Understand the problem isnt left vs right. Its the entire system of so-called "representatives" who only represent what will line their pockets. For example, 93/100 senators are being paid by AIPAC, love or hate isreal the fact is 93/100 of our so-called representatives are taking money from a foreign government. That in itself should be eye opening enough and prove the corruption is much larger than the masses believe. Don't just trust me but do your own research, its in our faces but they believe we're all too stupid and distracted with politics to see it. Until we ban lobbying we have zero hope of true representation ever coming back to this country.
As a side note, yes im aware that AIPAC is funded by wealthy US donors. However if you start looking into these donors it becomes clear where they have obtained their wealth... It's just a way around registering with FARA.
And fuck Democrats and Progressives for not codifying when they had the opportunity and especially fuck all the Democrats and Progressives that voted on the bill to pass.
dems voted for it too and did nothing at all to try and stop it because pssssst spoiler alert they are pieces of shit too and also dont care about anything but money
The two party system is an illusion and any + all political social groups that spawn from it are cancers to the world as well.
If you’ve fallen for “it’s the X’s fault” then you’re already a day late and a dollar short for even stepping onto the board and playing their little game.
In legal states there will still be changes. Currently you can get d8 at a smoke shop without having your name and information logged. After the ban you will only be able to get it from dispensaries(if they even decide to sell it for some reason) and your id will be scanned and transaction logged.
The reduction of availability is bad enough, but the recording of transactions is a bit worrisome to me. Sure the transaction log may not matter to most, but with the current fascist government that may be used against us later.
Its very different. Most of the time I dont get asked for my ID, and when I do they dont always scan it. With dispensaries they check your ID, copy your ID, and keep record of every person and transaction.
I mean… delta 8 is completely unregulated, you don’t know what yours actually putting in your bodies. They can say “lab tested”, but you don’t know if the results they give you are legit. There could be any sort of harmful chemicals in them. I don’t get how people are surprised they’re doing something about it?
They just want to feed the prison industrial complex some more inmates to profit off of. They don’t give a shit about delta 8. They only care about having control
Complete ban. How else could the for profit prison and alcohol industries survive?
Fuck republicans and conservatives.

Republican voted for the loop to be closed
There's actually quite a few Democrats on the list who voted yay. I didn't care to count, but at a glance it was pretty even.
No it wasn’t, only 6/45 democrats plus 2 independents caved on the shutdown. All 53 republicans voted for it.
Don't blind them with facts now.
Ignorant and naive.

This ik
Yeah, i may feel some kind of way politically, but all those motherfuckers are getting paid so I want them all to get what the deserve.

Aah yes, it’s definitely not the fault of the party that consistently stands in the way of legalization. Such an enlightened and galaxy brained take.
If the state has marijuana legalized it will not be affected (although nothing is safe, it seems), the ban is hemp products.

I already have to scan my driver's license when I buy alcohol, would this be any different really?

Gotcha, bleh
Yeah, its pretty shitty. The best thing we can do is grow our own if we are in a state that allows it, but even that has its downsides.

I don't live there but am pretty sure you will be screwed, yes. I am in NC and we only have loophole products, no marijuana. I think you are the same.
Damn bruh and is it just more regulation? Or like all delta even the .03%
All of it.
Depends on your version of affected. I guess you like an oligarch controlled market.
Sell whatever stock you may have in CBD now cause those companies are gonna crash hard starting in about 6 months as the date draws near

You don't actually think politicians give a shit about things like that right?
