Can’t wait for the epic memes promoting weed
Cannabis will never be as harmful as alcohol. This really outlines their intentions and how little they actually care about harm to children.
Your casual lawbreaking will be used against you.
This is exactly what had me scared straight for the longest time. It’s not the drug, it’s the system that punishes use of the drug that’s the real threat.
The fact that ex-convicts (people that have paid their debt to society) aren’t a protected class in the hiring process is beyond me. At least insofar as non-violent offenses go, there’s no cause to throw someone away like this. This goes especially considering the current state of political affairs around here.
“Corrective Rape” as a trope within the American prison system is probably the darkest part of this cartoon.
Where are the DOGE bros for this government waste?
I’d be flooding Instagram with pro-420 Day memes, if I had an account.
Refer Madness is a fun video to watch and only gets funner after you’ve smoked a bowl.
I cannot see a single reason why this would backfire.
I can think of 420

“I-I just kept eating. Just kept going. A whole family sized bag of doritos. OH THE HORROR!!”
That’s not even a weed thing, that’s ultra processed food designed from day 1 to be as addictive as possible…
Which is totally cool and totally legal
Not like it’s a plant humans have used for thousands of years or something
Alcohol is worse for you than weed. But alcohol is far more harmful for you than many people realise. Being not as bad as Alcohol does not make it good or harmless. However, after many years of very overblown propaganda about the threat of weed the pendulum has swung the other way and no many people falsely believe all talk of the damage weed can do to be propaganda. Here’s a good video explaining the topic; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBRaI0ZeAf8&t=661s&ab_channel=Kurzgesagt–InaNutshell
Warning: avoiding marijuana can lead to unnecessary stress.

If you smoke enough marijuana you can hear all the complicated stuff drummer Jeff Porcaro isn’t playing on the song Africa by Toto.

What a day indeed, and now they are a knight, see? That’s a respectable job.
What was your high score?
I’m pro-legalization (because criminalization does much more harm than good) but why are you all acting like this is a bad thing? Especially considering that the campaign is specifically advocating against YOUTH consumption of marijuana? We can all agree that children and adolescents shouldn’t consume marijuana, right? Just because it shouldn’t be criminalized doesn’t change the fact that weed is a habit-forming drug that impairs memory, concentration, and reflexes. It absolutely CAN be dangerous.
Well, it’s pretty clear that this is a way for the DEA to get other people to spread propaganda for them. They know the idea is unpopular so they’re paying children to do their dirty work for them. They know there are at least a million kids on Instagram who will just do this for a free gift card regardless and they’re trying to exploit them.
Also it absolutely reeks of desperation. They’re trying to force a viral movement in the most inorganic and insincere way possible. It’s like if an unpopular teacher offered to pay her students to go around telling their friends about the benefits of doing extra homework.
And it’s worth mentioning one more time, they’re exploiting children to spread their lies.
What lies? What “dirty work?” They’re not giving the kids a script. The assignment is to either make an educational video about why young people shouldn’t use THC (do you not agree that minors shouldn’t use THC?), OR share a personal anecdote about how marijuana use has affected them or someone they know.
You say it sounds desperate, but to me it looks like a way to catch kids’ attention and get more young people thinking about this. Submit a skit, get a gift card, be engaged in the conversation. Maybe learn something new. What’s so exploitative about that?
Is it automatically “propaganda” to suggest that there’s anything unsafe about marijuana or that kids shouldn’t use it?
It’s not that this is a “bad thing”. It’s wildly ineffective, hypocritical, and a waste of resources when compared to other more pressing issues that they are doing nothing about. Thus, mockery.
I thought there was an executive order today or yesterday (can’t keep up with the implosion into the fourth reich) that any org that receives money from the state can’t make political statements? And wtf would this be then?
Hey Fellow Kids (Steve Buscemi)
Don’t believe that hype that weed is cool because it’s for fools!
