  >most people like the recreational aspects of it. Deal with it. I really wish people could deal with that. It's not a miracle cure, it's just a drug and it feels good - like getting a buzz on wine. Yet people act like it's 1935 and there's some huge "Reefer Madness" thing going on where people are acting like smoking a joint is going to cause a Communist Revolution and the Evil Right Wingers are freaking out because some poor White Liberal smoked a joint. In what reality are people living in? Smoking weed - occasionally - is mainstream. True - you aren't supposed to smoke it in public, just like you aren't supposed to go Harvey Weinstein and masturbate into a potted plant in front of some unwilling woman. In what social reality is the fact someone likes to smoke pot occasionally somehow really controversial? I guess since I don't live in Bumfuck, Alabama and most of my social circle are not hard core fundamentalist Christians I am completely unaware of how oppressed upper middle class yuppie computer programmers with a weed fetish are so oppressed in society. Must be my white privilege talking.
