Do you know what "opinion" means?

Facts are distinct from opinions. Good opinions are based on facts, though.

Like mine.

Which I just proved to you, that the drug propaganda was purposeful political lies.

Yet you still won't believe it. Why? What is it in you that's so deeply ingrained that you can't even as a thought experiment question something which was literally programmed into you?

And now you get defensive when I point out it's not my opinion, but facts supported by evidence.

This is exactly what I mean. You'd rather chew your own leg off than answer my question from the previous comment. That's how strong the propaganda is, and I don't know why it affects you so much.
