    Most are actually receptive and dispite public assumptions,
    do care about their long term health and what they put in their body.
That's where I don't agree. If they really cared, they wouldn't ingest unknown chemicals. Actions speak louder than words. The only reason they keep on doing it is because their experiences so far have been good on average, without too much drama. It's sad but sometimes even the death of a close one is not enough to stop people from blindly trusting street pushers.

I don't personally have a problem with MDMA and I would try it if I could be assured it was pure, with regulated dosage. Purifying street bought drugs and carefully measuring dosages is surprisingly easy and doesn't require a lot of money (FWIW, I'm a chemist).

The absurdity of the situation, in my opinion, is that people are willing to blindingly trust some random (or even a well-known) pusher because the consequences of making due diligence are harsher, in their minds. What I mean is that it's much easier and on average much less dangerous to just ingest a pill than to make due diligence and possibly get caught, sent to prison, etc.
