People started realizing the "woke teachers are teaching your kids CRT" line was bullshit given that CRT was never actually taught below college level, and "college students are electing to take CRT classes" doesn't quite have the same kick. Obviously they're not opposed to just blatantly fucking lying, but most likely they just found a more effective grift.

I mean there's nothing stopping them from making an account in Hexbear/a federated instance and commenting. In fact please do that, famous/rich/political people, make an account and comment in our threads, that would be a very good idea for you and would definitely not be extremely funny for us.
You are very polite, here you go 
They look like Japanese cartoon characters so probably Japan.
He started voting illegally in 2008 and it took the courts 16 years to get around to punishing him, and he gets a slap on the wrist for it. Anyone want to guess what his skin color is?
The bullying is working, keep it up folks
Of course. But look around you. Our governments won't do that, and no political party that could make it to power is pushing a platform like that. I'm more than happy to make kids playgrounds out of concrete if I knew that bandages were free.
So we should just throw up our hands and do nothing rather than fight for justice.
I agree. But it's not like Alcohol usage will go down once Cannabis is legalized. If anything, people will use them together in a vicious cycle.
So? There are systems that can deal with these problems. Addiction clinics, therapy, support groups.
Throwing baseball bats into a dangerous hockey arena is never a good idea, even if the bats are made of foam.
Why would foam bats be dangerous to throw into a hockey arena? Have you ever been to a hockey game? They wear all kinds of protective equipment. Throwing foam bats at them would probably not hurt that much, if at all. Actually sounds like it would be pretty fun.
Alcohol's effects are immediately visible. It's hard to be an alcoholic and still look at yourself in the mirror happily the next morning. Weed has no such negative phenotype, if anything you will look happier the next morning for abusing it.
Cannabis use is such a menace to society that people who abuse it *checks notes* feel happier the next morning. The horror!
I get that cannabis isn't a completely harmless drug, like most drugs legal or otherwise, but "it's not perfectly safe so it should just keep being criminalized" is a bad take that has an entire history of not working. Legalize it and deal with the problems that crop up. Addiction and drug abuse aren't new problems, we know how to handle them. And for the yet undiscovered health problems that cannabis might cause, legalizing it will open up avenues for research so we can actually figure out its dangers instead of just writing off all cannabis users as (as another user puts it) "mentally fried idiots" or just repeating the same reefer madness nonsense that's been going around since the Nixon administration.
lmao this turns Bankman-Fried into an example of nominative determinism
Looking into it
