Instead of “state-sponsored” what about/ism just seeing something & saying something about state/s being an intoxicated/addicted state?
From there would follow the jigsaw puzzle piece drop-in-fits - this obviously exploded market segmentation & product placementing of more-more-more hooks.
Give a man a fentanyl fish & hook one residual income stream. Teach a man, in “state sponsored” schools of fish to hook himself more or less continuously & mein gott! Wouldja’ look at all those tribute-taries?
Might as well go all the way. The “man is a social animal” canard. Either correctly define “social” or make visible the lemon juice prefix “anti.”
Pascal wagers are belt-suspenders OCDundancy. But that one observation is right on the money:
'Sometimes, when I set to thinking about the various activities of men, the dangers and troubles which they face at Court, or in war, giving rise to so many quarrels and passions, daring and wicked enterprises and so on, I have often said that the sole cause of man's unhappiness is that he does not know how to stay quietly in his room. A man wealthy enough for man's needs would never leave home to go to sea or besiege some fortress if he knew how to stay at home and enjoy it. Men would never spend so much on a commission in the army if they could bear living in town all their lives, and they only seek after the company and diversion of gambling because they do not enjoy staying at home.'

People, especially when “accelerated” by being clumped up, are the medium/message. And not just lately.
