Last thing. A film being “interesting and worth seeing” doesn’t mean that you agree with the apparent message of the film. It feels like people try to find a message, decide if they agree and, if so, will then say they found it interesting. Interesting can be disagreeable.

Yall, shame does not stop drug use or any behavior you deem bad or negative. It pushes people deeper into the shadows and causes more harm. You may not like it, but there are tried and true public health practices that save lives. We should embrace them.
