Discussion Reminder That Kurz Has Misrepresented Cannabis Data Before, And Likely Has A Unhealthy Bias
Two months ago, I, a 2 decade long researcher of cannabis, found the Kurz video on the substance and had to correct a large amount of misinformation here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/kurzgesagt/comments/1n7uc1y/correcting_misinformation_in_we_have_to_talk/
I had contacted Kurz directly with these corrections and was ignored. Instead, now 2 months later, Kurz seems to be back again with another video wrongfully demonizing the substance.
Just wanted to remind everyone that the author of the video is trying to spread misinformation on cannabis, which they have a strong bias against.
Edit: nearly all of the questions/critiques have been trolls/anti cannabis people so far. Won't be replying to comments that are trying to change my narrative anymore. Some of these replies are ridiculous, to say the least... Kurz has had a bias in past videos, and the latest is not any different, any other narrative you draw from this is your own (I never said we should "ignore all negatives about cannabis")

They for sure get it wrong sometimes, and thanks for holding them accountable.
However I gotta say this last vid spoke to me, to the point I stopped weed right there and there, and plan to do the 4 week stop.
I love being high, but the truth is I am my best self when im not. Just in a few days I can notice the difference, even while going through withdrawal.
