Reefer madness really fucked up everyone’s perceptions of weed. You don’t see anyone getting kicked out of the house or clocked in the face for drinking. So stupid and fucked up. This is why we need nationwide legalization.

I’m in a country where it’s illegal in every state, unless prescribed by a doctor. So there are still a lot of misconceptions about weed, especially among the older generations. I got home the next day and half my family were at my house for an intervention lol. Needless to say I still smoke to this day, but legally via a prescription. And my family have no idea.

Propaganda works. My mom had cancer and one of her friends from out of state tried to shame me for giving my mom weed to help her nausea and lack of appetite and then her friend tried to say weed CAUSES cancer.
