RE: Cannabis, Marijuana, Pot, Ganja, Weed, Dope, Does It Matter What You Call It?

in #palnet5 years ago (edited)

There was a time when people thought of the name "trump" in a favorable way. Now that name is a loaded word. In the future perception will likely change again. People seem to hold the Bush (jr&sr) name in high regard without respect for political affiliation. Even the loathsome Clinton name of the historic U.S. impeachment is now met with a flurry of applause when introduced to crowds of academia or hotel lobbies full Chinese businessmen.

Hopefully, we can fully de-stigmatize this healing herb, and even feel comfortable when the "M" word comes up around the good folks over at human resources or (unjust) law enforcement. Also the word Cannabis has been the word for Marijuana used by mislead nerds for ages.

Pointing out the racist roots of Marijuana, is more about pointing out the great Marihuana hoax and tax act of the 30's then adding even more stigma to that or any other word describing the Hebrew Kaneh Boshem. :)

here is a post I made recently on this subject
