He facilitated the sale of many dangerous drugs and weapons. You cant run a website without rules and claim ignorance. In the same vein, I think the Purdue family and executives of that company deserve to be in jail for life as well.
It definitely had rules. Purdue pushed drugs on people while misinforming them and doctors, and did kickbacks and all other sorts of corruption. Weapon sales I’m kinda mixed on, probably not the best idea. But absolutely fuck off with that drug war bullshit. If people want to buy drugs and overdose on them they should be free to do so. Drugs aren’t dangerous, lack of information is.
Unenforced rules aren’t the same. I know there are libertarians that think his incarceration was unjustified but they ignore all the bad things silk road did. And drugs are definitely dangerous. Back then you could get anything, there were listings for black market weapons. Don’t try to gaslight me or the rest of Lemmy by trying to make this man a martyr. There are actually innocent people in jail now that need the attention more.
Drugs are not dangerous. Misusing drugs is dangerous. If you’re using clean, tested drugs at a dose that’s documented thoroughly to be safe, where exactly is the danger?
Opioids don’t just jump into your mouth/nose/lungs/veins. Someone has to put them there. If you do that incorrectly, there is a risk of death. You sound like one of those cops that “overdosed” on fentanyl just by looking at it. Anyways, I checked out the “weapons sales” allegations and couldn’t find anything to substantiate that claim. Also, Wikipedia appears to indicate it was explicitly disallowed in the rules you claim did not exist.
“The site’s terms of service prohibited the sale of certain items. When the Silk Road marketplace first began, the creator and administrators instituted terms of service that prohibited the sale of anything whose purpose was to “harm or defraud.”[) This included [child pornography](
“Child pornography”), stolen credit cards, assassinations, and weapons of any type; other darknet markets such as [Black Market Reloaded] ( “Black Market Reloaded”) gained user notoriety because they were not as restrictive on these items as the Silk Road incarnations were.”
It’s funny they posted those rules yet no one followed them. How do you think the drugs got to their mouths? Silk road facilitated that sale and more and did NOTHING to stop them.
People bought them and ate them I’m guessing, unless… oh no! Did Ross personally force-feed your brother Percocet??? Now I understand why you feel the way you do. My bad man, very sorry they drugged your brother. In general though I think it’s probably more common than not for people to buy and voluntarily consume their drugs.

Drugs aren’t dangerous. My brother died of something other than opiate overdose. Morons everywhere.

He sold them illegally so he’s in jail. I’m sorry you are having trouble with that concept. Blocked.
