I did not intend to ask a question. I know for sure that a lot of potheads really want to push their recreational drug as a miracle do all drug, while ignoring all the negative effects.
The negative effects are well documented science. The positive effects are all vaporous claims from questionable studies.
Really goes to show the objectivity of HN, that I get downvoted for this.
You are getting downvoted for your dogmatic and set in your ways views. HN is a place for curiosity and your responses are not increasing curiosity they are closing it off.
It's worth noting that almost all medicinal drugs have negative effects. Certainly there are people who promote cannabis as a cure-all, and that's pretty ridiculous. But it's equally ridiculous to assume that it has no medicinal uses. You even mention one (pain relief) in your comment!
If you are operating from a place of fact and not opinion, you can also express that by sharing the evidence. Otherwise it's just empty claims on empty claims.
If you want to challenge an empty claim, do it right. Or, don't be a jerk. Either way.
