Fentanyl comes from Opium. It is produced from the chemicals found in the plant. It's like the High Fructose Corn Syrup of the Opium world.
Irrelevant to my post.
Did you see thye difference in the phsyical amount of powder constituting a lethal dose between opium and fentanyl?

It's so highly toxic that it's nearly impossible to handle in a mass distribution setting without advanced scientific and laboratory equipment to analyze and control dosage.

Yes, this is exactly what people are doing. At the most basic levels (i.e. the low level dealers), they're using the drug to be cut into drugs like coc aine and heroin to make those drugs go further (i.e. more profit), but this is only because it's available. The real question is, why is fentanyl all of a sudden so available to use in the first place? Lots of other substances (far less harmful) have been used for decades to cut with illegal narcotics to increase profits, but never before have illegal narcotics been mixed with even stronger illegal narcotics. Again, this is new. And, all the explanations by both the authorities and the MSM to date for why this is occurring do not add up. Something is amiss.

Lets not forget tobacco.
In particular the Nicotine Vapes or Vaporizers or what ever they're called .
Those are marketed Directly at Teenagers.
Teenagers here in the US CANNOT buy vape legally . One has to be 21 , and all vape shops card them . I get carded even though I am old and they know me when I walk in the door .

There is nothing like an 8th-grade dropout that is working well under this much that will kill in their single hits.
I read like the vast majority of fentanyl is processed in China and gets here mostly through Mexico. 1 kilo will make 500,000 pills, what could go wrong...
Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid, which means it is manmade in laboratories. It does not rely on the opium poppy for production like opiates such as morphine. It is produced through a number of chemical reactions that require specialized skills and access to restricted chemicals.
The full chemical formula for fentanyl is N-(1-(2-phenethyl)-4-piperidinyl-N-phenyl-propanamide. The drug is derived from piperidine, an organic compound that is used in the synthesis of many pharmaceuticals.

I'm just going to say it.
The useless eaters, the elderly who aren't being killed by covid will be killed by Chinese fentanyl with the approval of the US government.
