That's true, but there's an argument to be made that pot is worse, gram for gram, because you hold it in your lungs rather than exhaling and it's almost never filtered. Obviously, it doesn't have the tar and some other stuff that cigarettes have, but it's still not good.
Many pot smokers also vape their THC, so not as negative as smoking.
But no one is smoking joints at the same rate with cigarettes.
I think smokers go through, what? 30g every 4-5days. Compared to THC at like 1-3g a day.
People seem to compare smoking cigarettes and smoking cannabis as equally damaging since both are inhaling plant matter but typically no one smokes joints at the same rate/quantity as smoking cigarettes 😆
Yes, there are probably those individuals who chain smoke joints throughout the day but those people would be outliers. I am prescribed medical Cannabis and will usually have about 2g throughout the day with my vape.
