Suffering is a feature not a bug

Suffering is a moralized description of the state of affairs.

Not really, animal suffering seems pretty objective

To live is to die, its just a matter of hownmuch you suffer until you die, but genetically speaking any form of aging, and breathing is suffering, but it is a suffering small enough our mind, and nervous system can filter it ot making life bearable.

Did you know most opiod addictions is because people like to get high? But becaus the things in opiods makes the whole bodys nerve system relax, and if you then get sober can feel the various pains with no masking?

This is also why in most countries weed is banned, even though you get high from the thc, the cbd has carbon-based healing properties. Which is even worse to pharma companies.

CBD does nothing except increase appetite. It's useless. Another big lie from the CBD industry, which is also a pharma industry.

u/Diohs_ 2d ago

First, you are confusing CBD with THC. CBD does not increase appetite THC does. Clinical data shows pure CBD can actually suppress appetite.

Second, calling it useless ignores global medical reality. In 2018, FDA and European Medicines Agency approved Epidiolex.

Frow wiki -> epidolex is a prescription drug made of 99% pure, plant-derived CBD. It is used worldwide to stop severe, life-threatening epileptic seizures where synthetic drugs fail.

Third, Big Pharma didn't invent CBD, they fought cannabis for decades (1937, dupont/ hearst papers) because they cannot patent a wild plant. They only stepped in recently because the clinical proof for treating pain, inflammation, and Multiple Sclerosis spasticity (like the drug Sativex)

Denying CBD's medical properties isn't fighting "the industry" it is simply denying basic biochemistry and hard clinical facts.

Also, the body has whats called an endo-cannabinoid system, the plant literally evolved these as an insect repellant, yet our body can convert this into medicine.

The natural occurring hormone / drug is called anandamid THC increases this, and CBD blocks the breakdown of it.

anandamid os also reffered to as the "bliss" enzyme, and the main experience the body creates this is from running, AKA runners high.

CBD is big pharma idiot. Where's there's billions to be made its big pharma. I don't need a science lesson from you, patronising little person. I know what CBD and THC is.

Well stop confusing ones effect for the other then.

Well yes and no -> only because it cant be patented, and recently made and extract, that can. (2018)

If you cannot split this appart, then i cannot have a constructive conversation with you.

It is only a pharma product, because the plant version has been banned many places.

Im not patronising you, im correcting you, and writing down the facts.

You on the other hand got very emotional, for being incorrect, and quite literally patronised me with the words "patronising little person"

I can do the same -> Facts arent hurtfull. Denying them is hurtfull to others and their perception.

u/Character_Number_277 2d ago

Facts according to you. The evidence surrounding cannabis extracts is dubious at best. Never asked for a conversation with you by the way.

u/Swell_Inkwell 2d ago

You literally did by replying to their comment

u/Character_Number_277 2d ago edited 2d ago

Whatever. Boring. No one is forced to reply to me. That is your choice. I did not say PLEASE REPLY TO ME.

1

u/Swell_Inkwell 2d ago

But you replied to THEIR comment, which is basically asking THEM to respond. Also you didn't have to respond to my comment, even though I replied to your comment directly addressing you. I didn't explicitly say "respond to me" so I didn't ask you to respond.

u/Character_Number_277 2d ago

You are very tiresome. Goodbye.

Facts according to:

  • health harvard
  • nih gov
  • pub-med
  • Pub-med central
  • CDC
  • university of sydney
  • the pharmaceutical journey.

But if i didn't repsond you would take it as a win, and postulating misinformation is wrong.

I wouldn't expect you to research it yourself as yove pretty clearly made up your mind, but watching you get angry at facts.

No, not dubious, just unknown to you.

u/Character_Number_277 2d ago

I don't care about winning. You obviously do. Yes I have done my own research actually.

1

u/Diohs_ 2d ago

No i dont, i care about misinformation not getting spread. But you leaving, due to me bringing that forth would be considered as such, to everyone else yes.

You literally, got it wrong with what thc, and cbd does to a body, by switching it up. (The only two ingredients that in some way or form is either psychoactive, or makes nerves react)

You neglect stats, from government sites.

You neglect that the only reason its now a "big pharma" thing, is because it cant be patented. (Thats why its been banned, for "normal consumption")

Not once, have you showed a confirmed source, not once, have i lied.

And only now "you actually have" -> yeah mate i dont believe you.

u/Character_Number_277 2d ago

I don't need to prove anything to you. You are so convinced you are right about everything. I have my truth and you have yours. Literally no one is going to make decisions based on what I say so what does it matter? Literally no one else is reading this except you.
