11. I completely disagree on not looking at him luring young men

He’s a predator. He’s not the only one. All illicit substances “rewire” the brain. Meth is highly addictive, flooding the brain with more dopamine than other drugs. It is very much joined with decreased inhibition and compulsory hypersexuality. Calling out the abuse by men like Buck is not discriminating. I would argue that to not call it out is.
There is an ugly underbelly that exists in the gay community that involves men like Buck that go after vulnerable young men and use Meth to “turn them out”. Several articles have been published recently on this topic. They also call out the meth crisis devastating the black gay community. Not getting the same attention as the opioid crisis.

Meth does the same thing to women as far as hyper sexuality, so it’s not just men. There is definitely a lot of exploitation around it, which is different from other drugs. People can completely lose inhibition and do things they would not normally do. Guys like Buck know this, they use Meth and other” sex drugs” like GHB and “poppers”. to make someone disinhibited.
I find myself wondering if people would be talking about this more if this was being done to women?
