"I'm going to help black people sell weed because they love doing that!" - Totally not racist Bernie Sanders

Pedeville 15 points ago +28 / -13

Who wouldnt love to sell weed legally tho?

Edit: cant answer all the people, but I cant wait for it to be legal so I can grow it and help people. Weed has really helped me out a lot, and I want it to do that for others as well.

People who aren't into weed and have other more reasonable business ideas.

I smoke pot and was a manager at a grow for 5 years but I find weed culture & people who assume weed consumption as an identity so damn cringey.

Smoked pot for a few years, I Quit for work and feel much better actually. I was part of the weed culture meme. So cringey looking back on it

Can't smoke pot. The damn thing gives me panic attacks.

Razeontherock 2 points ago +2 / -0

If you talked with someone educated on the subject they could tell you which strains would avoid that problem, which would give you whatever you're looking for, and to start with extremely small doses. If smoking, one hit is about 30 of what we used to get; stuff these days is that strong!

Tiny little hit, wait an hour. No joints! Some type of bowl you can snuff out.

Or, leave the stuff alone ... I'm better off with just CBD for pain now and then.

Ever try vaping budder? I find I don't get anxiety from it (used to have panic attacks if someone asked me if I wanted to smoke a joint) and I'm relaxed enough to talk to strangers in public.

BuffaloReaper94 2 points ago +2 / -0

Thank you! It's the culture that turns me off. With increased legalization, do you think that culture will dissipate? Won't the "I'm edgy, cool, and anti-establishment" signalling go away once it's no longer edgy and illegal?

3
Pedeville 3 points ago +3 / -0

I think it will. I know a lot of people who smoke and they are just regular people who likes to relax and would like to not feel like a criminal about it.

I saw a story about a grower who went legal, and lost over 90% to taxation, only to be under more demand, higher restrictions. American communists have wet dreams about implementing Canada's weed monopolization nation wide.

Tough to say. Plenty of people grow their own here but they also enjoy the convenience of buying from the dispensaries. I don't know anyone here that smokes that doesn't buy from the dispensaries.

Because it is still illegal in many states to grow it yourself. It has to be sold through a crony capitalist and taxed by the state to be legal.

can't argue with that point. if there's a demand, people will supply it.

and we are talking about stoners, I'm sure there's plenty of them that don't feel like putting in the effort to grow quality stuff when they can just go down the street and buy it.

I don't partake but my wife does. On a recent trip to Vegas it was nice to be able to purchase some for her as asking strangers for weed in a large city is a great way to lose money, get laced weed, get arrested, get mugged.

Create a Reddit account, make a few posts about cats or something, then post in BernieforPresident about how the Democrat elites are screwing Bernie again. They are already getting wound up and they are going to go batshit crazy at the contested convention.

Sadly, a lot of Bernie Bros are what would bring this country into Socialism. While the enemy of our enemy can be our friend, we must remember that this is a lot like the Allies joining forces with the Soviets to defeat Germany in WWII.

Thank god more and more black Americans are realizing that the white leftists consider them political property

3
Titus70 3 points ago +6 / -3

Are they?

I know a small handful of people like Candace Owens are very popular on social media, but I feel like a lot of her fans are white.

When it comes to voting there is zero evidence that blacks are turning republican.

In the Louisiana gubernatorial election 4 months ago more than 90% of African Americans voted democrat. And Louisiana is the second blackest state in the nation.

We’ll just have to find out in November, since we all know that polls are wildly inaccurate these days.

How about Kanye? What percentage of his fans are white? He’s had way more effect than Candace.

OpTendieDrop 1 point ago +2 / -1

The blexit bullshit is just our sides muh Russia. There is no actual evidence, but it feels so damn good to just believe that people do anyway.

Candace Owens is an outlier, and Kanye did it for attention. Same as the “George Bush doesn’t care about black people” line, and the Taylor Swift feud. The guy is just a self promoter, and he knew that nothing gets entertainment industry NPCs aggroed like a MAGA hat.

IS Flav based?

WellDoneWithKetchup 2 points ago +2 / -0

Idk if he's based or just didn't wanna alienate any fans by going political, which is smart. Of course now Chuck D. is calling him stupid & all kinds of other shit because Flav didn't support who he wanted him to. In the article I had read, Chuck was also bitching about Flav not supporting sankofa, which is some social justice bullshit organization. So he very well might be based. At the very least I know Chuck D. is an intolerant cunt.

Bernie: So yeah, under Socialism, we take all of your gold chains away, and instead, of cheeseburgers and steaks, you’ll be eating porridge for most of your meals…which we’ll cut down to once a day, twice on Holidays. It’s all for the good of the State, but you’ll lose all that weight, so really it’s a win/win for everybody.

This old man won't live to see the results of his "experiment" as it comes to its logical fruition.

He has the luxury of preaching Socialism within the comforts of a Free Market Country. In reality, the Communists will kill him for being weak and install their true Strong Man Dear Leader.

If you can just grab his microphone and all he can do is pout, you can most definitely wrestle power from his hands. Just ask Hillary.
