Pot Lowers IQ - Permanently

Cannabis smoking 'permanently lowers IQ'

50% of the population have a higher IQ than an 18 year old with an average 100 IQ. If he vapes 3 times a week for 20 years, by age 38, he will have suffered an irretrievable 8 point loss in IQ down to 92, so that 78% of the populace have superior intelligence to him.

“persistent users” who started as teenagers suffered a drop of eight IQ points at the age of 38, compared to when they were 13.

Persistent users meant those who used it during at least three of the ages from 18 to 38, and who said at each occasion they were smoking it on at least four days a week.

Nobody proposes legalizing for teenagers. Kids report that they get pot almost as easily as beer or cigarettes, although the latter legal drugs are much more widely used among adults; this evidence indicates that the best way to keep a drug away from kids is to legalize it for adults, thus giving its sellers an economic incentive to not sell to kids.

That’s the whole idea. The lower IQ is a feature, not a bug. The liberal elite (Soros, Trudeau et al) wants the population stoned and stupid so that they don’t question all the bulls—t.

Hilarious BS. Thanks for that.

IMO, authoritarian prohibitionists are not one whit different than leftist progressives. Both are for gov’t force against its citizens & very anti-Liberty.
