    Sigh… leave it to Lemmy to turn a discussion about cannabis into complaining about Gaza again like in almost every other thread. Everyone knows about the genocide and how awful it is, but none of us can do anything about it right now and it’s not relevant to the topic at hand. Can we please have a discussion about other things without it just devolving into fighting over it?

    Anyway, as a Canadian, our country hasn’t fallen into mass chaos and drug abuse despite cannabis being legalized. I’m sure the federal government loves the extra tax dollars, and we don’t need to buy from shady black market dealers so it’s usually safer. I hope America can learn from what we’re doing up north, cannabis shouldn’t be illegal.

      pssst…it’s mostly Russians trying to manufacture an October surprise for Trump.

      its weird how one day all the threads were about “Biden bad, Harris bad by-proxy, vote for anyone but Harris.”
