This has very little to do with the properties of a drug itself, and more to do with the demographics (poverty, unemployment, overall disenfranchisement, environmental factors like urban density and access to services) of people who use other drugs; specically, that usage of these substances often correlates with such disenfranchisement.
In other words, the people currently using Kratom may not be the same people using other drugs, and their circumstances may be different.
(Not a comment on Kratom, which I don't know much about, besides its popularity in some websites)
