Only someone with a PhD could come up with a take this bad.<p>The article essentially boils down to a plea to let people grow hard drugs instead of the food they need to eat. &quot;Money&quot; is better than actual usable things they can grow.

Is this a new parody site? Because I am still scratching my head.

While I am not a fan of the War on Drugs, butting into a country&#x27;s internal affairs screams colonialism.

incredible. What is bad for Afghan&#x27;s is US seizure of Afghan central bank deposits and full spectrum sanctions regime designed to cripple whatever is left of the economy and further immiserate one of the poorest people on earth.

Quite a few poppy farmers in Mexico are also out of a job because of fentanyl, you can just make it in a lab and you don&#x27;t have to grow anything.

What exactly is the motive for this type of disinformation?<p>An effort to foment resistance to the Taliban? Warmongering? A needle to complain about the withdrawal? I can&#x27;t understand the motivation.<p>What sort of audience is so credulous and naive that they would believe opiate cultivation is the only path to human well being?
