CDC, 2024:
47,735 Americans dead from synthetic opioids, mostly fentanyl, in one year.
Forty seven thousand seven hundred and thirty-five.
That is one Pearl Harbor every three weeks. For the whole year.
Japan's total drug overdose deaths in a year are in the low hundreds.
What ratio is supposed to be acceptable?
And what does it say about who is allowed to keep ignoring the southern border?
Mexican fans booed the US flag during the World Cup opening ceremonies, yet they are dying to come here illegally and fight like hell to not be shipped back home.
There is no magic soil. A nation is simply its people. America was built by White Europeans, so it’s not surprising that White Europeans feel at home in the US. We’re the same people.
It’s like night and day compared with all the third world scum.
@PixelCNinja lol I can't think of anything more rare than a steampunk rpg with themes of industrial pollution, class division, and social decay a year after Final Fantasy VII came out. Wait a minute
@ant19_fcb@luvmyjaide Legalizing abortion resulted in millions of more deaths (through, you know, killing unborn children) than would have otherwise happened
