  >> Like britain invaded china ( opium wars ) and forced opium on china's population.

  > how did Britain force the Chinese population to consume Opium?

The Chinese government of the time had banned opium and the British worked to bypass that, eventually with governmental force.

I'm not saying Britain didn't do something _against the will of the goverment_. I'm just questioning OP's nonsense that individuals were forced to consume Opium vs not forced to consume TikTok - in both cases, clearly nobody was forced. And in both cases, it's products made to be addictive.
