Check with your local political leaders, since Oz wants them to make every other decision for you.

If something is the leading cause of death, we should be trying to fix it by looking at the real causes of it. No one is putting fentanyl in candy or randomly sending it in the mail. That kind of rhetoric from Oz and co. only serves to muddy the discourse around a very real problem.

As an aside, plenty of people find humor in tragedy and joking about it can be cathartic. There are plenty of ways to joke around without undercutting the larger issue.

I got mine last week, but had to go to the post office and sign for it. Might steal some out of the kids Halloween candy too.

That's a weird way to spell Accidents (unintentional injuries), which are the actual #1 cause of death for the 18-45 group. The statistic you're citing makes incorrect assumptions about the cause of those deaths, and there isn't data to back it.

Sounds like feelings are hurt because fetterman is a lame duck. How how the lefties have devolved.

I got mine with my weekly adrenochrome shipment from George Soros, did you check in that box? It was under the many “free third-term abortion” coupons

Damn bro that’s fucked up. Also this is no joking matter guys.

Not getting your fentanyl in the mail is the leading cause of sobriety ages in 14-27

Back in the 80s I was a small child living in Beechview, and they used to have insane block parties. I was only 4 years old, and I remember people doing keg stands and climbing up the telephone poles and shit.

I vaguely remember a pie fight. And some boobs.

It's wild that people don't realize that there's a fentanyl crisis. Yinz need to go check aut Philly.

Fuck you on about? Op made a joke about fentanyl and I said it isn’t a joking matter, stated a fact that deaths have gone up 22%. Never said who I am voting for, just saying it’s not a joking matter. Do you think before you speak?

They’re catching a fraction. And the number they’re catching is way up because the amount trying to get in is way up. You’re just being obtuse. Or you’re genuinely not very bright to understand what the numbers truly mean. You probably think inflation is good and that Biden is the best President ever. Stick with the video games and pizza rolls that your Mom makes - let the adults work it out for you.

Maybe you are lost here, but the people who are disingenuously talking about fentanyl are the Republicans trying to use those deaths as a weapon against Democrats.

So a joke about that shitty behavior is nothing compared to the evil that pretends to care while doing nothing: Republicans.

Or are you just mad at the reddit post not the pure evil it was a commenting on?

Then why arent fentanyl deaths dramatically up? I mean when your boy donny was in his penultimate year 70k people died. 90k in 2020. Was it because he was soft on china? Or couldnt control the borders properly? I actually take issue with Biden on a ton of issues and can openly say that because I’m not a cult member.

Oooh ok, so there’s absolutely no possibility that I think fentanyl isn’t a joking matter in general, no matter who is saying it. And so if I’m just putting my opinion out there that (in this case a democrat) shouldn’t joke about it, That I automatically support republicans using it to there advantage.

Got ya! If I ever have an opinion ill defer to you because you obviously know me better than I know myself. And since you have a hard time coming to basic logical conclusions, to help you out, that last bit was sarcastic and basically a funny way to tell you your an idiot. (This is the part where you stfu)

Here’s the thing. Its multifaceted, and is as much as it was in the time period I gave you. I dont blame Trump for an increase in opioid deaths during his tenure. I also dont blame Biden. I blame a global depression/recession, a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic with lockdowns occurring during both presidencies, increased foreign manufacturing of opioid and opioid precursors in China, India, Mexico, the war on drugs, the lack of harm prevention services in rural communities, lack of affordable rehabilitation. Im sure I could go on and on.
