I wonder if this is why nothing gets done about Fentanyl. It kills mostly white males.
I have no doubt that's part of it. White males aren't exactly a favored demographic and the social dysfunctions that plague them; alcoholism, suicide, fentanyl, tend to get short shrift.
"Who cares if a bunch of Trump-supporting white boys want to kill themselves with drugs? We should be spending that money fighting monkeypox instead!"
