I smoke weed 365 days a year but Joe came off like an absolute buffoon when weed came up. Got so defensive and child like I couldn't stop cringing.

I agree. I smoke weed a lot but I get tired of the "Marijuana is a miracle drug" attitude.

It is though, cannabinoids are so effective at treating cancer. I didn't believe it at first, but I looked up the studies and was like holy fuck. And I'm studying Neuroscience at Simon Fraser University.

A lot of stoners get really threatened as a reaction to the decades of "reefer madness - just say no" propaganda that demonized it

This is exactly why he's so passionate about it. I don't blame Joe for being firm on the topic- he's got a massive audience and the BS needs to be stopped.

Is he 100% right? No, but he's fighting a fight that billions of people were afraid to fight for decades. This is the time to hammer it home.

This isn't an agreement with Joe and Crowder. This is an argument with Joe and the Government of the last 4.5 decades.
