I’m a little confused by this response, I never said a drug dealer deserves the same ire as the foot soldiers of imperialism, just that they can serve the same purpose to the imperialists in the domestic sphere. Not sure what the convience store clerk example has to do with this and I wasn’t specifically talking about opium, crack is an upper but served the same purpose as heroin or opium

You don’t think there’s a distinction between alcohol’s penetration into all American communities and the targeted attacks against the black community by planted narcotics?

Also could you address the rest of my comment? Thx

I don't know what the current disagreement is, especially given that my comment centrally agreed with both you and the other commenter. I just pointed out that you were talking past each other in an unproductive manner.

As you claim, it is just a difference of scope. The Quote which constitutes most of your comment, at least without further context, doesn't seem to be stressing the discriminatory drug sales but rather the pernicious nature of drug sales.
