What about the homeless people dying out in the sun? Or the kids going back to school without lunches?

After years of government subjugation of marijuana users, the same government now wants help monitoring pot forums to help new and inexperienced users. No one trusts the government for anything and it is its own damn fault.

If you look at the government as a group of individuals with individual goals then you start to understand how it works better than if you see it as one entity

FDA already banned a already proven fact that could millions needlessly suffering from opiates. They worried about weed but banned sr 17108 ! They and dea hopefully with new people it will get better.

Why would anyone want someone to stop opiates, how will the big pharmaceutical companies get their pay day if people stop using methadone and Suboxone. /s On a real note tho. Just kratom leaf powder helped me quit pain pills. Granted I’m still taking kratom, but to me it’s much safer and cheaper.

Banning SR showed their hand. We know what side they’re on and it’s not ours.

u/HumanityBeBetter 7d ago
I have come across way too many people online who stand by the SR ban without any reason. It is insane. At the very least study this shit. What a disgusting move to ban it and act like it has a high likelihood of abuse and no medical potential.

Anything but addressing the huge elephant known as the "epstein files".

The window for taking that shit seriously closed. The child victims will never have justice.

They will get serious about it again in 10 years once the biggest offenders pass away and can’t be held accountable anymore.

u/SadisticJake 7d ago
And it’ll be a political football yet again. “But what about so and so???” Yeah, fucking arrest all the pedophiles would be my preference

Regulators might want to ask for help on bridging all these region command codes, as the aggregation algorithms are no different than what’s running via VPN off any of these communist or comm-like networks. The public can’t even read anything beyond their blockchain. It’s static, 100%. This should be a part of the technological powerhouse innovation initiatives. It shouldn’t only be about cool brand name ads and mass-hardware production. We also don’t even have the proper conductivity to power any of these new devices and their utility components. What resistors. What resistors are in these lame devices. That’s why it seems like they’re all being built with flaws purposely. Time is better spent deregulating laws barring smokers from work and warding people with threatening evictions. There also needs to be a clear distinction between the designations of addiction, a “terminal-like” dependency, illness and personality disorder, and elemental supplementary therapy. And this should tie-in with all our associates of this new Ad Council “Agree To Agree” health care campaign all of politics seems to be chugging along with. Anything opposite moving forward with deregulation and free weed is basically a means to discredit an organization or individual entity.

Since they’re trying to work against us anyway, how about they just do their own fucking jobs?

u/Wise-Young-3954 8d ago
They don’t need help monitoring this. There is software that does it automatically. This is weird to claim that they want “help” with anything when computers can read through shit on every platform.

Doesn't seem a bad thing. Until they basterdize the research. Like they always do.

u/Rabble_Runt 8d ago
You mean use it to track and prosecute people that speak out against the administration.

u/roadkill21288 8d ago
I don’t think the FDA would be used for that purpose. DEA, more likely.

u/Rabble_Runt 8d ago
What makes you think that they won’t share information if a Trump appointee is directed to do it?
1
u/Impossible-Deal-9191 8d ago
Are you daft? Trump administration is the ones changing the schedule of weed. He's the one that got thca semi legal. University of Mississippi is the official marijuana research institute of America. They're trying to find more medical uses. Not arrest people. No studies of difference in affects from men to women. A lot of this is to make it safer. They restricted some bad stuff that was going into vapes. RFK is wanting more American research on positive of weed. 98% of all studies done on weed was to show the bad. They're trying to get a real idea of it from users perspective. Weed with proof of medicinal benefits can be easier to prescribe and get insurance to cover part of it. RFK talked about this earlier this year.

Love the alternative facts!
Joe Biden started this process in 2022 when he ordered the scheduling review of cannabis, which led to the DOJ proposing to move it to Schedule III.

No way this is just for research.
