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.

Backed by NIDA, Big Pharma, and prohibition-era agendas, these fear-driven studies distort data to stall legalization and protect profits.

The question now is: what’s still standing in the way?
