Marijuana’s racist history shows the need for comprehensive drug
reform
--- Quote ---
> As the conversation around the country centers on policing,
criminal and racial justice, and social equity, the topic of the
War on Drugs must play a central part. For decades, the War on
Drugs has been a tool to target Black and Brown Americans and
change life trajectories in those communities for millions of
people. The protests and policy debates across this country seek
to change both the outcomes processes, practices, and
institutions that produce those outcomes. One significant
institution contributing to racial inequity is American drug
policy.

10,000-year History of Marijuana use in the World
--- Quote ---
> "Modern humans emerged some 250,000 years ago, yet agriculture
is a fairly recent invention, only about 10,000 years old ...
Agriculture is not natural; it is a human Aryan invention. It is
also the basis of modern civilization."

> RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Virginia lawmakers gave final approval
Saturday to a bill that will legalize marijuana for adult
recreational use, but not until 2024, when retail sales of the
drug would also begin.
>
> With a compromise bill clearing the House and Senate, Virginia
becomes the first Southern state to vote to legalize marijuana,
joining 15 other states and the District of Columbia. The
legislation now goes to Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam, who
supports legalization.
>
> The bill was a top priority for Democrats, who framed
legalization as a necessary step to end the disparate treatment
of people of color under current marijuana laws. But talks
between Democrats in the House and Senate grew tense in recent
days, and a compromise version of the massive bill did not
emerge publicly until late Saturday afternoon.

Marijuana combines well with Ahimsa and Operation Gaddafi:

Of course, a younger target (who has more reproductive potential
remaining) would be more demographically consequential.

Thailand's Cannabis Revolution | 101 East

drugs.

> Known for flooding the world with drugs from the Golden
Triangle, Thailand's laws became so tough, the country now tops
the list in Asia for the rate of incarceration.

> But recently, the military-led government shocked the world by
announcing plans to legalise medical marijuana, or cannabis.

> Supporters promise a plant that could alleviate poverty and
even cure cancer.

> As the new law takes effect, 101 East investigates how many of
these promises are hype and how many are politics.

The machine minds are really concerned about your "motor
functions", obviously.... :D
Cannabis use linked to subtle abnormalities in speech production
--- Quote ---
> Cannabis use may be associated with subtle long-lasting
changes in speech, according to new exploratory research
published in the journal Drug and Alcohol Dependence.
>
> Cannabis appears to have long-lasting effects on motor
function, including alterations in the way that people walk.
Because speech is a complex motor skill involving the control of
several muscles, researchers affiliated with The Neurophysiology
of Human Movement Group set out to examine whether cannabis use
was associated with alterations in speech timing, vocal control,
and quality.
>
> “Speech is sensitive to brain health. Changes that occur from
drug use can lead to changes in behaviors and cognitive/motor
acts, even in otherwise healthy adults. Professor Gabrielle
Todd’s research group is focused on identifying changes in motor
function that may occur from drug use,” explained study
co-author Adam Vogel (@speechneuro), a professor and director of
the Centre for Neuroscience of Speech at the University of
Melbourne.

Depending on how you feel about language and it's many
limitations, this could be seen as a positive. Not by these
Westerners though of course..... lol!

What was I just saying in the Gnosticism thread in regards to
man-made (especially Western made) "drugs"? Westerners are
managing to ruin cannabis now as well, all in the name of
greater profits:
The Dangerous Rise of Contaminated Weed | High Society
--- Quote ---
> Banks (not his real name) earns tens of thousands of euros
every month distributing weed to dealers in a small town in
central Germany. But he wants to stop, because he says his
product has become poison.
>
> The weed he sells is so laced with synthetic cannabinoids that
it has become a new drug entirely: something extremely potent,
addictive – and possibly lethal.
