It's not about acting like no one is responsible for their actions. It's about acknowledging that sometimes people make bad decisions about drugs and alcohol in part because their circumstances are terrible and they'll take any relief they can get, even if it's only temporary and even if they know it'll make things worse in the long run. For people who can't get the help they need for one reason or another, self-medicating can seem like the only option left.

You can have compassion for someone and be understanding towards their problems without necessarily approving of their choices.

Yes, that's true - but we can still STRONGLY disagree with people who say that addiction is NEVER a choice.

Doing things that lead to addiction: Sometimes a choice.

Addiction: By its very fucking nature and definition, not a goddamn choice. If it were a choice, you wouldn't be addicted, you'd just have a bad habit (compare: Drinking too much and being an actual alcoholic.)
