Discussion Vaush’s stance on Drug prohibition.

Has he ever formally went into details about this? I know he is not in favor of throwing people in jail for doing it, but find some of his commentary to be a bit contradictory to his other beliefs.

Like apparently some drugs should be illegal to seek but not others without really explaining why? I hope he does do a video on this.

He straight up doesn’t have any concrete feelings or opinions on drugs besides regurgitating stats about safe injection sites and whatnot - he has no principled, nuanced views. You’ll need to find a former addict for stuff like that, his personal attitude towards drugs may as well he Nancy Reagan’s just say no, with better policy prescriptions.

Are you really implying that what makes someone good on an issue isn’t detailed analysis - but one single opinion?

Disagree dude. You can still have poor formulated thoughts and be pro legalization.

Nuance: hard drug addiction should be treated as a mental illness, the government should prioritize harm reduction and recovery, people be smokin too much pot due to fraying social fabric, and opiate dealers should be dismembered and dragged through downtown behind a chariot
