I think people are missing the point here. This was constructed by a special division of the Japanese military. It has more to do with getting the people and more so Chinese soldiers addicted and reliant during WARTIME! Possibly hindered their decision making during war and slowed down their physical movement.

THIS IS MORE THAN JUST CIGARETTE BRANDING OF A CIGARETTE COMPANY AND FOR COMMERCIAL SALE.

Its low key chemical warfare, but more insidious.

Funny how the Fet imports that are the cause of our current opioid issues which are gnawing away at the foundations of our social structure all comes from there..

Fentanyl is a problem because Purdue Pharmaceutical got a ton of people addicted to Oxycontin and then the government suddenly shut the faucet off making the problem almost instantly worse. There was not enough heroin to supply the US addiction needs So it was "fortified" with fentanyl. It soon became clear how much cheaper it was and the profit and ease of transportation. China may use it as a 'weapon' but they don't have to. Mexico, the middle east, criminals and psychopaths the world over just for greed of money and power would do it. Our own CIA directly sold cocaine and started the crack epidemic in this country. China became a problem because businesses were more than happy to exploit workers and slaves all over for greater profit at the cost of their own countries and people. Fentanyl is here and not going anywhere anytime soon, even if China made none of it. We have a huge market for drugs here and it will always be filled by greedy people.

Yeah. But the entire opioid issue is done by American pharmaceuticals to begin with. So that's less Chinese intelligence and more American stupidity
