The 5 conservatives that actually give a shit about state’s rights are gonna be so pissed.
Honestly, it wasn’t that hard to get illegal marijuana. All this will do is cut tax revenue and increase crime.
Republicans don’t actually want to stop crime. They want to act like tough guys, punish those they don’t like and make sure their “team” can get away with crimes.
If anything, they REALLY want an “easy” crime to crack down on, so this is why they are making literally everything illegal, like porn and weed and having a penis in the wrong room or glancing at a cop without a smile on your face.
The image was loading slow for me, but before it even loaded I knew what it said lol
No country of potheads has ever thrived, or ever achieved anything at all.
Dude’s obviously never been to Silicon Valley, lol.
I’d rather my kid smell marijuana than smell cigarettes.
I’d rather my kid grow up and smoke weed, then get blacked out on Whiskey. And I like whiskey.
Can’t have people getting high and start being introspective and caring about others
Ngl I smoke pot to stop thinking, not start it.
I like that people don’t get arrested for weed anymore, but I also don’t like the gentrification of it. I don’t want to buy weed from a VC funded apple store.
Buy seeds and all the stuff to grow tomatoes
“Our society thrived when everyone was smoking cigarettes and drinking whiskey,” wrote Daily Wire commentator Matt Walsh, completely ignoring the countless, well-documented, negative impacts (violence and death) of those two American vices. “We became the most powerful nation in the world with liquor and nicotine. No country of potheads has ever thrived, or ever achieved anything at all. Every city that legalized it became an even bigger shithole basically overnight. The entire history of western civilization tells us that marijuana is far, far worse for society.”
Dumbest fucking take I’ve read regarding weed in the U.S. in probably the past two decades. This is another one of those things that’s like so low on the list of outrageous things that require attention right now, but it’s just so fucking unbelievably dumb that it somehow becomes salient enough to be noticable above the chaos that is the normal background.
The way he is so confidently trying to gaslight society like an overbearing parent, as if we have no frame of reference regarding marijuana policy other than what we learned in D.A.R.E.
Those shithole cities with their absurd abundance of tax revenue from marijuana sales.
Opioid sparing effects in Medicare enrollees with access to medical marijuana.
Fewer lives ruined due to a reduction of nonviolent incarceration rates.
I’m not sure what kind of utopia Matt Walsh believes he is advocating for by rolling back even more evidence based progress, but it sounds like a shithole.
Yeah, it’s Matt Walsh of the Daily Wire. A dumb shit take is an achievement for that crowd.
Nah, a good take would be an achievement. Dumb shit takes is their bread and butter over in editorial land there.
I just mean that their average is well beneath dumbshit.
Oh I know I was just making a joke 😅
He wants to go back to a “utopia” where it’s ok to beat your wife
~~Its ok ~~ It’s EXPECTED to beat your wife, how dare she get uppity??? /s
No shit, it’s a fantastic excuse to arrest and detain/deport people for holding plants while you’re out there obliterating 4th amendment rights.
A guy at my work place swore that Trump was about to legalize pot
Which does have backing. This is coming out because Trump said he wanted to reschedule THC. Not all of MAGA is behind this.
Anyway, release the Epstein files.
Between rescheduling THC and calling the UK out on its bullshit, Trump’s dangerously close to being chill for once…
…Is what I’d say if this shit wasn’t going on Points to ICE treating brown skin like a crime in and of itself Oh and ya know those threats to send the military into blue states…
Read the article. He is talking about changing its schedule, yes.
Someone must have found out it contains benefits and brings good to the world. Better kill it!

Combine it with this quote:
Far-right conspiracy theorist Jack Posobiec called people smoking weed outside a “huge factor” in violent crime in Washington, D.C. “States with legal weed you can just smell it all over in public,” he continued. “Can’t take kids anywhere.”
Because everything was so great when there was a nicotine haze in every restaurant. I don’t even like the smell of burning a joint, but I’ll take it over shitty cigarettes.
I do admit that a good cigar can smell really nice. But I have a family history of asthma as it is, and there’s no way I’m touching one.
Matt Walsh is one of the most smarmy fucks around. I swear, some people listen to him because he has a nice haircut and smile.
I only wish he was older, like Trump, so we wouldn’t expect to have him on the earth for another two decades.
Trying to rewind the USA back to when we were all smoking cigarettes and drinking whisky is insane.
As the article states, Trump is considering rescheduling marijuana making it easier to sell. It’s the right wing influencers who oppose it. The GOP politicians love weed because it makes people apathetic and sit out elections
Man, there’s some biases in there you should probably unpack.
Yeah sure he is.
lol good luck. The supply chain is so big that the growers and supplies won’t go away any time soon or 10 years. You’re just being back 90s drug deals. I guess dumbass republicans hate money.
