The article itself says cannabis effects are ‘not completely understood’ and that treatments need ‘careful selection of active compounds,’ which shows THC’s anti-inflammatory action is limited and not reliable on its own. LMAO
Dude, I voted pro-legalization. Just stop acting like it's anything more than people like to get high. And that's fine, but stop acting like it's some medical magic. lol
I literally just linked the first google result. Not the only research about it.
Why does it being limited mean anything? Is limited the same as non existent now, or...?
Edit: You can pick and choose quotes, but this is directly from the abstract:
I honestly could not give less of a shit about your position on legalization. But to pretend that established medical uses for cannabis are just fake is ignorant as fuck.
There is no valid medical use for cannabis. People just like to get high. Which is fine, but just admit it.
Normally I wouldn't wish a chronic illness like mine on just about anybody. In your case I think it would be educational.
I certainly hope you get better. Doesn't mean I have to believe in weed tho. If you do, and you feel it helps, then good for you! I don't agree with banning it.
You don't get better from a chronic illness.
One day, maybe you will learn. Then, I would like to hear about what you believe.
Well, I hope ya get better, anyway.
Oh well then case closed I guess. Who needs actual science and peer review, this guy on Lemmy said so.
Hope you never have to deal with Crohn's disease.
K, thanks! Hope ya get better.
