the Narco state drug influenced human trafficker infiltrated government is either unwilling or unable to protect them
America was supposed to be the winner, to be hip and cool, it won the ColdWar and put a 'Man on the Moon'
so how is a propaganda and culture war being lost?
are people broken and Western culture dies, drug culture is normal and everyone chasing the next 'high'?
the European market on Drugs?
'Opioids, including heroin and its metabolites, often in combination with other substances, were estimated to be present in three quarters (74 %) of fatal overdoses reported in the European Union. It should be noted that multiple drugs are commonly found in toxicology reports from drug-induced deaths.'

As bad as things could get there are probably worse places Russia or North Korea or Haiti for example
However the West propaganda power seems to decline, the USA and much of Europe has lost its old traditional media, the old Western allies are looking 'uncool' The era of 'soft power' gone something that made it all appeal and got people to agree with them is gone. People would take in info or agree with a culture product by way of news or Fantasy Drama Scifi media, the Hollywood politics and Pop song the idea is that soft power is the ability to co-opt rather than coerce, it can make people agree or seduce and sway in contrast with a militarist act or hard power. The idea of soft power might be to create a wonder of Art, a tv show or a video game or a movie, it involves shaping the world preferences, the culture war of others through appeal and attraction. Soft power or lack of soft power can make you see a place in decline or a place growing, it might be a film of a bridge or tower or a sports kick ball event, it could be a trailer or animation, it could be a musical theater show, it is non-coercive, using culture, political values, and foreign policies to make it seem that one culture rises while maybe it is also seen as another falling. The USA is losing within, to puritan old Christian fundamentalists, the Leftwing Nihilist, the open border crazy types who want floods of islamics, the softer propaganda war is being lost and replaced by a nihilism drug culture?
History might look back on this era and think it all very strange as The Neo-Opium-Heroin-Meth Wars instead of the East its the USA, putting moral decay and filth and vice and transexuality and degeneracy all over its tv and movie industry, the US government's campaign to attempt enforce its prohibition while people use trafficking, opium and gun running attacking the culture United States of America from within, while the USA attacks itself by normalization of this deadly drug culture.
I rarely watch tv or movies these days, I want to watch a good movie, the last Academy Award–winning film I seen was Oppenheimer, I think it had a strong message, outside of the great visual and sound and acting performance the adaptation of the book had something unique to say.
but is back to decay again and before the West can rot its mind on drugs there is tv and movie rotting of brains
I am not able to watch much else these days before switching it off, even if someone puts a movie for free on the media video sites, Facebooks or Dailymotion or Vimeo or Twitter Youtube. I don't think good of piracy if a movie sounds good then I might go to the cinema and support it but today there is nothing to support, so many cultural products the songs and movies are empty now and not worth listening to and not watching even if I am given a free movie, a pirate or an open copy its often so bad I will often turn it off
Although sometimes in era of recession and culture decay something slowly rises, in the 60s and 70s you had products like 'The Beatles' trying something. In the old times maybe they said pop was getting worse for a time or that movies declined from the epics, it all became shocking and slasher, the Best 'Holloween' a Nude Horror Movie and Gore War movie, even in these eras some great directors and film products would rise inside indie studios and mainstream Hollywood started to collapse and be reborn.
