I mean, it's the same thing the IMF and World Bank did to fuck over a lot of poorer countries. While not an invasion, it is still pretty destructive.

Smells like bullshit to me

Hell yeah. Correlation studies are useless guys! I know very much science.

Hey thank you! I thought Lemmy could never have the full Reddit experience, but there's completely lazy and misinformed comments here too.

Try reading the article next time.

No, they don't "fail basic science". They point out that there is a correlation and we need better studies, but the mere existence of the correlation is worrying, especially considering a lot of recent studies are confirming the link between cannabis and teen psychosis. A lot of the early studies on the harm of cigarettes started similarly. Correlation between lung cancer and smoking tobacco doesn't imply causation, but it's one hell of an alarm bell.

The author of the article themselves doesn't say cannabis is a gateway drug and even recognizes that asking people to just not use it isn't realistic.

Props to you for choosing being yourself even though it's hard!

My coming out was pretty messy too. I can only tell you that it gets better. You already have a good social safety net from what I can understand on your post, but I would recommend too that if you don't have already, start making new IRL trans friends. They are sure to help you navigate this moment.

As a Latin American, the US is the very last county I want to visit on the entire continent. Literally the only thing that I kind of want to see there is the Lego store in NYC.

You could try bringing some high alcohol bottle with you and use it as treatment.

If you let your opponent define the very words you use, you already lost

Same here. I guess it's a blessing.

I'm not coming back to Reddit through their app.

They could call for civil disobedience. They could maybe act like there is an attempt at a fascist takeover of government instead of prioritizing being nice and polite.

There are some democrat politicians that are sort of begging to take things seriously, such as AOC. But if the party itself doesn't get its shit together, they'll be remembered in history like the Weimar Republic.

Dems: literally do nothing except not make things even worse

Liberals: "they finally show some spine!"
