nonpartisan as a stoner

[Nothing Has Changed]

If you're like me, then you've been stereotyped. Here's what you are: a loser, a person with little or no hobbies (as if cultivation isn't on par with fixing up the old chevy or keeping up with the college preference of the local high school football prodigy), or simply a loser with little or no hobbies. That's fine and all. For me, I prefered widow when it was still indica dominant (still great even if it isn't from GH). I knew/know everyone was/is wasting their time on purples; the high is absolute shit. This politics thread was meant to divide us, but we're all the same. We're still teenagers who smoked our first joint of some horrible shit we bummed off of some friend's shady friend. We didn't care for him much, but he introduced us to mary jane. Essentially, we're the same as we were back then. It's funny to see how we've all changed. We've developed into liberals, for the most part, and a very select few of us have grown attached to an individualist idealogy that the conservatives have claimed. Yet, most everyone you'll meet will detest us. They don't differentiate between you and the local pusher. We like to think of ourselves as connousiers though. We'll be quick to tell you soil tastes better than hydro, or we'll bicker over our preferences of couch-lock or heady highs; in the end, we're still the same. We adore marijuana and if we were to fight, it'd definetely be over her; don't compare us to other users though. At what point, did we pick up Friedman/Hayek or Zinn/Chomsky and become at odds with each other? If we'd like to transport our ladies and be able to smoke our steamrollers in peace, it seems that we should favor cooperation. It may just be me, but I could care less how Guiliani favors supply-side economics that he doesn't comprehend and so forth. I want potency, and I thank god for the white strains (even with their low yields). Let's stop bickering and truly make America the central figure in the advancement of marijuana.

that's all fine and dandy, but there is a bit more to life than a well rolled joint passed between friends. politics and religion are the big games, all of man's hopes and fears played out in a worldwide public arena. is it any wonder that folks get a little worked up about them? as with any game, people are going to take sides and attempt to inflate the worth of their favorite team. in all the hub-bub we sometimes forget that we are not the players in these games, merely fans in the cheap seats hoping to cheer our team on to victory.

Well, i forget who said it, but i remember the quote: "a nation of lambs will beget wolves as leaders."

all citizens of every country should IMO be interested/aware of what the politcal game is where they live. maybe even outside their borders. why? because those who politic for a living become so easily enticed into criminal actions with us, the citizens, as their fodder.

we need to keep an eye on the scene to spot incoming disasters. plus, with our constitution we even have some powers to change laws for the betterment of all. take advantage of your rights! they might not be around for long...

Well, I'm probably the exception as the first joint I smoked was from my brother and it was Cambodian Red, some extremely wonderful stuff. Man I've been chasing that high ever since. He gave me a whole OZ that he had smuggled back from Nam, whoa, three tokes and you were in la-la land, a very beautiful high.
