Cannabis stigma is deeply encoded in the American psyche. A result of a now century-long, well-financed, well-executed, propagandist culture-design project engineered to protect the plutocracy at the expense of the polity. Antiracist pedagogical frameworks will be our best hope.
@chris_honeybee That’s one take. Another is that for decades there have been hundreds of coffeeshops all over town, in every neighborhood, serving locals and tourists alike without too much disruption. And though stigma persists there, it is different in quality and degree than here
@timothy_dexter_ I’m also curious about two other big questions…
1. How will this impact interstate commerce?
2. How protectively will pharma react to their new windfall?
@HIGH_TIMES_Mag Sorry to take this to Twitter, but you’ve now taken my money for both an annual subscription and a renewal a year later, and I haven’t yet received a single issue. @Hollandbuds@joncappetta You should know about this. Oy vey
@HIGH_TIMES_Mag@HIGH_TIMES_Mag Still crickets? Paraphrasing that classic Seinfeld episode “You know how to sell the subscription, you just don’t know how to mail the magazines. And that’s really the most important part of a subscription: the mailing.”
@drcaplan We have a loooong way to go everywhere! As a neurodivergent self-medicating cannabis patient I feel much safer in a policy environment that doesn’t criminalize my health.
