Yeah, but not worse than just “bad”, whereas “evilness” sounds worse compared to just “evil.”
My point is that it might not the most colloquial of English use, but MLK Jr didn’t exactly speak vernacular either.
So just because something sounds a tad off doesn’t necessarily mean it’s wrong. And in a lot of cases it’s the opposite, because languages just keep evolving.
I thought exactly that. Opened the post, upvoted this thread.
However couldn’t not Google it, and it may be on purpose.
evilness
noun
evil·ness
: the quality of being evil : badness
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/evilness
While it does sound better with just “evil”, I wonder if they wished to exactly convey that what is being created is the quality of being evil in some people. All in all, that goes under the umbrella of evil, sure. But if we replace “evilness” with “badness”, it no longer sounds worse than the alternative, just “inequality creates bad”. Ofc you can’t compare directly like that, I’m just trying to make the point that black civil activist haven’t historically been that bad at language use, so perhaps we’re just feeling the more colloquial version but that this may be prescriptively better, idk.
I’m no languinolologist.
Well it is.
And it’s not a secret either.
Trump is Putin’s lapdog and Putin just wants to destabilise US and EU to level the playing field for Russia.
Often Russian campaigns aim to disrupt domestic politics within Europe and the United States in an attempt to weaken the West
Russia seeks to promote American isolationism, border security concerns and racial tensions within the United States through its disinformation campaigns
It’s cheaper per dose, not per kg.
You only need micrograms to have a good time whereas with amphetamines it’s decigrams.
And even if the motivation was in place, again, it’d be harder to pass of meth as lsd than it would be to pass milky chocolate as water.
They’d just have some buzz and a somewhat psychedelic effect from whatever they were sold. I’m not convinced you yourself got real lsd, if you think it’s cheaper than other drugs.
I’ve done literally every single drug you can even imagine. You just clearly have no experience if you think anyone even slightly experienced could be fooled to take meth as lsd.
I’m not exaggerating with “it’d be harder to pass hot chocolate as water”.
Do you seriously have trouble with the concept of why mixing flour into coke is beneficial for the dealer’s bottom line?
That’s not adulteration, you donkey. That’s the dealer ensuring noobs like you don’t kill themselves while also increasing their profits. And if you put flour in your meth and sold it, you’d have less fingers in a week. What you use is much better and less noticeable substances. I know which ones, I’ve done it. It’s about adding non-psychoactive, non-harmful substances, so your users don’t notice nor get sick so they actually come back.
Although kids like you, when you cut shit, even if you didn’t use flour but what we actually use, you’d cut it too much and get caught because you have no understanding of what you’re on about.
Unless youre getting some stone hard soap bar from the Russians, yeah, you can actually taste if there is or isn’t something added to your weed. Just like you would if I dipped your cigarette in petrol and let it dry out before you smoked it. It would be painfully obvious it’s adulterated.
And again, for what reason? What is the motivation of adulterating drugs?
Afaik various random amphetamines are most often sold as molly and especially lsd
Why would you sell someone amphetamines as lsd? First off, LSD is cheaper, by a lot. Secondly, you use them in completely different ways and one is stinky af and the other is completely tasteless. It’d be like trying to pass off coffee as hot chocolate. Do the drinks have some vague similarity and a person who doesn’t know what either means could be mistaken? Yeah.
But anyone who’s ever had a cup of coffee wouldn’t.
especially lsd, which latter is reportedly completely impossible to find for real in the parts of the world where I am, except maybe for a thousand bucks a tab.
Well sounds like you’re in, idk, some Asian country with extremely harsh drug laws? Even so, you could order it by post for 20 dollars a tab. You’d have to pay in crypto and there’s not a guarantee it makes it there, but just because you don’t know any sellers doesn’t mean it’s not there’s. You just don’t have the connections.
Completely depends on where you’re from and who you’re buying from, but not that I’ve ever seen.
“lacing” drugs as a concept is about as reasonable as reefer madness.
What on Earth would be the point of poisoning your customers?
It’s not like MDMA is that hard to synthesise that there’s some sort of evil cabal of drug manufacturers who just all decide to poison a supply.
Stop listening to propaganda. But also, be mindful of what you’re doing. That’s why testing points are quite common in more progressive countries.
Because while “lacing drugs” is completely idiotic, selling for instance carfentanyl as MDMA is something that could very well happen.
Yeah and that’s not even a joke.
I’m gonna use more pretentious words just to reiterate the values of this succinct and correct comment.
Serotonergic drugs, also sometimes known as empathogens or entactogens (enhancing empathy and tactile sensation) have been shown to honestly be able to take care of depression terminally ill people have, for up to months, with a single dose.
Ofc there should be therapists as well, it’s not as simple as giving someone unfamiliar drugs telling them to eat them and that’s it. No for the terminally ill for instance you’d want a therapist there to help work out the experience of the session.
But for anyone somewhat healthy and young and looking to experience something like that, just go to a rave. Can’t tell you which though, as stimulants also have the people who use dopaminergic drugs and those don’t exactly make one happy.
Or just read up on what mdma is how to use it safely and look up some artist you like from the EDM scene (so that itd be higher chances of other people rolling as well) and go.
Genuinely the happiest nights of my life some of them. Some not as much, went a bit beyond therapy. Lol.
Doing that in Europe would be a bit different than doing it in South-America. No offense to any South-Americans, but they’ve a long history of being generally fucked over by 'Muurica.
And you’ll probably understand why instinctively I would say cats get that more than dogs.
(And I’m a dog-person much more than a cat-person.)
Don’t learn Finnish I guess.
No gendered pronouns and we honestly use “it” (se) as a pronoun. No, I would never use it in English unless I meant to purposefully dehumanise someone, but in Finnish it’s just the normal colloquial version of a personal pronoun, whereas “hän” is a 3rd person pronoun that’s more formal, (but also non-gendered) . Pets usually get to be referred to as “hän” with the more formal personal pronoun, weirdly enough.
It’s about as massive a thing as plastic straws and that annyoing little tab in all caps now.
kneels on pregnant woman
Shit.
Honestly, every single time I think there can’t be any more horrid shit to surprise me… there is.
Wanna know what got deleted? PM me.
That’s more of a neologism, whereas “evilness” veers more toward the archaic.
