I take drugs like a fucking champion

We should ban alcohol then!
Alcohol is the most dangerous chemical consumed by the most people. Any person advocating societal level harm reduction through chemical prohibition and not including alcohol as the king of the problem chemicals is either a fool or arguing in bad faith.
Just because we have already legalized worse stuff doesn't justify legalizing more stuff.
It sounds like you're describing alcohol, definitely not shrooms.
False equivalency.
Caffine has caused more murders than MDMA.
Noone is calling for the ban of coffee because the asshats who want to control others all love coffee.
Look, just because you allow yourself to be a pawn controlled by whatever organization is controlling you doesn't mean you get to control other people.
Crimes should be prosecuted.
Vices are not crimes.
Use of vices are not an accurate measure to predict crime, and even if they were, you shouldn't prosecute on potential for a crime, you need to prosecute on actual crimes.
Your entire view reeks of you being miserable and wanting to force your misery on others.
You're right.
Prohibition and trying to restrict the freedom of others based on your own personal flawed dogma never ends well.
So maybe next time, keep your pie hole shut to begin with.
"Learn how to have a discussion" is a funny thing to say when you first replied with "ROFL"
ROFL
Maybe learn how to grow up, and don't have a hissy fit because other adults enjoy things you are afraid of.
