RE: Cannabis, Marijuana, Pot, Ganja, Weed, Dope, Does It Matter What You Call It?
It doesnt matter, but I exclude Marijuana from my vocabulary because I do not want to legitimize the war on drugs.
I believe the language people use demonstrates their character, so if they only use 1 word it says a lot about who they are, and will be a good conversation over a joint to find out why their freedom of speech has been so oppressed.

You mean they pushed the word marijuana while the war on drugs? And that's why you don't wanna use the word?
I'm not so sure about it..
I would understand if you didn't like "weed and weeds" instead of herbs. Cuz the war is way bigger than only against drugs..
People were brainwashed and now use glyphosate to kill everything what they don't know in their garden. :)
The CIA used the term Marijuana in propaganda, such as Reefer Madness, to manipulate the public opinion. The mexican look alike plant named Marijuana has very little nutritional or medicinal value.
Although I do not think its racist, there is even opinions I have heard that claim the CIA also instigated racism towards mexicans in their propaganda.
It is quite concerning the lack of sophisticated information the CIA was using when it studied this plant, declaring it type 1, which was only reverse 1 week ago on a national level in the United States, in a bill that could still be overturned by congress.
at least something happens in ur country.. xD
Lol I want to move to Iceland to get away from this all but yeah you're right at least people acknowledge progress here.
