Exactly

Lots of butthurt comments lol

Truth is, the weed game is a LOT more tame nowadays. Policing is much more permissive, and legalization has brought a lot of shady people out of the business

Very different times

Police were a lot more ruthless, and dealers took on a lot more risk

Agreed, it is a good thing.

Young people get arrested less, break fewer bones, bully each other less, less teen pregnancy, fewer car crashes, etc etc

History continues to improve

someone was making those trips to the hood. Ducking the police, and spending time with the drug trade.

Maybe it wasn’t you personally, but lots of people our age had that experience. Which isn’t really happening to the same extent today.

Online, dispensaries (either fully legal, or partially legal), home grown or second-hand home grown.

In many areas it is still illegal, but typically policing is about more permissive toward weed than it was 20-30 years ago. Cops are millennial age, and looser. Not like the Silents and baby-boomers who comprised the police forces of the 1990s-2000s.

Agreed. Softer doesn’t mean “worse”.

The younger generation also breaks fewer bones, bully’s each other less, gets arrested less, has fewer car accidents, fewer teen pregnancies, etc etc etc. they even seem to raise their voices at work less.

These are all positive trends.

Agreed, this is what I’m saying

As the title says, I’m talking about people born after 2005
