Buying heroin does not mean supporting the Taliban or terrorism.

If buying heroin means you are supporting the Taliban, then eating meat means you are supporting animal cruelty and abuse for the countless deaths in the slaughterhouses by the seconds; countless poultry bred, stuffed fed and infused with hormones to be slaughtered the next moment.

And if you donate money (or buy) to a privacy program development such as Tails, PGP, Tor or encryption, you are supporting terrorism by improving the technology for anonymous-privacy communication and network, isn't it?

Then does supporting and advocating bitcoins means you are supporting criminals or terrorists as well since it's an uncontrolled currency that they might use?

Paying U.S. taxes supports the terrorists too.

Using heroin does support terrorism, eating meat supports animal cruelty, etc etc

I'm not just gonna alter reality to not feel guilty. It's pretty blatant

Fun fact: When the US invaded Afghanistan, the opium plant production actually went up, rather than down. [source]

If you are paying a vendor for Heroin, which was imported from Afghanistan through Taliban controlled routes or groups then some of that money likely will be used in acts of terrorism which the Taliban sponsors. From each dollar you spend a fraction of it might be used to blow someone up, might be a local school, some village or foreign soldiers.

Then eating meat means you are supporting animal cruelty and abuse for the countless deaths in the slaughterhouses by the seconds; countless poultry bred, stuffed fed and infused with hormones to be slaughtered the next moment.

Yes, you're right. The world isn't a fair place. But there's a big difference. The CIA won't train poultry to become militants or separatists, and most of humanity actually needs to eat. Nobody really needs heroin though, if you don't want to sponsor the terrorism don't buy Heroin, not simple for most probably, but I personally really wouldn't care.

Of course that's exactly what we're doing, willingly or not.

OP is a bit of sarcasm.

Of course you're not. You're supporting the CIA. 'Murrica.

We all know the government is bringing in the drugs or extorting people who are bringing it in and allowing them to do so if they keep up on payments. I'm more worried about supporting them.

Depends where in the world you are buying heroin. Most likely in the United States your heroin is coming from Mexico, Columbia and/or Latin America.

Only 1% maybe less comes from SEA (The Golden Triangle). Not sure the percentage comes from Afghanistan. In the UK the percentage is much higher that your dope is coming from Afghanistan and going through Iran (highest number of heroin addicts in the world) and Pakistan.

I wouldn't say you're supporting the tali per se, more like your supporting some poor farmer who's just trying to get by. That's why US troops were "hands off" on poppy farms when we had a large force there.

Whoever said if you're paying US taxes you're supporting terrorism is true to a sense as well. We (CIA) basically paid a latin american man to bring crack into the united states to support a corrupt government (I believe Chile?) in the 80s. There is an awesome documentary about "Freeway Ricky Ross" that explains it.

We supported the Taliban when they were fighting Russia in the 80s. We also supported Iraq in the 80s during the Iran/Iraq war. Regan did a helluva job that in the long run ended up killing thousands of American men and women.

And planting trees means you support providing oxygen for terrorists. Terrorism is really just a fear term used to spread more terror than what is real

I love meat but by eating it I do support animal cruelty and slaughterhouses, saying otherwise would be ignorant.

The only diamonds I buy are blood diamonds. I do it because they are cheap and they make me feel good when I wear them.
