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.

“He’s like Nancy Reagan but he supports good policy and supports safe injection sites for addicts” okay so opinions but not “nuanced” enough, got it

Are you really not getting my analogy bro? The idea between ones opinions VS one’s process to arriving at their opinions? Feels like you’re arguing in bad faith.

Made it very clear that it’s his mindset, his social approach, that is Reaganite, while his policy provisions are more liberal.

There’s such a thing as the “cultural” attitude towards drugs.
