fent is a big issue. It kills those who seek it out intentionally, and those not seeking it out because it's now cheaper to cut everything by with fent instead of the real fucking thing.

but all this is going to do is affect the poor, those with habits to feed daily, kids selling dime bags on the corner, and anyone who gets caught with fent and isn't white.

and it'll probably allow him to continue killing Latin Americans in boats.

I'm too stupid to think much further than that.

This is why he's doing this, I think, despite the fact that the fent isn't coming from LatAm.

Didn't he say it was coming from China just a few months ago?

[-] LeninWeave@hexbear.net 12 points 1 day ago

That's always been the line, but recently I believe he claimed it was coming from Venezuela.

It's actually a complex global supply chain involving every official enemy and nobody else.

This will likely be used as the basis to go beyond just attacking random boats, grounds for escalation, acts of war

I thought the whole thing about fentanyl being super-lethal was made up by cops?

[-] microfiche@hexbear.net 1 points 1 day ago

I'm more talking about folks getting bags of something cut w fent, then being injected or snorted and dying. Or fake pills pressed w fent, that sorta stuff. The whole 'touch three grains of fent and drop dead instantly" is horseshit, tho.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.

If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.

Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.

Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.

Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.

Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.
