You're a little young to be channeling Harry Anslinger
Because we are at the end of a hedonistic debt drowning fiat currency system
Research the term 'fourth turning'..... It happens to all empires
I just use it as a relaxing herbal product, I’m 29 with a good job and have many skills, but I see what you mean with most people.
When you need to drug your brain to escape it... There's something wrong
@@pazzodi3 would you consider a glass of whiskey a escape from the brain
@@tylerhicks9137 any substance used by the individual to alter their brain, then yes, it's for an escape from something
@@pazzodi3 okay, was honestly checking your consistency. If that’s your belief then I’m okay with that but you can’t tell me how I should feel about it. Because in that instance video games are a drug as well.
@@tylerhicks9137 I would disagree.. video games are not a substance going into your body.. because then you can name music, movies, art, etc that also.. Video games are lazy entertainment for boredom for majority, but for a few they can be a craft/skill in which to generate wealth.
I'm happy I got off the weed a few years back, I smoked way too much. More energy and less paranoia.
Cannabis makes me feel substantially more emotions, not less. But psychedelics have a different effect on everyone. Also, I think my sober mind will try to cope all on its own. I think most people are this way. Cannabis helps me to remove those security blankets and expose whatever harsh truths that may lie beneath.
The Persona versus The Self
@@cj548 Yes. Breaking down the ego.
It's not true wisdom tho. Its satan deceiving you with knowledge.
@Monfort Transport Satan has nothing to do with pot. I would argue that the anointing oil used in the temple was in fact Cannabis oil. Will you also tell us there is no medicinal value as well??
@@Bucephalus84 ok i told you, it's on you to heed or not. Any drug that causes the mind to alter is considered witchcraft or sorcery.
cannabis has always been a healing and positive element in my life.
This is 100% accurate. I noticed I was smoking weed when I didn't really have nothing going on in my life. Now that I have a job in the Healthcare field, I stopped smoking weed. It actually made me feel better.
I quit last May. Finally after 20+ years. Better late than never.
Yes, if you're circumstances aren't the best but you are independent, have a job, car, own place, sometimes it's just nice to have a little escape from the day to day doldrums every now and again, say once a week.
Using weed (or any substance) to cope with how hard it is worst thing can do.
Numbing the pain temporarily only makes it worse when you eventually have to face it.
Embrace the hurt and the pain - because it’s exactly that feeling that will drive you to stand out.
Powerful, sound wisdom.
Not all, however, yes I see many young men self medicating - their circumstances are subpar - often from no active strong fathering.
True. Been addicted to smoking from 23, soon 26 and it's gotten better over time. I would state though that I'm a highly functional addict.
Make self better think what you really want in life . We can change our circumstances just to decide to act, work on self . Change how we think and our life will change .
Associate with people who can learn something from them . Choose whom you associate with.
Wow. Great point...
I did not use it in decades, so maybe the current products are different. What I remember was how apathetic, paranoid, horny and hungry I became. It emptied my wallet and contributed to a poor diet and poor exercise habits. At some point I decided not to continue using a product that hurt me and which carried significant legal and career risks.
I can see from a public policy standpoint, legalization has advantages (tax revenue, neutralizing masses politically) but I do not see what’s in it for the individual. Using it is no longer even an anti-establishment gesture as it was in the 1960s-70s.
Do today’s weed products induce apathy, paranoia, sexual preoccupation, munchies and the rest? If so, what is the attraction?
Hopefully this comment does not come across as moralizing hyperbole. I am not anti-legalization, and I understand fentanyl is much more lethal. I simply do not understand why so many people choose to partake in marijuana? Everyone I ask says it does not make them happier once the immediate effect wears off. There are other ways of becoming disinhibited.
I am hoping someone who partakes can provide a better understanding - not that it will change my own decision. Thx.
The attraction is it feels good. It’s escapism. The bad is your getting the chemical reward without doing the work.
@@nsiebenmor I can understand escapism in men who smoke weed (the topic of this video), but what about the four downsides: apathy, paranoia, sexual preoccupation and The Munchies. Are these four descriptors incorrect? Maybe each can be viewed positively by an individual in the moment? It didn't work that way for me.
The most commonly used drug, alcohol, has its own set of problems: hangovers, apathy, violence, motor vehicle collisions, dependence, and a long list of health and legal problems - but those don't necessarily happen in most occasional or light alcohol users. A glass of champagne at a wedding is unlikely to make a person paranoid or ravenous, though it might influence sexual behavior (and impair performance). Escapism is a common thread.
Sounds like you had access to some very poor quality strains. Just like coffee, dogs and birds, weed has many strains with vastly different effects on the mind and the body.
I smoked one time for trial and quit forever. I felt nothing. My body is full of caffeine and weed doesnt do any effects. Instead i use cbd with california poppy. I suspect it increases resilience and emotions through better dreamstate sleep.
A lot of vets smoke a lot of weed. Life isn't always pleasant, be happy you don't have my memories.
Thank you for risking everything including permanent disability and death. I am grateful that I do not have the kind of memories that you have or that my late veteran daddy only told me about when he was under the influence and mistook me for Mama'. I hope you will keep giving your pain to your Heavenly Daddy, so that you can keep hope.
