According to a new paper published in the scientific journal Addiction Biology, Cannabis consumption can cause cellular damage, significantly increasing the risk of cancerous tumours.
The study describes cannabis as a ‘genotoxic’ substance that can damage a cell’s genetic information, leading to DNA mutations, accelerated aging, and cancer.
The adverse effects of cannabis do not end there. This genotoxin can be transmitted via damaged egg and sperm to the user’s offspring. In a recent publication in Addiction Biology researchers from The University of Western Australia found a link between the established knowledge that cannabis use damages cellular energy production by inhibiting mitochondria. A new cancer research published in the Science shows that mitochondrial dysfunction drives chromosomal damage, resulting in increased rates of cancer, accelerated aging, and birth defects.
Dr. Stuart Reece and his colleague from The University of Western Australia were inspired by recent research published in Science that found out that dysfunction of mitochondria results in chromosomal damage, and raises the risk of cancer, and also accelerates aging and birth defects.
Though the studies published in the Science were not conducted in the context of cannabis use, it gave a new mechanistic insight that cannabis use causes both mitochondrial and genetic damage.

Bullshit. They're part of the sell marijuana and make money making the all the boys stoners group. What percentage do you know trade up consumer style to the drugs that kill?
the answer is zero that we couldnt pick out for being people that are going to get wasted on heavier shit before it ever happened.
EDIT - actually i cant say zero, because we cant pick people having accidents and being prescribed fucking opioids and getting ruined on that medically approved legal crack they hand out.

Interesting that they would link this to marijuana - but not the vaccines they’ve been pushing in Australia…
if youre talking about the covid jabs, they arent vaccines, and they arent just being pushed in australia.
oh and if you think 'traditional' ACTUAL vaccines (not going to go into the whole 'they cause autism etc' stuff here thats a whole other debate) wont be CHANGED into fake non vaccination mrna gene therapies that absolutely WILL AND DO kill and sterilise beyond any clinical doubt... well forget about giving your babies autism, youre gonna fucking give them about a 5-15 year lifespan of sheer agony.

Next thing ya know you slide a chair up to the fridge and start eating shit you never dreamed of. A frozen porkchop isn't too bad if you put some chocolate syrup on that sucker
The biggest argument I personally see around why marijuana use is bad for you is because in (((progressive states))) there are a plentiful amount of marijuana dispensaries. I smoked weed for more adult years than I haven’t. I always quit for a period of time each year and as marijuana got stronger and more commercialized, the way I felt while on a break was much, much worse. I haven’t smoked once, even taken a hit socially, in two years and have been at the point where I haven’t smoked more days than I have smoked since 2019. After reading these comments, the pro marijuana ones are copes of the “highest” order. I was a stoner. It was nigger-tier behavior. Niggers smell like weed. You have rituals around smoking that are junkie-like. You do get fucked up from weed. Weed numbs you to the outside world. Weed allows you to forget about everything that’s fucked up in your life. Maybe you need that. And that’s fine. But stop coping.
because one is a chemical and psychological addiction which causes agonising withdrawal and is socially acceptible while the other one is weed.
the worst part about quitting weed is not being high. the best part about quitting is knowing just how monged out you will get on that first half a joint at the end of the 'no weed' period youre doing. literally that simple. i know. because ive done it multiple times. did forklift driving for a year and a half up until last december, didnt touch the shit at all because drug tests. didnt bother me. went to the pub far far more tho.
if i get off the weed i love to go down the pub to have a couple of pints. dont need to get fucked up, i like a buzz, and its a small pub, always a good conversation. but its not particularly cheap and can get noisy. since starting smoking weed again last time around, i dont want to drink any more, and it cuts down my cigarette smoking to nothing but whats in the joint. with both, i can look at them both, go 'meh' and walk away. full on chemical shit like heroin? nah... your body literally changes its chemistry to make it work, then when you stop, eats the fuck out of itself again because it cant produce what the shit is doing, hence the screaming DTs, in that case its not the mind that needs the drug, its the body itself screaming that it now is reliant on the heroin.
deal with the thing that leads you to need to occupy yourself that distracts you from the thing you dont like thinking about when youre alone and bored, that leads you to occupy yourself with destructive or expensive shit. like getting bored and driving around. or building muscle mass in one wrist with excessive gooning. lol might have just sorted that issue thats another story. funny fucking shit too if i get to tell it one day.
But it's still possible to recover DNA from 3,000 year old mummies with evidence of opium, cocaine and cannabis...I CALL BULLSHIT. ✡️ ✡️ ✡️ ✡️ ✡️ ✡️ ✡️ ✡️ ✡️ ✡️ 🪓 🪓 🪓 beat them back with an axe 🪓
More specifically, both THC and CBD disrupt mitochondrial function and lead to increased oxidative stress; meaning this pathology can't be avoided by vaping or consuming edibles.
The effect is dose-dependent, so if you can't give it up, at least make it an occasional treat instead of a lifestyle.
oh boys, that sounds not good at all...so guys, you now know what you shouldn't do anymore. Anyway, you guys need to mend your ways, because you're making a mess of your life. Remember, you only have this body (brain included). Take care of it.

If THC is so dangerous, why did they bury the studies in the 60's and 70's?
(because the studies don't match the narrative!)
