They managed to ramp up military/weapons spending in the US and Europe, and massively boosted the price of oil. The idea that Trump lost is naive in my opinion, this was a big cash grab just like Venezuela was and certain people will have profited massively from it.

    Not sure where you are so perhaps it is different there but I've never seen media framing ND people as a bad influence is this way. They usually frame using it as an excuse as the bad part. And I think the media is right to report this if that is happening because it is used by people like the cases you mentioned and for much less serious abuse as well by people who are certainly not ND. I think using it as an excuse for shitty behaviour is disgusting, and if the media are claiming that ND people are bad because this is the behaviour they are capable of then that is also disgusting.
