Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

This is not the outlook of communists, to make your political views contingent on what communists can do for you. We are communists because we care about humanity, not because they do shit for us.
This is pure liberalism, bordering on lifestylist anarchism. We communists always value community betterment over personal freedom. Weed aside, this isn't an argument stance you should be taking for or against weed.
This could have been said by any right winger who values their personal freedom over the proletariat. I'm dissapointed in this community for upvoting such individualist nonsense.
End of the day, the pot-smokers will smoke weed whether it’s legal or not, Cheech and Chong made a whole career out of breaking the laws around marijuana, and millions of others are breaking those same laws to this day around the world. If it’s illegal in a future society, I can guarantee that there will still be people smoking weed and it’s very likely it will not affect anyone else but those consuming it. Weed is really not that destructive, it’s used as a medical treatment for many different ailments, like glaucoma, stimulating the lateral hypothalamus for chemo patients, to write it off completely is dogmatic in my opinion
