hey, im an american, so let me know if its different for you guys but i dont get how literal METH (desoxyn) is a schedule 2 drug (allowed if you have a prescription) while weed and psychedelics are schedule 1 (not allowed at all). no matter how much the government wants to preach about caution and safety, the controlled substances act is NOT about the health of the people. its about what drugs make money and what drugs the people will accept. its about keeping american citizens complacent in 2 ways:
1. drugging the ones with dissenting opinions/anyone with creativity/anyone DIFFERENT in any way (for example, notice how every fucking overactive child is diagnosed with adhd? my dad didnt even have anxiety, he was just a barhead, he just lied about some stuff and got a script. its absurdly easy to get medicated because anyone who isnt perfectly neurotypical (very few people are) just gets a pill bottle thrown at them. i will admit, its much harder to get meds for certain conditions, but that usually just ends up hurting the people who ACTUALLY HAVE those conditions. also the two can overlap, like with adhd and the adderall shortage. i know so many people who just got hit with an adhd diagnosis that they dont even agree with and they got put on meds they dont even like, but people who actually have adhd are unable to get the meds they need)
2. not promoting anything that may cause social unrest (since america has trained the people to be afraid of certain drugs, such as mdma, they need to be separate from the "good" drugs like adderall (literally just amph under another name, why are we trained to be afraid of one and love the other) and apparently meth. even though mdma shows promising results in treating autism, the government cant just backtrack and say "oh actually this is good and well let you do this" because the people will say "b-b-but the druggies!11!!1!! we cant have that in our good clean america." also the government cant just go change its opinion or else theyll look stupid and then people will trust them less. they have to be stagnant and unchanging, some kind of godlike figure)
the only reason the government (nationwide but mainly in certain states) is becoming more lenient about weed is because thats what people WANT. the government just wants to look good. its about keeping people obedient. its not about our safety or wellbeing. sorry if any of this doesnt make sense, i just typed it out on the spot because i was thinking about it lol
