If even one of you gets a post removed during one of these bit struggle sessions you failed the bit and should feel immense shame. Doing a bit successfully is Praxis.

Find things to struggle about that doesn't get out of hand. It's important to let off some steam now and again but do it in a way that doesn't harm your fellow comrades or add work to the mod team.

I'll start: Some beans are better than other beans. Like kidney beans are bad nasty icky beans but black beans are actually amazing.

Destigmatize and legalize all drugs and then provide proper health care for people who use them and probably all drugs have some redeemable qualities.

Meth is really only a "bad" drug because of who primarily uses it and how it's made but both of those are pretty much intentional systemic issues rather than an issue with the drug itself

Methamphetamine is a really interesting test case because most people will be comfortable with opioids, despite the issues they cause due to addiction and abuse, because they also have therapeutic value but when you drop the idea that meth is in a similar boat - good therapeutic value despite serious issues with addiction and abuse - it tends to sit really uncomfortably with a lot of people.
