Because there’s this guy called Bonnie Prince Bob who called himself a socialist and openly and publicly advocates its use… despite the fact that “psychedelics” are drugs. Like cocaine is a drug.

    I personally don’t have anything against drugs themselves. Coffee is a drug. Tylenol is a drug. My season allergie medicine is a drug. Heroin is a drug. The drugs itself are not a problem. How they and their users are treated in society is problematic.

    From the poor neighborhoods they run rampant in to the criminal side of it to the use of governments to suppress movements to whatever it is they are used in a harmful way. I think being aware of that is necessary as a communist but that doesn’t mean you have to be strictly against drugs.

    It is good to have a party line on no drug use probably to keep discipline within the party.
