you ever see a bunch of nerds having a slapfight
i understand why, in some extremely antiseptic context, this might be reasonable, but come the fuck on. come on. just come on. come *on*.
the context is obviously "most commonly associated with recreational use" and i absolutely promise you cannot find a person in this entire planet who would not word-associate "heroin" with "illegal recreational drug" even if there are countries where it's a prescribed medication
the united states sets the tone of planet earth. we are the worlds culture, for better or for worse, imposed through the use of violence and propaganda, and we define heroin as a recreational drug. you're not going to find someone who doesn't see it that way
but wikipedia, like twitter, is a place where you invent a guy who doesn't exist and then argue for his perspective. "what if you were born on mars? this encyclopedia entry would make no sense if you didn't have the context of <checks notes> existing on planet earth"
