And yet…. Antivaxxers walk free.
And the Sacklers' walk free.
That depresses me.
I grew up in their test market. I watched every friend I had lose their parents to opioid addiction. I watched my dad go from busting his ass caring for us, camping trips, fishing trips, and hunting trips, to hanging out behind a car wash with other unemployed junkies while we cooked on a wood stove and had no electricity.
I grew up in it so it was normal. I ended up on it. You either had a social life or you didn’t. There weren’t very many sober people left by 2005.
I have seen death and chaos all of my life. My brother and I are among about 5 boys from our neighborhood left. We got sober because luckily our mother never touched the stuff and was able to be there for us. The rest in our age group are dead. Overdoses and suicides because of the addiction.
I knew nothing but violence and chaos as a kid because they lied and made junkies of entire communities.
Money is magical. As long as you pay your taxes you’ll be fine. Might have to deal with some embarrassment from time to time, you might get your name taken off of something. Other than that, luxury and protection.
The only reason Holmes is in jail is that she fucked with other people with money. She should have found a way to get rich poisoning the poors.
That's also the only reason rich people stay rich ... they own the justice system, Wall St and the banking system lock, stock and barrel.
I'm glad you made it through, and sad so many didn't.
Don’t forget the ivermectin pusher with the spray tan