some of the current 'Oscar' movies the Hollywood top material are just not good as film, they lack the artist merit they say you should watch but are perverted, they are perversions they were performances from books wrote by perverts like Alasdair James Gray sadomasochistic sex fantasies and weird stories of suicide child victims with the brain of her own unborn child they win won a Whitbread Novel Award and won a Guardian Fiction Prize and are praised by Hollyweird perverts, many tv shows recommened I have not been able to watch they seem to obsess with crime, nudity, drugs, anti-social behavior drunken idiots, gangsters, anti-civilization and gore and there are many examples 'True Blood' the TV Series, Breaking Bad, the Gore and pornography of Game of Thrones. There is often Lesbianism, Gayism, Homosexuality or Transexuality on the tv, even full transexual themes like RuPaul's Drag race. A period French era medieval middle ages piece might have an African Black suddenly appear for no reason other than 'diversity casting', it happens also in Shakespeare era or sometimes tax funded like the BBC or they play races and ethnicity against each other in divide political messages and the entertainment seems meaningless, deliberately shocking and graphic or mindless the 'culture' is even spread to teenage cartoons and children's cartoons. Maybe it has been in decay for a while Cronenberg's 1996 movie Crash is a startling combination of sex, violence, and cars. In mainstream film we are back to the sexploitation era and the shocking era of 'Cannibal Holocaust' type movies, as Japan and Italian society stagnates and decays it also took the weirdness to new levels. I find it hard now to mock the older movies that were ok and at least tried, the older pop songs only in recent time which are not that old, before everything was a mindless rap beat, a series of boring notes with no range but auto-tuned, even music and film only from a few years back had 'something' the Superhero Marvel DC stuff that seemed shallow still had something, the remakes after remake even 'The Departed' the spaghetti Western worldwide fame while remaking Kurosawa Japan film, what could be a lazy lack of imagination with the Invasion of the Body Snatchers remakes because at least these films had something a story or a message in them.
Current moral decay and Drug Cultures of the USA might be a natural teenage rebellion, drinking or smoking a joint, maybe they are examples of countercultures that are primarily just going against the previous generation and somehow the 'hippie' era linked to recreational drug use, however it has now become a worldwide gangster Narco industry.
Asia has become a culture exporter again, Japan toons and comics, the anime and manga, Chinese online entertainment, India movie product, indie films from the USA, Europe and Latin America beating Hollywood expensive products, the South Koreans having the top trending shows inside the USA.
Drug deaths in the 1960s and 1970s were considered large numbers, during the height of Vietnam, 5,033 deaths 6,006 deaths 7,101 deaths and 6,771 dead
in year 2020 it shoots up to 91,799
maybe 15 times higher than Vietnam era
the worst individual States for Deaths West Virginia, New Mexico, Kentucky, Delaware, Ohio, Tennessee, North Carolina, California, New Hampshire, New Jersey, the Deaths are in every part of the USA both Republican and Democrat areas
Drug overdose death rates in different countries: Who should be alarmed?
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.117 … 2221075192
Drug overdose death rates exceed four per 100,000 in over 10% of the world’s nations, including Libya (where rates are increasing) and in Russia (where rates have fallen). A comparison of data from five well-resourced nations with high drug death rates showed recently accelerated and alarming increases in rates in the United States and Canada (attributed to influx of fentanyl, plus increased stimulant use). A reported recent fall in Canada’s drug suicide rate may be attributable to misclassification of some suicides as accidents. There is an urgent need to ensure accuracy and better understanding concerning drug overdose deaths and how to prevent them
Although Japan can be degenerate, sleazy, perverted it has not totally rotted from within, in general it seems people of Japan do not support drug culture
if a bunch of Mexicans or criminal people from Asia or Arabia or Europe or Haiti tried to enter Japan and sell drugs they would be promptly arrested, they could be jailed might even be beaten so bad by Japanese authority they would never want to return again, in other countries execution.
So what is wrong with culture and the border? a failed Narco criminal run state a political and economic situation where gangsters take over almost every area, where all legitimate institutions become penetrated by the power of criminal gangsters, there are gun smugglers and people trafficking, a state were drug cartels produce, ship and sell drugs from all over the world from Afghanistan to Africa to Latin America and deal in drugs such as opium, captagon, fentanyl, meth, cocaine, heroin and marijuana, some have operated inside Mexico but have contacts in Spain Europe, they link with Arab muslim gangsters, they buy cheap chemistry equipment from Asia or China then use chemistry in production of illicit product, a network in Mexico. Captagon is a brand name for fenethylline it has made Lebanon be labeled a Narco-State, the captagon industry is also supported by the Iran-backed Shiite fundamentalist group Hezbollah. The collapsed socialist Venezuela has been labeled a narco-state the islamics of Myanmar linked with the second-largest opium producing nation in the world, only behind Afghanistan. New routes being discovered from Colombia through Brazil or Venezuela and Western Africa while trafficking Colombian cocaine to the US at the same time, United States ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley accused Venezuela of being a "dangerous narco-state" while Pablo Escobar and "El Chapo" example of high profile arrests, yet inside the USA there is a market and a demand for the narcotic poison.
