I was rewatching the TV show Superman & Lois. In that show, Clark and Lois have twin boys who are 16. Their son Jonathan Kent was taking an illegal super drug called “X-Kryptonite”, and Lois and Clark blew up at him. I wonder if they have this energy for abortion because I know damn well Clark and Lois are pro-choice.

So I hate how they violated Jon’s autonomy.

and this applies to real life too; “my body, my choice” should apply to drug use too.

    To an extent sure. But when you start clogging up Emergency Rooms, you start impacting other people. Public health should be the motivation behind drug regulation.

      So what you’re saying is no more football and no more driving?

      Honestly I think it’s reasonable for parents to discourage their kids from doing drugs to protect them from harm, which is their job. But that same logic extended to adults doesn’t track.
