"A bias against cannabis still exists today. While the roots of weed prohibition have many unfortunate layers, storytelling played a huge role in negative public opinion around the plant. Some publications continue to feed into the modern version of “Reefer Madness,” what I call Reefer Madness 2.0. One article from a respected legacy publication just last year centered on how to get your neighbor evicted for smelling like weed. Not only is this type of storytelling cruel and inhumane (what if they are a medical patient, or a child with epilepsy?), most importantly, it’s not based on science."
Nice sunday read. The article goes on to propose to 1. Reframe Weed As Wellness, 2. Lean On Peer-Review Studies and 3. Dare To Question Existing Tech Platforms (and censorship). It advocates for invite-only discord grow diaries, yet fails to mention the #fediverse and #mastodon as great tools to keep #freedomofexpression and #humanrights going.
Lets get that corrected. Help me share this and let Rolling Stone know about our existence.
