Cannabis
Some of my posts and many of my dreams have to do with cannabis, as I am a cannabis consumer. Just a mere few years ago, I thought cannabis was a bad thing, and now I am ashamed for ever having thought such a thing. First of all, as a recreational device, cannabis is harmless and occasional use is good for you, no doubt about it. How is this possible? Well, all humans have endocannabinoid systems, which were integral in our evolution and regulate literally all other systems in our body; respiratory, circulatory, muscular-skeletal, digestive, endocrine, nervous, etc. Cannabis strengthens this system and thus everything else, so it truly is a good thing.
But that is not important. When the essential oils of cannabis are extracted and concentrated, a substance called hemp oil is formed. A man named Rick Simpson discovered modern hemp oil, and has used it to cure a multitude of diseases, including terminal cancer, diabetes, MS, arthritis, cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders, pain disorders, mental disorders, and even physical wounds and burns. This medicine is incredible, and it can truly revolutionize the medical system and world.
As if that weren’t enough, industrial hemp can save the planet by stopping deforestation (as hemp can be used to make paper and building materials), reversing global warming (by taking massive amounts of CO2 out of the atmosphere during growth), providing us with an alternative biofuel, creating a very nutritious staple food (hemp seeds have all the essential fatty acids and amino acids), and is the source material for literally thousands of products. Cannabis, the one plant that can do the most for this world, is one of the few plants that is illegal. What injustice this is, and it is injustice on a genocidal level.
