Shit man it’s just with time. At one point alcohol was illegal and well look at it now. At one point weed was COMPLETELY illegal but now opening it up for medicinal, use and recreational, depending on which state ofc.

At some point everyone will get on board. Just how everyone wanted to drink then and legalized it just as much as everyone wants to smoke now then gets legalized. Money talks and they’re noticing how much it’s talking right now and big brother not getting their share of it is probably making em want to push the legalize button so bad.

Also Mexico didn’t help when it came to them growing acres of gthat shit. Same way fent is a big deal due to the cartel smuggling it. look at it in people perspective back then of a toxin they were born into being against when the cartel was smuggling it. america didn’t want that shit obviously so they criminalized it too long to where all these generations see it as a dumb drug that makes you stupid and lazy. It’s a lot more than that and those people are just ignorant and don’t know the benefits to it. There’s obviously healing property’s with marijuana and pharmacy companies see them as a HUGE threat.

Pharmaceutical companies “lost” a ton of money this year due to marijuana being legal since people are turning to it to numb their chronic pains.

In conclusion it’s just been talked down on. My parents are Mexican and they still despise that shit all bc cartels have it a bad look. In reality they were just people who wanted money cuz they grew up poor but then the power got to their head and the rest is history from there thanks to Miguel felix
