I'm happy to see anybody unburdened by the US legal system, but there's something underwhelming about the most powerful politician in the country only now deigning to use his executive power.

People are cheering and memeing in unsurprising reddit-logo fashion and I'm like bruh, he could have done this and more. Years ago. And they're talking about the necessity of voting and how bad trump would be. Like where do you think Brandon was when drafting the anti marijuana bills?

That said, I don't want to come across as unreasonable when good things happen. If a lib approached me and shared this news, what would be an appropriate response?

Link because I got that bird box disease where I want to make people to see the thing.

    EVERYTHING with the democratic machine is cynically and coldly calculated to win the suckers over and get those votes. They don't give a fuck about you, or anyone else. They jumped for joy when Roe v Wade was overturned and started salivating at the thought of exploiting voters over it.

    If they actually wanted to do something, they'd remove it, and most of the other drugs from being federally illegal, and provide resources to support drug use rehabilitation.
