- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).

nope. It should be regulated by each state. The federal government should just back off.
Or, we could stop pretending that a plant is harmful to society instead of using it as an excuse to put brown people in prison.
Not seeing the connection here. In my country we consider it's harmful even though we have extremely few brown people
Your country is just as stupid as the US, then.
So if we had more brown people it would be different??
I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion, but no.
The word "then" maybe
Well, you came to the wrong conclusion. Your country is dumb for making a plant illegal. Nothing to do with brown people.
