The problem is:
The narrative that ANY use of a drug is misuse.
Drug use is complex and the majority of people who use drugs do not have a problem - Either moral or medical.
Reformation through punishment or treatment is not required. Just stop criminalising people. That's all
We're live from 2pm this arvo for International Drug User's Day.

The police love a bit of seizure porn (as in, look at all the drugs we seized!!) to continue the illusion that spending so much money on policing isn't a total waste and the wrong way to address drug issues
Seizure porn getting obvious:

Sensible voice
NEW ZEALANDERS everywhere! Make sure to VOTE in this critical election. Have YOUR say. And while you’re at it, let’s get sensible and finally LEGALISE cannabis .Decriminalise it, regulate it, tax it- the whole community benefits( not gangs) #makeitlegal #VoteYesOnCannabis #CBD
Unpopular opinion?
Addiction is not the problem. Addiction is not harmful in and of itself.
12-step programs are one method people use to beat substance addiction by sublimating substance addiction for whats ostensibly seems to be a mystical/religious-type addiction

Gonna go use some breakfast. Then use an apple. Going to use a glass of water. Then cultivate some plants that I'm then going to use.
Is "use" really the best word?
We need someone who can take over posting on Facebook. At least once a week to promote the show/podcast, but more posting is welcome!

Listen back to @PDancefloors interview at 3cr.org.au @3CR #danceculture #drugpolicy #Covid19UK #COVID19
There is an emergent theme of certain groups of people never accepting responsibility, never being accountable. Mainstream media in Vic,Boris Johnson's govt in UK
Thanks @AntKillick too!
Live at 2pm, listen back at 3cr.org.au/enpsychedelia
Podcast soon.
Maybe video. Video and audio sync issues driving me crazy on one project... Never use Zoom's video record function. It shit.
Cheers Nick for having us on the podcast. It was great to connect! Anthony is @AntKillick

Hey @AODMediaWatch @HRV_Aust, this looks like one that needs some AOD MW analysis.
A drug support worker at Richmond's safe injecting room has been jailed for selling heroin to addicts.
But Matthew Honey was released back into the community, because he didn't agree with the sentence. @Eliza_Rugg9 #9News
Honey Trap
Live right now on @3CR talking #pilltesting and #vaping with @DrugsWrap @JRevellious @stephenjbright @AODMediaWatch @AshBinAus 855am or 3cr.org.au
You can buy ciggies from multiple places within your #viclockdown 5km bubble, but many people won't even have access to one retailer for #vape #nicotine
How this ISN'T a commercial advantage to the tobacco industry is beyond me
The anti-vape crowd inadvertantly prop up tobacco

Curious about this statement from @_vifm toxicologist: "novel psychoactive substances were "very potent" and difficult to detect."
NPS is an incredibly non-homogenous category. Blanket statements only serve to misinform, rather than clarify.

The best harm reduction strategy for those using a synthetic has ALWAYS been, "Use cannabis instead"
But many don't, because it is only accessible via black market.
This needs to change.
GOOD LUCK NEW ZEALAND!
Hi Kiwi friends. Not good news that synthetic cannabis found in New Zealand. If you don’t like idea of synthetic cannabis & prefer live to dead Kiwis then I hope you’ll be voting to regulate cannabis in the referendum next month.

Prescriptions for a product which directly competes with tobacco (which you can buy from stores across Aus) and is less harmful than tobacco is ridiculous.
This is a harm maximisation strategy.
Why do they do it? @quitvic @CancerVic
