Please stop treating weed as a magical cure-all

Again, I’m allowed to have my own opinion. If I want to do my own research and conclude that Cannabis is, to me, a harmless flower and that THC actually does not stunt the development of a young brain and that THC is anti-inflammatory and that inflammation is the root cause of most disease, i should be able to do that and not be told to “stop acting like there is nothing wrong with marijuana”

THC by itself is harmless and promotes homeostasis so idk what the fuck you’re talking about. Do you even know what homeostasis means? They didn’t teach me that word at my school to be honest. Did they explain the endocannabinoid system to you in your school?

The reason i’m comparing cannabis to food is because entire civilizations have lived off of it as a main source of food or the course of history. It contains all the essential amino acids that humans need for a healthy diet, And Yes, apparently we DO need to boil it down because for some reason people like you are desperate to find reasons to talk shit on the cannabis I eat daily.

Again ill ask you to find me even one study suggesting THC or CBD is toxic to human tissue or intoxicating to the human mind. Again, you can’t.

How about instead of wildly searching for a negative associations with “marijuana”, we point out that Doctors need to be able to use their knowledge and skill to make their own informed decisions about this. But they can’t because federal protocol won’t allow them to.

In my opinion there is absolutely no harm whatsoever directly caused by cannabis and there are endless more important issues concerning this plant that need to be focussed on and addressed.

Like why was the name changed from cannabis to marijuana. Who made that decision? Even the UN refers to it as cannabis. Why did the DEA change the name?? What was the reason for that??!!

Honestly i think its people like you that are holding federal legalization back. Its always “we need to stop pretending theres nothing wrong with marijuana” and never “we need to learn how to distinguish bullshit propaganda from real science so that doctors can actually prescribe this flower without fear of losing their license.”
