12 fev 2024 ano - "Opinion: Many Americans believe migrants
bring fentanyl across the border. That’s
wrong and dangerous"
Los Angeles Times 2024, Feb 12
Descrição:
Two unrelated facts combined with a lie form a powerful and dangerous piece of misinformation that is spreading virally.
The facts are that a drug overdose epidemic is killing more than 100,000 Americans a year and that far more migrants are crossing the country’s southern border than ever before. The lie is that the migrants are bringing fentanyl, the highly addictive opioid behind most lethal overdoses.
Most illicit fentanyl is indeed made abroad and smuggled over the southern border. But it’s largely transported by U.S. citizens, not migrants.