@@elinope4745 There are a lot of people who have had no association with the military who have memories that would make the ones had by most members of the military look tame in comparison. Plus, those who joined the military brought those experiences upon themselves, and there are plenty who were or are responsible for innocent people in other countries having memories as such. The United States military is of course most known for such acts.
@@elinope4745 You did not say anything worth falling under “duty and responsibility”, and you are not to be sympathized with for the memories that you caused yourself to have. You are definitely right about my father having failed both himself and me, but I definitely turned out to be an amazing person even though he was such a father. It is clear that your father failed himself and you but that you did not turn out well as I did.
@@elinope4745 If there were people who were made to join but did not want to do so, I definitely feel for them as long as they did not intentionally cause any harm to any innocent human.
I don't smoke weed and I'm pretty happy in life but hearing you say that people emotionally cope with weed kind of made me want weed. Weird.
In ages past we use to prepare young men for a harsh and most likely short life. Life has never been so easy as it is now. You can literally coast through your first 18 years with zero work and a 99% survival rate.
That is a problem. Life was never meant to be easy. It was meant to be hard. Every. Single. Day. Our brains are not wired for what we have created.
I feel like I’m more goofy when I’m sober; which was a reason why I wanted to smoke.
Very true. Unless you're tall and handsome, you have to make yourself. Universities and their degrees have been painted in a bad light.
Lol what does tall and handsome have to do with anything?
I am tall and handsome, I can assure you being tall and handsome does absolutely nothing for you as there are many tall and handsome guys in this world so what difference does it make?
THC is the only thing I have to look forward to when I get home from or clock out of work, before I go study for more work, so I can go to the gym and do physical work. Sooo…without getting dates, getting laid, and starting a family I literally have zero reason to go to work, to slave away, without THC I wouldn’t have a reason to work and get up in the morning let alone be grateful to be alive. So no without THC I’d be even more bitter and angry, it at least gave me motivation and something to live for. More than people just working for money.
I actually think young adult men have alot going for them. They have their health and lots of time on their hands. Also they are able to sustain a hard on without the help of Viagra and have premium sperm with very little DNA demage, etc. There is a decline in the quality of sperm as a man gets older. Therefore, increasing the risk of having offspring with genetic defects even if the women they mate with is young. The issues with lots of young men is fatherlessness. I can't stress enough how important it is for young men to have a male remodel. A loving older male who can guide them in the right direction.
Mainstream wants guys to do work and support Society. In reality do whatever you want to do guys. Play video games with your free time.. smoke weed if you want to.. by a segz doll if you want because they are the future.. choose to and have pride being single . It's not men's responsibility to Playhouse or God
The sperm is something feminists made up to feel better about losing their fertility with age.
@Chance Berryman Not true, ask any doctor or scientist. The quality of sperm declines with a man's age. This means he can still get a young woman pregnant, but the baby could have increased genetic birth defects.
its not men or women its people. people need good fathers not men. but i guess since females can use their pussy to get things in life then men have it slightly harder since women dont like men for their looks and more for there wallet. but if thats the case then why should the successful men even care about a woman thats only into him for the money?
@@ChanceBerryman yes. I'm in my mid-30s and my wife has not been born yet
People cope with food. I'm good on that cuhhhhh 💨
How can you not resent women after reaching success and power when they ignored you previously??
Same reason a previously morbidly obese woman can't resent you for only wanting her after she's lost the weight
No one is attracted to anyone for just their personality alone. That's just life.
@@speedonotincluded yeah, but what is that exactly?
@@speedonotincluded bs a women wouldn’t date a fat men neither
I guess in the same way you don't resent a snake or dangerous animal. Just never take their feelings seriously or invest in women.
It's frustrating to be a young man in our society. You are at the peak of your physical health and capacity, but you have very little experience and resources. You can't make very much money yet and most women want nothing to do with you. Might as well smoke weed to help you get through your crappy job until you accommodate enough experience for a better position.
High thoughts: This guy looks kinda like old Ron Weasley
I love weed. And there is nothing I can do about it lol
Many people are still alive because i smoke...
Poor woman don't want poor men, because they're poor...🤷🏿♂️
Beavis and Butt-head defined.
"you can't do nothing about it because you dont want to be accountable and blame everybody else for it....or....smoke weed.
That is a vague generalization
Wrong on that one.
Both sexes. Not just men. This isn’t an exclusive to men problem. I seen both sexes substance abuse.
I used it and God didn't like it. I don't think Jesus is smoking a stogie in heaven.
But women use head meds in massive numbers
Drugs are for losers.
Atheist AKA a Satanist.
lol bs
depends on the person just blaming weed is the cope its just a lazy way of thinking because everyone has some kind of vice just because it doesn't work for you doesn't mean it has the same effect on others I vape am 28 and am in the top .01% of folks based on my age and assets wen I qwit weed people said my hard drive spins a bit fast and should probably try weed and they were correct because to me thc is like caffeine it just increases productivity
