I've been growing cannabis, working as an advocate and activist for over 20 years. This (low effort) attempt to discredit the "devil's lettuce" is typical of reefer madness, older people who would happily pop vicodin 4x a day then scoff at weed for being a lazy hippie drug.

No drug will wipe out pain but I've seen close to 100 people go from being totally dependent on opiates to function, ditch those awful pills for a few puffs throughout the day.

Weed is benign but like anything can be abused. The simple facts surrounding cannabis are so warped from decades of propaganda. This is because cannabis competes with pharmaceutical drugs, timber, textiles, oil (especially oil), plastics, timber and law enforcement agencies deriving their budget from the "war on drugs" (eg private prisons)

Don't be fooled. Alcohol is far worse and enjoying cannabis can be a very rewarding spiritual experience once you get past the bullshit you've been fed for the past 70 years.

The medicinal drugs in pot have been understood and legal for decades. You don't need to cannabis to get those effects. You're only hiding behind misinformation to rationalize your degenerate drug addiction. Just because it doesn't immediately kill you doesn't mean it's "benign".

Yes, and every doctor will recommend you not drink alcohol either, because it's literally a mild poison. Very poor attempt at a whataboutism.

What a laugh. You love your Pfizer, don't you? They're innefective and a sad comparison to the beautiful plant.

I love being called a degenerate loser especially considering im successful in life, have an awesome family and I'd likely work circles around you. You sound like you could use some cannabis to give you a better perspective.
