The Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission is under fire after a scathing state audit uncovered over $1.7 million in uncollected fees, weak enforcement, and systemic mismanagement.

Celebrity weed is everywhere, flashy, overpriced, and often full of mids. This piece rips the gloss off the jars and calls out the marketing machine hijacking cannabis culture. Real smokers know the difference between herb and hype. This is your wake-up call.
Weed didn’t survive because it was polite. It survived because it was radical, risky, and rebellious.

If this is legalization, it’s legalization without justice—and the people who built the culture are still waiting outside the gates.
