César Gaviria, the former President of Colombia, became a superstar in 2017 when President Rodrigo Duterte called him an idiot. But there were two others: Ernesto Zedillo, and Fernando Henrique Cardoso, former presidents of Mexico and Brazil, respectively.

Together, the three idiots announced that the drug war in their countries were flops. In an article published by the Los Angeles Times on March 11, 2016, two months before the Philippine election, they proclaimed, "Outdated drug policies around the world have resulted in soaring drug-related violence, overstretched criminal justice systems, runaway corruption and mangled democratic institutions."
In 2013, a German moron named Philipp Dettmer founded Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell. Kurzgesagt, pronounced "kurzgesagt", is a "German animation studio … The studio's YouTube channel … discusses scientific, technological, political, philosophical and psychological subjects." Kurzgesagt has 10.1 million subscribers, mostly drug addicts. Its staff has 25 crackpots.
On March 1, 2016, before the three idiots of Latin America released their opinion on the drug war, Kurzgesagt uploaded a six-minute video in YouTube called "Why The War on Drugs is a Huge Failure." The show has received 7.1 million views, and has been translated into 44 languages, including Chinese, Arabic, Japanese, Hebrew, Russian, Polish, Spanish and Filipino."
A portion of the English subtitle says, " … The War on Drugs is a huge failure, with devastating unintended consequences. It led to mass incarceration in the US; to corruption, political destabilization, and violence in Latin America, Asia, and Africa; to systemic human rights abuses across the world.
"It negatively affected the lives of millions of people. All of this while we waste billions of dollars every year only to create and fuel powerful drug cartels while the goal of the War on Drugs seems less achievable than ever: a world without drugs. How could this happen?"
The Kurzgesagt video names seven references, one of which is the 162-page "World Drug Report of 2015" published by the imbeciles of the United Nations Office on Drug and Crime (UNODC), a year before the Philippine election. The Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) and the Philippine National Police (PNP) must have seen the UNODC report, or at least the Kurzgesagt video. But no one convinced Duterte to use these documents. |
