It's natural therefore it has no negative effects.
It's also been bred to be waaay stronger over the last couple decades. I see a fair amount of weed-induced psychosis rolling through inpatient, or at the very least weed-exacerbated psychosis. Way worse than the psychosis is the hyper-emesis syndrome. One of the characteristic symptoms is "scromiting" (Scream-Vomiting).
It's better for you than alcohol. That's not a high bar. A light mauling from a black bear is also better for you than alcohol. It's waaay better for you than cigarettes but also most brain cancer starts out as lung cancer and I'll let you follow the rest of that on your own. Most of my substance abuse patients who are hooked on shit like fentanyl and meth also tell me that nicotine is the hardest drug to quit.
Weed's not the worst. It's still drugs though.
hyperbole when discussing medical shit does no good for anyone, and if you're confident in this opinion maybe ask a doctor or get mauled by a bear yourself.
Dude my childhood cat fought a black bear and won. There's videos on YouTube of cats chasing them up trees. I would rather fight a black bear than a domestic goose or raccoon and especially more than a deer. "Bear" does a lot of heavy lifting in the words "black bear."
