Fuck off. Duterte was right

Anime doesn't show drugs for the same reason it doesn't show fat chicks shaking their ass and smelling like shit. Anime was not made by Americans for Americans.

From when the bongs poisoned china with opium. They've been paranoid ever since.

>>160437124
But had you ever seen somebody addicted to opioids in anime? I hadn't but I had irl. And it's strange for me, because I spend 30x more time watching anime than going outside

Japan freaked the fuck out during the Opium wars and banned even the most benign drugs from being allowed in the country. They didn't want the Brits taking over with hard drugs.

>Price of Heroin (USD)

I'm pretty sure there are laws against showing real drug use in anime.

Drug users mad as fuck

>>160437194
They smoke marijuana in one of the new Lupin movies, but that's pretty much as far as drug use goes in anime. As far as I know, drug use is considered very shameful in Japanese society and those who regularly use them are typically depicted as low-life criminal types. Most series don't bother trying to portray bad people very deeply, so drugs aren't really a thing.
If we're going to bring up America, drug use is more widely shown not because it's widely accepted, but because people expect realism from their film and television.

>>160437326
They (flips) get killed by Duterte. That is all that matters to the entire world.

Because the viewerbase doesn't partake in hookup culture and their obsession with purity is an excuse they made for themselves, thus they don't want to see it either. Remember anime is entirely geared towards the buyfags will.

At least they could make some anime about that time. For example an adaption of 69 by Ryu Murakami.

So since this thread is flooded by shitposters already, I'm just going to say it:

Because anime isn't meant for dumb Americans. And when I say Americans I am indeed including everyone living on your two continents.

The Cancucks lead you by stupidity by far. They've elected a moron of unseen proportions to lead their country and even Trump's presidency will seem like a competent one after Trudeau is finished with them and sinks their country with a trillion dollar deficits.

Why? Because weed man.

I felt the need to admit it and want to know if anyone else feels that way.

>>160437664
The post was about slut culture though

Different cultures have different norms. Japan is a relatively drug light culture. Besides, I'm not sure if drugs would fit well with anime.

>>160437746
Druggies are always pretty insecure and unhappy after their high is over.

Which is why the Dutch have the highest prescription of painkillers per capita over other shithole countries.

Maybe instead of admitting you do drugs, you should admit you have a problem.

>Eternal Anglo cucking China with Opium and instilling the fear of drugs in everyone east of India
Compounded with the fact that anime (and manga) is pretty apprehensive to even show legal drugs (like alcohol and cigarettes) shown illegitimately.
I mean, how often is even underage drinking shown? Maybe Japan isn't like e.g. England where 16 yo are out binge drinking from Friday dusk till Sunday dawn, but its not like a 19 yo college student wouldn't drink a beer with friends in the comfort of his own room.

Wish I didn't do drugs and had more strict parents, Japan would have been great for me, this is coming from a high school dropout.

Try and take a look at the laws of your own country.
Even UK do death penalty until decades ago for opium distribution.
They only change it simply to harsh incarceration due to votes pandering.
Not all jails are like in the Norway where they look like resorts.
Even in the US, going to jail for a few years scarred you and destroy your career for life.

>>160437891
Because drugs carry a very harsh punishment there and stimulants often decrease the quality of your work

>>160437874
Then don't watch shit. There is enough anime out there that you quite literally cannot finish it all. Even if only a few can be considered masterpieces, a lot of them can be just good to great. You don't need the very best to enjoy something. The problem is you being too stupid to realize that you actually DON'T need to watch shit. But if you were capable of thinking that much, you wouldn't be doing drugs in the first place, so I'm not expecting you to understand any of this.

Yes but weed only amplifies the issue that existed beforehand, it doesn't just create this particular one.

Alcohol is one of the hardest.

^This. I speak from experience, you can cut off an arm and a leg to try to help someone but if they really have a death wish they WILL do everything in their power to fulfill it. The most you can hope for is that they stay in the hood. I am in the process of losing someone very close to me to crack, I smoke weed for 12 years, tried all kinds of things but I've never been "addicted" to anything but booze and I can get that across the street anytime. People who get hooked allow themselves to because they want attention/it's a hereditary or learned addiction/they just don't give half a shit about their lives and are stupid.

