The FDA can “emergency approve” vaccines but have taken more than 50-years to admit that cannabis has medical
properties – Cannabis Users and Mandates
If there’s one thing you can say about the avid cannabis smoker is that they do love their conspiracies. Now – let me get
something straight about conspiracies…they do happen.
There’s this idea that if you’re a “conspiracy theorist”, you’re some kind of whack job, but I think it was Eric Weinstein who
said it best on Lex Fridman’s podcast (https://youtu.be/A0Lf8eP41vs?t=415),
“No, I don’t believe you…I don’t believe that after COINTELPRO (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COINTELPRO), Operation
Paperclip (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Paperclip), Operation Mockingbird
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird), uh…I don’t even know if I should bring up REX84
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rex_84). To NOT believe in conspiracies is an idiocy.” – Eric Weinstein
However, with all conspiracies – some are more difficult to prove and others might simply be works of fiction or counter-
propaganda.
After all, “The Russians are out to get ya!”
Cannabis users who know something about the origins of cannabis prohibition also know of the great Anslinger-Hearst-
DuPont conspiracy (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7173675/) to tarnish the good name of cannabis. This
was reported recently in a 2020 study on the effect of Racism on Cannabis Research,
“Even putting economic interests aside, Hearst and Mellon were at the center of a vicious anticannabis campaign based on
racism, sensationalism, and social control of racial minorities. Racism and sensationalism are strong allegations, but consider
the roles of Hearst, Mellon, and Harry Anslinger.”
And then again later commenting on the 1971 War on Drugs Conspiracy where Nixon placed cannabis on the CSA
because he wanted to legally be able to harass anti-war protestors and African Americans under the guise of drugs;

https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/cannaconspiracy-the-fdas-reluctance-to-approve-medical-cannabis-vs.-approving-messenger-rna-vac 5/15
“John Erlichman, a senior advisor to Nixon, was later quoted as saying “We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against
the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then
criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their
meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”
The cannabis rabbit hole is deep and if you ever decide to truly uncover the truth behind the illegality of weed – you too
will be open to the idea that “conspiracies exist!”
Which brings us to a Reddit Post I stumbled upon while doing some research on weed. The title read
(https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/pxo8ra/so_the_fda_can_approve_the_vaccine_but_not/);
“So the FDA Can Approve the Vaccine and not Cannabis”
Fuck them!
It seemed that more than a thousand people agreed and soon the conversation started.
Booyatribe funk said, “The FDA have managed to lose whatever credibility they may have. It’s like going to IGN for an
honest gaming review.”
However, it’s important to understand that the FDA is simply one component and that the vaccine approval process is
completely different that working with schedule I drugs.
This isn’t to say the FDA isn’t a joke.
They have notoriously “approved” many drugs (https://www.mdlinx.com/article/10-dangerous-drugs-recalled-by-the-
fda/lfc-4008), which that were later recalled for numerous negative health outcomes. And let’s not forget where most of
their money comes from – Big Pharma! (https://today.uconn.edu/2021/05/why-is-the-fda-funded-in-part-by-the-
companies-it-regulates-2/) Yet for some reason people still continue to put their trust in an organization that “may” have
good intentions, but in most likeliness is catering to the whims of big pharma.

After all, the pharmaceutical industry spent $3.48 billion dollars on lobbying in 2020
(https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/big-pharma-lobbying-netted-big-contracts/). Some interesting facts to note
include;
There were 1,502 pharmaceutical lobbyists in 2020, 63.58% of whom were former government employees.
The Wellcome Trust (https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/foundations-investments-influence-covid-
research/) is a top funder of health research globally and has been a major player in the COVID-19 pandemic, even
though it’s invested heavily in companies making COVID-19 treatments.
So of course, when you have billions of dollars invested in Vaccine Revenue – you can ask your good ol pals at the FDA to
approve all kinds of drugs. However, while the cannabis industry has seen a rise in lobbying activities it paled in
comparison to that of Pharma. The cannabis industry a few million dollars and may have had some endorsement from
Big Tech – but it still doesn’t make a dent in the purchasing power of Big Pharma.
The main question remains, “Is this a conspiracy to take away your rights or is it to make an absurd amount of money?”
Some of the cannabis users are leaning more towards the idea of “taking away your rights” as was expressed by DKinives;
“They are not just attacking rights though. They are attacking our jobs and livelihoods. Soon it will be highly difficult to provide
for your family if you are unvaccinated in a world where workers are already short staffed. And they think its legal, logically, and
perfectly okay. I fear for our country's future, just like I did when Trump was in office... The joys of being a moderate. The
country is going to hell and you can't do shit about it.”
However, others were convinced that the reason why it’s still not “approved” is because Pharma and big corporations
need to get their hands on it first;
Princetacotuesday said this;
I've read about this. Basically a few scientists are trying to document different weed genomes and putting them in public
domain so big business can't patent them and own 100% rights to them. It's a smart way to fight them and definitely playing a
role in why it isn't legal everywhere yet.

IDK why these asshole companies don't just give up already and just start growing w/e and selling it. Nope, they gotta own all
rights to it 100% like lawsuits against other people/companies is apart of their money making plan.
Sticky Bottom Line
Money or power – these are the two root causes of all great conspiracies. In a day and age where the mere mention of
the word Conspiracy can make you feel ostracized and belittled – the truth of the matter is that “Private Interests” do
meet in “private meetings” and make “private deals”. When you have an industry paying Billions of dollars to the
government for legal favors – to ignore the possibility of conspiracy is actually detrimental to your wellbeing.

If Regulators are Concerned about Public Health - Fast Track All Cannabis Research Now
While their research won’t be unofficial, it doesn’t make it less sound. Some of the things we have discovered over the past few years on cannabis came from these
“unofficial sources” which only echoes what we have known for centuries – Cannabis is Medicine…it should never have been made illegal in the first place.

(https://cannabis.net/blog/medical/5-great-benefits-of-cbd-oil-and-extracts-for-your-body)
Scientists have discovered more recently that CBD, among other components of cannabis, can relieve pain. The body of a human has a particular system known as
endocannabinoid (ECS), which regulates different functions, including sleep, pain, appetite, and immune system response.
