Bullshit Studies that Keep Cannabis Criminalized

A bold editorial graphic for Pot Culture Magazine featuring the headline “Bullshit Studies That Keep Cannabis Criminalized.” On the left, a stack of brown paper folders is labeled “Medical Research” with a skull and crossbones symbol. To the right, a bright green cannabis leaf leans against the stack, beside a glass flask with smoke rising from it. The background is deep green, giving the image a stark, confrontational tone.

For decades, junk science has fueled cannabis prohibition, from bogus chromosome scares to today’s clickbait about weed causing diabetes. Despite billions in tax revenue and no overdose deaths, scare studies dominate headlines while real-world data proves otherwise. This piece exposes how research funding, media bias, and political agendas keep cannabis criminalized against all evidence.

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.

The New York Times Wants to Scare the Sh*t Out of You

A close-up of cannabis products on a wooden table in front of a blurred New York Times newspaper. In the foreground are a small metal container with cannabis buds, a clear bag of colorful THC-labeled gummies, and a small amber vial. Overlaid bold white text reads, “THE NEW YORK TIMES WANTS TO SCARE THE SHIT OUT OF YOU.” ©2025PotCultureMagazine/ArtDept is printed at the bottom left.

The New York Times is pushing a fear campaign on “cannabis poisonings” in kids, built on sloppy hospital coding, bad data, and lazy journalism. We break down the inflated numbers, call out the stupid motherf*ckers leaving edibles out, and show how real regulation not media panic protects children while exposing the NYT’s scare tactics

Blow Me: The Feds Claim They Can Smell THC On Your Breath

A man exhales visible breath or smoke, facing a hand holding a cannabis edible marked with a white marijuana leaf. Bold white text reads: “THE FEDS SAY THEY CAN DETECT THC ON YOUR BREATH.” The background is dark blue. Pot Culture Magazine logo appears in the bottom right corner.

Federal researchers say they’ve detected THC in breath after edible use, but the science is flawed and the implications are dangerous. With no proven link between THC levels and impairment, this tech risks becoming another tool of biased enforcement especially against communities already targeted under cannabis laws

The Counterfeit Cannabis Crisis

A wooden table with cannabis-related items including a red “Medibear” gummy package, a vape cartridge filled with amber-colored oil, and a large cannabis bud in a clear plastic bag. Bold white text reads “The Counterfeit Cannabis Crisis” and the Pot Culture Magazine logo is displayed in the bottom right corner.

Counterfeit cannabis is flooding legal and gray markets worldwide. Toxic THC vapes, fake edibles disguised as candy, and hemp sprayed with synthetic cannabinoids are putting consumers at risk. This investigative report exposes how counterfeit weed products are endangering public health, destroying trust in the cannabis industry, and exploiting legal loopholes while regulators fall behind.

CANNABIS PANIC IN DENVER

A distressed woman holding a joint, with tears on her face, stands in front of a cloudy Denver skyline. A green road sign reading ‘Denver’ and the Colorado state flag appear behind her. A large cannabis leaf and the text ‘Cannabis Panic in Denver’ overlay the image, along with the Pot Culture Magazine logo

Denver’s new “cannabis psychosis” documentary blames weed for mental health crises, but the science tells a different story. Pot Culture Magazine follows the fear machine, exposes the shaky studies, and calls out the system pushing prohibitionist panic. This isn’t about health. It’s about control.
