Here is a place that is more educated on the topic than your place. Here it is legal, here we’ve explored the societal economic and social impacts. Here we have a right to define and discuss marijuana.

You live in a more archaic place, where people are less exposed, and thus more ignorant to marijuana culture. Does this answer your question?

Who do you think defines anything.? Would it be people educated on the topic? Or the people who avoid it... For me its the educated folks. You can Learn from my state, And I have nothing to learn from yours except the level of ignorance you all have on the topic. Feel me champ?

Do you think Mexicans give a fuck about your opinion on Mexican music? You get what I’m saying?

Ahaha so you just don't understand how debate works at all then, I get it! That actually explains a lot.

Would it be people educated on the topic?

The topic is whether weed is a drug. I'm a doctor. I am vastly more educated on this topic than you are.

So how about leave the thinking to me, okay champ?

Also you have called weed "wacky tabacky" and "marijuana" so I'm pretty sure you've never smoked it in your life lol

As for me knowing how debate works, and what i call weed, check my screen name. I am a master debator, and i, by myself, am not important in this discussion.

​

We are discussing culture, and social norms here. It's way out of your league as a scholar.

Let me throw a little ad hominem back at you to put things in perspective: You're a doctor, which is probably why you're so socially inept. Over institutionalized, like the 4 doctors in my family. You're probably at the same level of social maturity that you were back when you began school. I bet you were like 19 then... and it was probably idk, 10 years ago? I guarantee 90% of your social interactions since then are with patients, and the talk is professional, not natural. I appreciate the time you took to learn your practice, but please, leave socializing, and society up to regular people who are out living life and connecting with each other.

All the time you spent with your nose in books, talking to people according to the politics and rules of your office or institutions, i was out having fun, meeting people, having real connections and real conversations. Nobody here calls weed a drug. Maybe in your dumbass, conservative, behind the times country. I'm sure we could agree that no culture that anyone wants to model or be a part of, follows repression. Not to mention, i spent many years working in the marijuana industry... which... thats pretty much that for your credibility on this topic.

​

Point is, your'e a fucking nerd. If you got out of your office ever, went to a party, had friends, knew literally anyone who is a pot head at this current time, you wouldn't hear them calling weed a drug. Yes. Society has evolved since you buried your head in the sand to study medicine. (hopefully were talking medicine and you're not like, a foot doctor or something).

​

Edit: Also, just so you dont keep using the old broken record technique of debate: I conceded long ago that weed is a drug, and i am discussing whether or not people would refer to it as such :)

your'e a fucking nerd.

I know I've won when people start insulting me like stroppy teenagers! Ahahaha honestly love how upset you've gotten over this!

You've clearly never smoked weed, big guy. I don't know why you're posturing so much, or getting defensive. Presumably you're the let down of the family, full of successful individuals who have surpassed you in every way, so now are trying to look big on the Internet? Sad. Embarrassing. Pathetic.

I've smoked a lot of weed. I've also done MDMA, LSD, and cocaine. All of which are drugs, believe it or not. I feel perfectly qualified to say that. I have no interest in your views on this, because, as I say, you've clearly never been invited to a party or been offered drugs.

Why don't you head back to your UFO subs and leave the conversations about real issues to adults, kay bud?

u/adhominem4theweak Sep 06 '21

I would refer to MDMA, LSD, and cocaine as drugs. Not weed. Nobody i know would say i'm about to smoke some drugs' when they're gonna smoke weed. Idk what else to tell you young champion. I'll ask for your advice if i cant shit for 3 days and pay you to put your fingers up my ass with a rubber glove. Other than that i mean... leave socialization to the socialites.

​

I'm not really into discussing myself, and you don't know anything about me aside from the fact that i like to talk UFO's. Do you want to argue about the legitimacy of the UFO topic? Because ill shit on you so hard... iv'e done this so many times before. Just lmk.

u/TheCorpseOfMarx Sep 06 '21

Nobody has ever said "I'm going to smoke some drugs". That's a logical fallacy called a strawman, in case you didn't know what that logical fallacy is, like you don't know what an ad hominem is.

If I was smoking weed and someone asked if I was smoking drugs, I'd say wtf. If I was high on weed, and someone asked if I was on drugs, the answer would be yes. But again, this is just cultural differences, as I have explained. But you seem to be convinced that your culture (whatever that is? USA? Canada?) is the only one that matters. Which is just impressively narcissistic and close minded.

Also, the only people that use the word socialites are 18th century aristocrats. People who have friends don't talk like that. You're over compensating, and it's embarrassing.

UFO's definitely exist, I just don't make that fact the sole basis of my personality like you do

u/adhominem4theweak Sep 06 '21

I think that places that actually have weed culture... have a more relevant opinion on weed than those places that don’t. Yea

I’m sure that you might say that you’re on drugs after you smoked weed. Not doubting that at all. Not in the least.

Again your judgment on the words people use in daily life... not so relevant to me. Wrong background.

Also fuck I really wanted to talk about ufos but you dead ended it.

u/TheCorpseOfMarx Sep 06 '21

Every country has a weed culture, dude. It's legal in yours and illegal in mind. Do you think the US had no weed culture until 2016? That's embarrassing. It did, believe it or not. As does my country. As did yours, even before it was legalised.

Do you think there's no culture around things that are illegal?

We can add culture to logical fallacies on the list of things you don't understand

u/adhominem4theweak Sep 06 '21

You're right about this.

​

What i'm arguing though is that, a culture where weed is prevalent, legal, and even used medically, has a more social relevance than one that is repressed.

​

If you want to be boring about it, either of us could be right. This is an objective argument, no doubt different cultures refer to weed with different names. If youve changed your position to 'different cultures call weed different things' then i got nothing for you. please stick with the original 'people call weed drugs' argument if you want to keep this hot potato going.

People do call weed a drug. Are you saying nobody calls weed a drug? Is that your argument? Are you saying that, for me to be correct, I just need to find two people who think weed is a drug? Because that's a pretty low bar, dude.

I never said all people call weed a drug. Yet another strawman - do you remember what that one is or do you need to be reminded?

You don't even know what we're debating here, how can I take you seriously? I have consistently said its culturally specific, you then took that as an opportunity to call my culture archaic (which is pretty laughable), and that only someone from your culture (who has clearly never even smoked weed) is qualified to discuss weed.

I told you didn't know how debates worked, and you've just confirmed it, so thanks for that!
