Venezuela

Really? Out of all of South America, you only emphasize Venezuela? Seems like anti-Venezuela pro-American BS POV. Undue weight was given due to USA political agenda. Colombia seems to carry more weight by all acounts, yet it is barely mentioned... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.121.84.11 (talk) 16:07, 3 feb 2024 (UTC)

I thought the exact same thing when I read it. Anti-Venezuela agenda rather than balanced content. 2001:569:7A36:1E00:99D1:91DB:E49D:8AB9 (talk) 20:01, 3 feb 2024 (UTC)

I disagree, Venezuela is only in the spotlight due to them kicking out the DEA and their president having close ties to criminals and drug traffickers. DisputedYew4083 (talk) 18:20, 3 feb 2024 (UTC)

Narcotic ambiguity

Preferably use the terms 'illicit drugs/substances' and avoid any use of the term 'narcotic', it having been so debased and rendered pejorative in modern usage, certainly in the Anglosphere. Most opiates and opioids, tranquilisers, alcohol and cannabis are narcotics in the strict sense; sleep-inducing. Stimulants however are not traditionally considered narcotics; that is, they are not sleep-inducing. 122.151.210.84 (talk) 19:03, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
