I think the word you're looking for is cannabinoids. You don't call opiates "morphine and related compounds".

- protomyth 10y agoTrue, but morphine and opiates in a known bad along with cannabinoids not sounding much better. Acronyms and "compounds" don't set off the hate generally.
- mistercow 10y agoI don't see a strong argument that "THC" is any better. Everyone knows what THC is.
- protomyth 10y agoYou'd be surprised (very surprised - its almost a dihydrogen monoxide thing in reverse), and truly acronyms get more respect.
- reitanqild 10y agoDepends on your definition of everyone. I for one trigger significantly less on THC. It can also be argued that THC sounds more like a synthesised or refined version consisting of the active ingredients.
