This flew over your head but it is heavily implied that the US' "war on opium" was in fact a deliberate effort to subsidize opium production and transport, a policy that we have pursued for the benefit of our own state-backed terror organizations in many other countries. Regardless of all other opinions on the US and the Taliban, this is an issue that the Taliban is objectively better than us on, and saying "lol who cares" is not an argument against talking about it since obviously the people in this thread care because they're in here talking about it.
