Ignoring up problems won't fix them.

  But how does demonizing the legal weed industry by accusing it of being racists accomplish anything useful? They are clearly NOT being racist and just following the legal requirements for their industry. The fact that the ones being excluded are mainly black is not some conscious decision to exclude blacks but the result of the current laws and enforcement saddling them with felony drug convictions. The author's time would be better spent addressing the real problem of the disproportionate number of black males with drug felonies for simple possession.

    Accomplish anything useful? Buzzfeed is about _generating ad revenue through clicks_, not about being useful or educational.

  Blaming B for discrimination done by A only makes B less likely to care.
