Why do potheads get so defensive anytime somebody says something negative about pot?

It’s like you say one negative thing about the jazz cabbage and they act like you just spit on their mother’s grave. Coming from someone who occasionally smokes the devil’s lettuce and thinks it should be legalized, why do they act so offended if you say anything negative it?

I have noticed this as well.

Same thing for:

1. Soccer fans.
2. Beatles fans.

I don't really see this happening.

Only when some dumbos come in and try to argue against legalization while supporting small government... that's what usually gets peopled riled up

This could be applied to anything.

Why do aficionados of X get upset when people talk bad about X?

People are biased towards things they like, not particularly shocking.

Potheads are potheads.......they are funny.


But the blowhards on this forum that pretend to rub elbows with Louisiana’s Billionaires and know all about their finances are SO much more comical!


Go read a few threads.....3 or 4 posters really stand out. You’ll see.

I haven't smoked in years because of work. I actually quit years before that because I didn't like feeling down, but I think they get so upset is cause the same people talking bad about it see no problem with alcohol. To act like seeing someone piss drunk or driving drunk is somehow superior to being high is a joke.

I agree. I like pot too but most potheads will try to convince you that it’s fine to smoke and drive and that it’ll cure most diseases.

I think pot’s legal status makes smokers extra defensive bc they instinctively want to convince everyone it should be legalized.

I draw a distinction between potheads and stoners. Potheads smoke a lot of weed and go about their business. They aren't the type to post a bunch of pot leaves and dubious claims all over facebook or do try-hard shite like 'celebrating' 4/20. Stoners base their identity around it and are likely to react negatively to any perceived slight.

I consider myself a pothead.

I'm too high to care about someone saying negative things about weed.

It's a political issue these days and, if we know anything about the year 2019, anything political is a hot topic.

Because pot heads have nothing else interesting to talk about.

From a non pothead, of course.
