The depiction versus endorsement debate rages on, as D.A.R.E accuses HBO’s “Euphoria” of the latter.
Representatives of Drug and Alcohol Resistance Education recently issued a statement accusing HBO’s, a D.A.R.E. rep said:
"Rather than further each parent’s desire to keep their children safe from the potentially horrific consequences of drug abuse and other high-risk behavior, HBO’s television drama, , chooses to misguidedly glorify and erroneously depict high school student drug use, addiction, anonymous sex, violence, and other destructive behaviors as common and widespread in today’s world."
Founded in 1983, D.A.R.E. famously taught students to “say no” to drugs, until the program lost its federal funding in the late nineties, after showed D.A.R.E. to be counterintuitive, sparking student’s curiosity about drugs rather than scaring them into sobriety.Superstar Zendaya stars in HBO’sas Rue, a teenager hopelessly addicted to drugs, her warped form of relief from the anxiety disorder that plagues her. Rue slowly sabotages her own life, one bad decision at a time; surviving overdoses, lying to her friends and family, occasionally threatened by psychotic drug dealers.
Clearly, her life is not supposed to be viewed as aspirational - that’s the logical reading of the show. That being said, it wouldn’t be the first time that the moral of a story is drowned out by a glamorous aesthetic;seductive cinematography, a delirious haze of lurid light and sparkling skin, beautifully depict the highs and lows of drug addiction.
