    If it seems like everyone apart from you is confrontational and dismissive, perhaps it’s time to consider additional perspectives on why that might be happening.

    Because stoners are basically a cult at this point, and refuse anything even as remotely negative as “it’s not good for your cats?”

    To be clear, I smoke most nights… but god damn do I hate people who feel the need to defend weed against everything. It’s a drug, y’all. It’s not good for you.

      I mean, i specifically stated it wasn’t related to the actual topic being discussed, but i can address this anyway i suppose.

      Possibly culty i suppose, about the same amount as alcohol consumers, smokers, people who see chiropractors etc.

      Less than people in organised religion ( big cults ), actual cults and MLM schemes.

      If all of the stoners you know are your definition of culty ( except you of course ), perhaps consider that it’s your choice in acquaintances rather than an entire demographic.

      Can’t say i care either way, but i’d be interested in any studies you might have on the subject ( belief systems of stoners in general, not specifically the ones you know ofc, that would be unlikely )

      To be clear, I smoke most nights… but god damn do I hate people who feel the need to defend weed against everything.

      If that personal preference works for you, who am i to tell you you’re wrong.

      It’s a drug, y’all. It’s not good for you.

      Drug doesn’t automatically imply harm, but i think i know what you mean.