It's true, you used to be able to buy dope as cough medicine, kids could walk in and buy cigarettes for their "parents" yet surprisingly few of them had an addiction problem. There WERE opiate addicts but they just kept to themselves and people left them alone to get fucked up and die because that's what they wanted to do, and since they didn't have to bust their balls getting the money or avoiding the police, it was over relatively quickly. If you try to save someone who is self destructive, you both get hurt, the prison system in america speaks for itself as far as that's concerned.

>>160438807
Education is one way to get people to eat healthier, but all the other problems would probably be a little easier if the general population was healthier. It's insane that it's gotten to the point that 1 out of 3 adults are obese

Lol not doing drugs is like not having sex.

>>160438956

Yeah the whole "war" was a farce. Huge sums of money spent and literally no one benefited from it.

>>160438709
And it also led to people not doing drugs, in Japan. They handled it far better. It wasn't the idea of banning the drugs that was flawed, it was the method the westerns used and the Mexicans that were the problem.

Different types do different things. Weed you buy on the street isn't grown hydroponically and is from Mexico so it just makes you kinda hungry and sleepy, but if you were to buy a strain specific to your needs (Golden goat is my shit) then it might be the kind that doesn't affect your energy levels and makes you more perceptive/creative/less hungry, etc. The strains tailored for PTSD and insomnia will knock you the fuck out.

The point is that the country is run by criminals, yet the criminalization of drugs in the very same country is doing nothing but causing problems, and all /pol/ larpers know how to do is parrot the DARE officer they saw last week in middle school.

I'd rather die than become religious.

>>160439483
As I recall, DARE wasn't saying to start killing people in the street. It is both a hereditary problem as well of one of character. Both can be solved by removal.

Drugs should be legalized, if they're truly that bad junkies will be removed from society eventually.

>>160439557

It's a socioeconomic issue. In other countries those very same drugs are decriminalized but there is little to no abuse, because people don't need to sell them to make money or do them to cope with their shitty unfulfilling existence. The countries that aren't being run by neocon retards who don't give a shit about anything except who's greasing their pockets, your chris christie types.

Before an anime on drugs, maybe they should do something closer to home like alcoholism. It could cover a wide range of topics such as addiction and moral degeneration.

Shibatora has a few arcs centred around drugs.

Governments have a moral obligation to fight drugs. Legalizing drugs would only introduce more people to drugs than there is already. Families and respectable businessmen would start using stuff that would break down the fabric of society.

Seriously converting and joining a church community is more of the normalfag way to actually change your life and habits so I totally understand why that would turn you off. It's really good for a social person to change the people around them, because if your roommate is a heroin addict then guess whats gonna happen after rehab.

What really matters about the conversion or developing a belief is grasping a feeling of something like a father figure above yourself. (Not mother, because above yourself and female is a different role, mother nature) An ideal father is supposed to teach you and chide you, to make sure you develop the ambition to better and develop yourself to get what you want. Effectively, culture and society are supposed to do that but figuratively, it can be a man-like god or another figure to better imagine and connect to that figure.

You should check out Jordan Peterson's lectures on Maps of Meaning, he does a much better job of explaining this than me. He also goes and analyzes and applies this whole concept on media, specifically on the Disney film Pinocchio. It gives you a fresh perspective on any kind of media.

The point of the map is to realize that he is just another Great Father figure. It's not about developing a belief for God, but anything that takes in a Great Father figure role kinda like >>160440102 says. But there is way more to it and all the roles have meaning and purpose in your life.

Really, because I feel pretty fucking lonely and I never would have thought that simply imitating somebody would fix it.

Fucking druggies man, if you want to slowly kill yourself feel free to do it, but don't try to advertise and push that shit on others.

People should be allowed to do whatever they want to their own bodies.

Responsible drug use doesn't exist but there are ways to make drug use more responsible.

Humans and many other animals have always been using drugs.

Drugs can be fun and therefore some will always be taking drugs.

Advertisement for all kinds of drugs (including alcohol) should be illegal

You people killed Layne Staley. I can't forgive that.

I enjoy weed as much as the next degenerate, but that sounds like a fucking terrible OVA. Go read doujins if you want that, or draw/write your own shit.

>>160440745
Same goes to you. You push your views on other people.
