THE FACTS.” Below it, smaller white text states that the Post claims New York is facing a wave of cannabis poisoned teens, but the data says otherwise.

Massachusetts Panic: Hemp, Kids, and a Convenient Scapegoat

A digital graphic styled as a magazine feature with bold headline text that reads: “Massachusetts Panic: Hemp, Kids, and A Convenient Scapegoat.” The background shows the entrance to a hospital emergency room with a police car flashing blue lights.

High Anxiety: New York’s ER Panic Over Cannabis

Feature graphic for Pot Culture Magazine with bold headline “HIGH ANXIETY – NEW YORK’S ER PANIC OVER CANNABIS” in cream-colored text. The word “EMERGENCY” glows in red neon above the entrance to a hospital ER. A large green cannabis leaf overlays the lower right of the design. At the bottom, the site address reads “PotCultureMagazine.com” with ©2025 Pot Culture Magazine / Art Dept. branding.

New York ER visits tied to cannabis have doubled since legalization in 2021, with more than 135,000 cases logged in 2023. Prohibitionists call it a crisis, but the truth is education gaps, black-market products, and a botched rollout. Cannabis is not killing people; propaganda is. Outlaw culture says regulate, educate, and stop the panic.
