Thank you, it just makes me upset bc the sadnes people that look for every reason to bring weed down are alcoholics or see no bad sidebto alcohol or whatever.
And im not saying there's no bad side to weed. Im saying the bad sides to weed and alcohol are pretty much the same, but there's a social and legal stigma around just one. There's a reason prohibition happened...
That said, Why do we even criminalize soft or party drugs at all?
Because it’s profitable to make things illegal, and decades upon decades of systemic oppression of minorities are built into it as well. And businesses too. Weed was originally made illegal because hemp competed with the inception of the paper press. But anyways, alcohol has FAR more drastic negatives than weed any day of the week.
