i’ll go first: our 17th prime minister one day vanished while swimming in the ocean and not only did none of his friends give a fuck, they started slapfighting immediately for who’s gonna be his successor. no joke they didn’t even let his body turn cold before the arguments began it was all so fucking funny.
Weed was also fearmongering chinese, but was done by timber barons originally, around the 1st world war, that fat bastard William Randolph hearst, Timber Baron and newspaper magnate that was trying to become president himself but failed because he sucks ran the campaign.
They ran marijuana out of business as well as hemp with a ruinous tax to start, and made opium illegal as well.
Later on Nixon super upped the penalties and enforcements of illegalization for the express purpose of criminalizing the population and creating a police state.
Which is ironic in a way because Nixon is more left than any Democratic president we have had in our lifetimes.
