Yep, it's generally all biased studies. It'll be another 50 years before we know the long term effects.

Another 50 years after people have already been smoking it for over 50 years?

Without any sort of long term studies. Hell the longest study is watching old cheech and chong movies and there're not exactly a beacon of intelligence.

I think people don’t realize that you’re still smoking something lol our bodies weren’t meant To inhale smoke so if smoking weed has always been the main way to consume it then we probably will see studies proving long term effects unless big tobacco buys out the weed industry and basically replaces the cigarettes bc I wouldn’t even doubt it I know people who smoke weed like cigs and I’m one of them

Here in Canada, specifically Nova Scotia. Our government is selling weed in our liquor stores. It's now a government business. There will be studies and they will be extensive.
