DTube - Halifax Councillar Claims Saying "Marijuana" Is Racist

in dtube •  7 years ago 


A Halifax councillor says he will no longer use the term "marijuana" because it is racist. The word "Cannabis" is used by us at PFT over "marijuana" as well but it's certainly not because it's racist or that we need to be progressive! In this video Dan Dicks of Press For Truth speaks with Chad Jackett of Liberty Farms about the reasons why we have these two terms in the first place and why "racism" is not to blame but it is in fact the state itself.

Cannabis is very beneficial. But in the state of Indonesia contrary to state law. Though this plant can grow fertile here, do not need special care. Thanks for sharing @pressfortruth

its 100% true. Cannabis was falsely deemed to be called marijuana, a mexican look alike plant, by the CIA and insiders in the government of the United States in the 1940s. These parties had interest in the paper pulp Mill industry that wanted to quash the competition from hemp paper fiber which was cheaper to produce. This was also used in conjunction with the War on Drugs to assimilate a core belief that Mexican drug cartels selling marijuana were affecting american economies and disturbing the peace. This view was further established in the movie Reefer Madness which was actually not meant to be a funny movie but a harmful and propaganda Base movie too defame cannabis and flag it as marijuana.
