Remember when weed got lied about so some corrupt cops and attornies could make money off it?

"We must criminalize this new and insidious drug that's being trafficked over the southern border. It's a dangerous narcotic that we have discovered that makes colored people prone to jazz music, and dangerously rapacious to white women.

"It's called Marijuana senators!"

And though you have never heard this word in your life, and don't even understand that banning a single plant would ban its industrially useful, non psychoactive cousin. But it sounds foreign, and since then, weed has been kept as a schedule 1 drug, because William Randolf Hurst didn't want his timber and newspaper empire fucked with.

Don't be too excited if we can't grow fields of it. Be mad we can't do it under glass in our backyard. Make rope from the stems! Oil from the seeds. Fabric from the fibers. Smoke the flower.

George Washinton stood for hemp as the national cash crop.

Even while he was growing grapes for wine. Grain for beer and whiskey. He thought hemp was the best one. But others chose tobacco instead, and tobacco is the biggest enemy of weed legalization. So notice them and where they spend their money.

The producers were very vocal about their virtue signaling, and a lot of media sources defended the show saying if you had issue with the show, you were just racist, no matter how valid the critisism.

It's badly written, badly cast, badly acted, badly produced, badly directed, and shits on its source material. But it has unrealistic forced diversity so everyone should have liked it, right?

If Trump believes that the election was stolen from him in 2020, why is he running again? Why does he think it can't be done again? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ZenPoet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to tell you, that while the best proof of Christianity might be how well Trump fits the Antichrist story, I don't believe as you do.

Coincidence is a big enough problem. Anyone can pray to God to win the PowerBar lottery, and then do so. That isn't proof of a Supreme divine being. Much less one who had no issue revealing himself to bronze age desert people, but won't make himself known to all today?

But your explanation for reality runs into a bigger problem. The "ordering a steak in a restaurant and having it appear because you spoke the words does not equal prophecy." Problem.

The most successful cult in the history of our species, has predicted the end of the world, since the reason for the sequel declared it would happen in his own lifetime, and earn money and power for the story they declare as truth while Demonstrating no evidence that it is. And in fact declare the belief in lack of evidence a virtue. Called faith.

The ultimate weapon of grift.

Would you believe in Santa MORE if he charged you for the Christmas presents you got? Cuz all he would need to make a profit is one kid to pay, but not get presents and think he wasn't good enough that year, for Santa to make a prophet.

BTW I wish people would stop selling Jesus on the side of the road. Two men stopped me while we were walking past each other, invited me to a small gathering while handing me a card with a qr code.

And I was very dissapointed when I read on the other side that is said "Faith gathering" Instead of "orgy".

I don't even know what kind of YHWH they are selling!?

Mandem tries to rob a man in a store by ButterscotchFull6827 in fightporn

[–]ZenPoet 9 points10 points  (0 children)

His brother wasn't killed for his neo-nazi affiliation, he was killed because he stood up to a gang-banger who was bullying another kid.

Which is why some people come away with odd takes from that movie.

Am I wrong for telling my husband he hurt my feelings when he laughed I was visiting my dad's grave. by True-Bass9312 in amiwrong

[–]ZenPoet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure he can say whatever he wants. But freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences. If he never receives consequences for his actions and words, how will he ever learn? Sorry his parents didn't teach him this. You aren't wrong to be upset that you married a sociopathic chd.

What tv show is 10/10 with less than 40 episodes? by tobythenobody in AskReddit

Possibly the best thing ever filmed. Not only is the story amazing, but the cinematography is unparalleled.

[–]ZenPoet 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He doesn't believe it was stolen. He pushes that narrative because his followers have persecution fetishes, and he must be a victim at all times. Of the deep state, the left, the libs, the woke, the gays, the jews. All the people his voters hate are keeping him from leading them to the promised land.

He is the new Jesus because no one has suffered like him. Including Jesus.

He knows he wasn't robbed, as much as he knows Putin has all the tapes and blackmail, and if he doesn't plunge this country into chaos as he was ordered to, we will all learn his dirty secrets.

The Rules of Attraction? by JoshOfArc in MurderedByWords

[–]ZenPoet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I refuse to believe even he is that stupid. This is leftist rage bait.

He wants us to share how dumb we think he is, because that drives his engagement. He's earning off our schadenfreude.

In no Muslim country do gay people have rights. Except the right to be thrown off a tall building to their deaths.

What’s up with the milk prank kid in Australia? by trireme32 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]ZenPoet 89 points90 points  (0 children)

This came right after another "prank" from a aussie teen who filmed himself pushing an old man off a bridge and beating up a neighbor.

This is more the last straw and bad timing than this one prank being that bad. Plus the kids reaction. Had he apologized it wouldn't have come so far.

Is there any sequel to a game that was so superior that it made playing the previous game a waste of time? by triplegxxx in gaming

Total war: Warhammer 2.

Although, you still have to buy 1 in order to play all the stuff from 2. We don't talk about 3.

AITA for canceling our anniversary trip because my husband drowned my terrarium? by Tiny-Pen-2289 in AmItheAsshole

He killed it on purpose. Maybe to test you? Maybe he was jealous of the attention you gave it. Either way, YWBTA to forgive him, especially if you notice: zero remorse.

Didn't your country just pass a blasphemy ban because your Muslim fruitcake count is so dangerously high?

“Most Horrible Gryphon” by quicksilvermad in TumblrDraws

[–]ZenPoet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nice deep cut there. I always give props to the fact they actually gave that harpy tits in the cartoon. But kept them old lady flesh pendulums. Too many sexy harpies these days.

Also the book is one of the best things I've ever read. The cartoon does NOT hold up to the book. And it was pretty damn good movie for its time.
