How to confuse retarded masses: get them addicted to sugar then convince them

[protokol]

How to confuses retarded masses: get them addicted to sugar, and other strange chemicals, then convince them it's good since at least it's not a 'hard' drug.  Most still think nothing is wrong with all the shit added to our foods today.  A lot going around about how it's 'natural' etc.  Funny thing is Heroine and Cocaine are 100% natural as well.  These words have a strong negative feeling associated with them.  This was of course done on purpose through commercials, and other methods of indoctrination.  While they made sure the  word sugar has a neutral or positive effect through similar brainwashing.  I see cans of peaches now with sugar added...
This gives you some idea how far they are willing to go.

I see disgusting looking obese fools waddling around talking about 'alcoholics' or 'drug addicts.'  Guess what, they fit into the same category, only in addition to being an addict, they're also too stupid to be aware of it...  This is a problem.

Your post is utter nonsense, Heroin and Cociane are the chemically altered products of Poppy and coca. It has NOTHING to do with the original substance. I have nothing against drugs, but calling those 2 natural, please read something before you post BS like this They need gasoline for christ sake to make it, nothing natural about that

Well actually gasoline is pretty natural, it does have additives but really it's just natural oil that has been fractionally distilled to separate the correct hydrocarbons.

Cocaine is also natural - it is extracted from coca leaves without any synthesis. However, Heroin is semi-synthetic, it is synthesized from naturally occuring morphine and doesn't exist naturally on its own.

Anyway, this "natural vs synthetic" debate is just silly, it doesn't make any difference. Some natural things are incredibly dangerous, other natural things are totally safe. Same for synthetic things. Everything is just chemicals at the end of the day.

I agree with Stargazer re: drugs, they are good tools which can become dangerous in the hands of inexperienced people (a bit like motorcars). Of course not all drugs are "good", I'm generalising a bit here but I'm talking about most popular recreational drugs, not things like thalidomide/scopolamine etc.

On topic, It's well known that too much sugar is bad for you, but there's no conspiracy to trick people into eating it and becoming "confused", that's just dumb. It's just the free market in action, people like sugar so it has become popular.

I read an interesting thing about sugar and fat recently, apparently a meal with a lot of fat and protein, but low sugar (like a cooked breakfast or roast dinner) makes people feel full. However, when you have fat AND sugar together (fast food/chinese takeaway/ice cream etc) then this can trick the body into not feeling full, and it's easy to eat a lot more than you normally would.

I won't argue with ignorant tools.  Reread the text of my second post, and if you still don't get it, find an adult or someone intelligent to explain it to you.

Are you saying that too much sugar is bad for you? If so, I agree. You don't need to quote any obscure science involving sailors from 1793, just look at a few different countries today. Countries with a lot of sugar and processed foods tend to have less healthy people, and in places where people eat more vegetables and less sugar/processed foods, they tend to be healthier.

Do you think there is a conspiracy to trick people into eating too much sugar? Do you not think that the fact that sugar is tasty, is the reason it is popular?

Sure, the eating of sugar will have SIMILAR effects to certain drugs, like the release of dopamine, and the subsequent urge to eat more sugar. But any pleasureable activity will release dopamine, whether it's gambling, the internet, sex, or even someone eating a potato who REALLY LIKES POTATOES.

Should potatoes be classed as drugs? How about a pair of luscious naked breasts, are they drugs?

Sugar is nothing like Heroin:

A. Heroin has physical addiction symptoms and sugar does not.
B. Heroin has an extremely strong psychoactive effect, sugar has a very weak effect.
C. Heroin has a short-lived effect. Effects are even stronger and shorter when injected IV.

All this means Heroin is a metric fuckton more addictive than sugar - Do you ever hear about crazed sugar junkies breaking into peoples houses to raid their fridge for Reese's Pieces? Didn't think so.
