The "ridiculous levels of strength" is a good thing. It means you can consume far less to get the same result.
If pot is five times stronger than it used to be, then you only use a fifth as much. That's not "weaponizing". Nobody I know sits around smoking joint after joint any more, you just have a little bit and you're done.
Actually, no one I know smokes any more. It's all vaporizers and edibles now.
Modern cannabis is much healthier than the stuff we had in the '60s.
- asveikau 8y agoI haven't looked very deeply and am not an expert, but I do believe there is research suggesting that higher concentrations of THC and less cannabidiol is associated with more psychotic symptoms. Second google hit: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2801827/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2801827/ - says this on page 9. The scenario I have in mind is someone who has latent or "below the surface" susceptibility to schizophrenia or bipolar without visible symptoms and THC triggers their first episode. Most people who use it won't see this. Some will and it will come to them without warning. Denial that this is a possibility however unlikely is not great.
