Yo, listen up, fam! We gotta chop it up ’bout this whole Kamala Harris situation and her stance on weed. Folks be all hype ’cause she say she down with legalizin’ it, but we needa take a step back and really think about what that means. Ain’t no way we can just roll with her just ’cause she talkin’ the talk about cannabis. Let’s break it down, and I’ma keep it real with you.
Politicians Be Playin’ Games
First off, let’s be real – politicians be out here playin’ games like it’s a sport. They’ll say whatever they gotta say to get your vote. Kamala Harris? Yeah, she’s got that weed talk goin’ on, but don’t let that blind you. Just ’cause she’s throwin’ around words like “legalize” and “reform” don’t mean she’s really about that life. Remember, she used to be the one lockin’ folks up for the same thing she now tryna put on a pedestal.
Kamala’s Flip-Flop History
Now, let’s roll back the clock a bit. Back when Kamala was Attorney General of California, she was throwin’ people in jail for marijuana-related charges like it was nothin’. Almost 2,000 people! That’s a whole lotta lives bein’ messed with. Fast forward to 2020, and suddenly she’s all about that cannabis reform. Like, what changed? The winds of public opinion blew her way, and now she tryna act like she always been chill with weed. Nah, fam, that ain’t how it works.
2020 Primaries and the VP Slot
Then we had the 2020 primaries where she started off strong but fizzled out quicker than a cheap blunt. Dropped out before Iowa, lookin’ like a whole snack that got burnt in the oven. But then, outta nowhere, she gets tapped for the VP spot with Joe Biden, who got a history of being tough on drugs too. Now you got two people who used to be on the “lock ‘em up” train suddenly tryin’ to hop on the “let’s free ‘em” bandwagon. I ain’t sayin’ they can’t change, but c’mon now, let’s not act like it’s all good.
Promises vs. Reality
And now, here we are in 2023, and what do we got? A big ol’ pile of promises about cannabis reform, but where’s the action? They talkin’ ’bout rescheduling cannabis to Schedule III, but that just feels like a play for Big Pharma. We ain’t askin’ for a lil’ reschedule; we want full-blown legalization! Don’t be givin’ us the same old song and dance when we tryna see real change.
The Bigger Picture
So, here’s the deal, y’all. Voting based on Kamala’s weed stance alone is like pickin’ a car just ‘cause it’s pretty. You gotta look at the whole package! Don’t forget, she’s not just a one-trick pony. You gettin’ all her policies, her party’s agenda, and that whole system that’s been lettin’ us down for years. Both sides, Dems and Repubs, be playin’ the same game at the end of the day. War, pharma, banks – they all in cahoots.
Time to Think Local
If you really want change, you gotta start local. Forget about the big names in DC. The real action happens at city hall and in your community. Wanna see cannabis reform? Get involved with your local government. It’s all about the grassroots, baby! The folks in Washington ain’t feelin’ your struggle. They too busy sippin’ champagne and makin’ deals with lobbyists.
Critical Thinking Matters
So, let’s wrap this up. Don’t just roll with a candidate ‘cause they sound good on a specific issue. Look at their actions, their history, and the bigger picture. Use your brain, fam! Question everything. Your vote is your voice – don’t give it away for a catchy slogan or a promise that might not mean a thing once they’re in office.
Final Thoughts
At the end of the day, it’s all about what kinda society we wanna build. So next time you in that booth, don’t just focus on the cherry on top. Look at the whole cake and how it’s gonna taste for all of us. We deserve better, and our future depends on it!
