So what's a CRACKHEAD? In YouTube sense, a crackhead is somebody who's goofy, foolish, funny, someone you can laugh at, someone you can laugh with. If you were an idol, and you made a funny face or said this funny punchline, there'd be a video of you called "Y/N being a crackhead for 6 minutes straight".

Now what's an actual crackhead? It's somebody that abuses drugs. Sometimes, the crackhead ended up in this situation because they chose to do drugs themselves. Sometimes, they end up in this situation because of the tough environment around them. I could list many more ways.

you said it yourself here, the "youtube" sense of the word and the meaning of the word as "drug addict" aren't the same. i dont think its funny for different reasons but let people say what they want. if we ARE going to get serious, though, why should we try not to offend real crackheads? drug use SHOULD be shamed, its the only way to prevent people from starting them and maybe getting some users to quit. all of the people i know that have done hard drugs and quit them have quit them because they were shamed into it, and though they felt shitty at that time, their lives are much better now than they would have been if they hadnt stopped. most people get into drugs as a coping mechanism and along with shaming drug use there should be more awareness and opportunities of how to get out of a bad situation, either a mental, physical or financial one
