It isn't quite the same, because freedom of speech is necessary for dissent making these particular persecutions especially egregious but in effect, people imprisoned for using substances are also political prisoners. Using substances isn't hurting others, they're just imprisoned because of the political decision to imprison those who dissent from the political philosophies that find that imprisonment convenient or desirable.

Snowden remains a patriot , a modern profile in courage . He gave up everything including a home , career , GF , and his life because he felt it was necessary to sacrifice himself to inform and prove to us that mass surveillance is conducted upon Americans in USA 🇺🇸 . Also God bless Greenwald , Hedges , Goodman , and Assange.
