If you read some of the articles online you will see that a little drugs is tame to some stuff that happens.
I also personally know a Breslover Talmud chachum from EY who had his jaw broken in Uman two years ago bc he got involved and tried to break up a fight between two rival factions.
I’m sure that 90% of the 40K that go don’t see these things, but I can’t imagine putting myself in a matzav were I might be exposed to something like this on RH.

FAir enough
I will grant you the point, and now understand why Breslovers would leave EY to go. But I have actually had Breslov kids come to me collecting “tzedakah” so they can go with their father to Uman. Perhaps now you understand why I’ve always turned them down.
