Cops treating fentanyl like a basilisk and pretending they are dying if they look at a bag of it is pretty funny ngl

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 26 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

One of the funniest things I've ever seen is a study done on cops vis a vis fetanyl knowledge

...204 police officers in Indiana. Overall, 129 officers (63%) completed baseline survey and 69 (34%) completed follow-up instrument. Using a 6-point Likert scale, we documented assent with the statement: “First responders who encounter fentanyl are at great risk of overdose by touching it or inhaling it.” At baseline, 79.8% expressed agreement, while 20.2% disagreed. At follow-up, 39.1% agreed, while 60.9% disagreed

Around 40% of hogs are still willfully too stupid, even after training, to acknowledge that fentanyl is not a magical powder that will kill you if you're within the same post code as it.

What's really funny about the fentanyl panic is that it's a prescription pain killer. It's not fucking krokodil, it's something doctors actually give to patients.

[–] CliffordBigRedDog@hexbear.net 35 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (3 children)

I mean even if it was krokodil, i dont think theres a narcotic that works through your skin

If there was there would be hundreds of dead cops every week

[–] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 14 points 8 months ago (1 children)

There is, you can get something like NORSPAN which is an opioid analgesic (uh topical patch) but as far as I know you have to specifically formulate for it.

[–] WayeeCool@hexbear.net 15 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah. It has to be formulated differently for both gaseous and transdermal applications. Fentanyl is infact available as a transdermal patch that absorbs through the skin.

https://medlineplus.gov/druginfo/meds/a601202.html

In addition to this it's been used for decades in gaseous formulation as general anesthesia during surgery. General anesthesia is what a majority of pharmaceutical fentanyl gets used for and it's fentanyl that tends to be what kills people when anesthesiologist fuck up. Famously Russian special forces used the general anesthesia formulation of fentanyl to gas a theater during a hostage situation and ended up killing a bunch of hostages.

[–] Des@hexbear.net 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

it's believed they used a vastly more potent analog though

[–] WayeeCool@hexbear.net 3 points 8 months ago

Yeah, it was carfentanil. The large animal veterinary formulation used to anesthetize elephants and rhinoceroses. Carfentanil has 20 to 100 the potency of fentanyl, which is why whenever idiots steal some from veterinary supplies cities end up with an uptick in overdoses.

the British empire forces open china's markets so they can flood it with opium from India, in order to make money

they were bringing civilization very-intelligent

The American government voluntarily purchases mass produced opiates from the Chinese government

frothingfash the barbaric asiatic commies are literally poisoning us

[–] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 50 points 8 months ago

He only touched the outside of the bag.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 48 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Opiates, famous for making your eyes bug out.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 20 points 8 months ago

If you're a pig you don't nod out on the fent you get tweaked out instead, it's how you test your drug dealer for being a fed.

[–] neroiscariot@hexbear.net 36 points 8 months ago

that boy is full of the holy spirit, I tell you what

[–] PosadistInevitablity@hexbear.net 36 points 8 months ago

Drug lies and the conservative extreme fear response come together perfectly in these situations.

It literally does nothing to them. They’re little babies having panic attacks and wanting to be seen as men still, so they blame the drugs.

pathetic

What's wrong with his face? Is it AI or something?

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 41 points 8 months ago

YT has always been a prime locale for true crime slop, but over the last 2 years it's just become a deluge of the absolute lowest-quality form of "content" imaginable. About half the thumbnails are AI.

Chancellor Gowron disapproves of your post.

[–] Virulent@reddthat.com 2 points 8 months ago

The picture is real except for the face which was swapped out to be more clickbaity

[–] Thordros@hexbear.net 23 points 8 months ago

Love to see cops get owned by a bag of cake mix.

Uncritical support to Comrade Fentanyl.

OK kids listen up listen the FUCK UP KIDS YOU IN THE BACK I FUCKED UR MUM.

I have “died” smoking fetty.

In junkie/opioid user subculture, when someone OD’s and has to be brought back from that calm edge of everything with ~~Narcan~~ naloxone, we say that they “died.”

That’s where my username comes from. Someone I care about a lot was talking about all the times they died. It was a conversation about belief in the afterlife—all the times they died there was just, nothing.

The first time I died, I just blacked out. It’s creepy how blacking out works—until it happens to you, you probably picture it…idk…different. But it’s like someone in real time took a cartoon sized pair or scissors and went snip and suddenly you're somewhere else, sometime else. It’s not as weird as it happens because at least in my experience, you initially aren’t aware of the skip, because there is no skip, really.

There was no time to panic. Nothing like that. I just died.

If I hadn’t woken up, I would have simply forgotten that I ever existed.

The second time, I asked this dude I was hanging out with for a hit off his foil. I had a death wish. I took a pretty big fucking hit. Everything went s l o w a s I p a s

And then I was in a dream I don’t remember except for that I thought it was real.

And then I woke up. He tossed my phone onto my lap and I realized what had happened. The subject was treated very casually. When a friend of mine showed up I told him what happened like it was an accomplishment.

These stupid cops are having panic attacks because they think fetty is fucking sarin.

[–] Amir@lemmy.ml 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Sounds similar to the times when I fainted. Your timeline is snipped and cut together, without it really "feeling" off. It's like you press a button and you're suddenly X minutes further in time, like someone switching from a red LED to a blue LED by flicking a light switch.

The non-existence of time isn't at all like a dream, or (probably) a coma. It's not like a PC going into hibernation mode and getting time to record what is happening and to do restoration bookkeeping on startup. No, it's as if the time never existed.

Very difficult to explain as most portrayals in media make it look like "a deep slumber" while that couldn't be further from what the experience is like.

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 4 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Yeah seconded. Something else weird (might just be a me thing, idk) is that whenever I regained consciousness afterwards it was very gradual, extremely different from sleep. Head comes online first, everything's dark, feel trembling/maybe seizing in my limbs before everything finally comes to and I realize I'm lying face-down on the floor and my nose hurts. Could've also just been concussion symptoms I guess.
