I think about that issue a lot. Marijuana is a really safe drug but once you start fucking with it it’s honestly a different animal, and that complicates things. People who say ‘weed is generally good and safe’ are right, but that is THE PLANT- concentrates and potent hybrids aren’t the same.
Shit is generally fine the way it started and when people start fucking with it to make it stronger, more intense, more this that and the other, then they’ve ruined it. It’s like how ‘fruit is healthy’ is true but a lot of our fruit these days has been so intensely bred for sweetness and size that it has so much more sugar and so many fewer nutrients than it originally did.
I’m hugely for ‘if it ain’t broke don’t fix it’ bc fiddling with natural shit always creates a permutation that is out of balance with the original configuration. It seems better at first then D’OH WOOPS looks like nature made it that way for a reason!
