts and it’s an engrained hatred of neurodivergent people.

People who don’t think addicted people should be taken care of should have to go through withdrawal until they understand how horrific it is.

Addiction is a health concern. Have a look at Portugal’s approach and the reduction of addiction-related statistics.

Bill Cosby Found Guilty In Sexual Assault Retrial

Bill Cosby has been convicted of drugging and molesting a woman in a retrial.

The panel of seven men and five women had been deliberating about 14 hours at the Montgomery County Courthouse in Norristown, Pa.

The 80-year-old comedian was accused of drugging and violating a woman at his suburban Philadelphia home in 2004.

He was charged with three counts of aggravated indecent assault.

Cosby will face up to 30 years in prison. 

Cosby could get up to 10 years in prison on each of the counts.

It’s the only criminal case to arise from allegations from more than 60 women.
