The Prison-Industrial complex is pumping out criminalization literature. Here’s an older article that talks about how it works regarding homelessness, but you can see how it works with drugs as well.

Good link. Having funding from reactionary billionaires who fund private for profit prisons is quite an incentive to spread propaganda.

I noticed that when more sources do report about something (even though they got money for it), my family does take it more as “true” or “known” than if it is one really well researched media/academic outlet that reports on it (or in this case the inverse).
