Nothing I've been saying is anything but correct. Marijuana cannot cause mental illness. It can react with existing issues and sometimes exacerbate symptoms, but its not the cause of it, and suggesting otherwise is nothing but fear mongering.

There's no real strong basis for that statement at all.

We know that long term cannabis use likely causes long term effects in certain areas of the brain, which is entirely unsurprising. The exact affect this has on propensity to different mental illnesses is just simply not well known, though there is good observational and longitudinal cohort evidence that suggests a causal role in psychotic disorders.

No, it hasn't.

Cannabis use can cause acute psychosis, which is why a causal relationship with chronic psychotic disorders is more plausible.

No, it's definitely not.

But I think the information is deliberately phrased to incite fear.

If you look up the definition for psychosis, it almost implies reefer madness levels.

> a severe mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality.

Some Christian mom in the middle of Ohio is going to read this and be like, "weed makes you psychotic!" which is clearly not true. Well, I guess it depends how much you really ingest. There's crazy like 1000 mg THC brownies nowadays.

There's a real observed relationship between marijuana use being an antecedent/risk factor for psychosis.

The meta-analysis in the OP was not pulled, none of the things I have linked to have been retracted. The meta-analysis factors in the Egypt study, but there is plenty of evidence outside of it.

If you exclude that study, pretty much everything becomes indistinguishable from no effect in the meta-analysis you posted.

Pretty sure 15 years ago, most parents wouldn't approve of their 16/17 year old daughter dating a 20 year old dude.

There were like half a dozen girls at any given time in my hs that were dating dudes who had graduated, somewhere between 18-20. Usually doucebags that just wanted to smoke weed and drink bud light and pretend hs never ended, but still.

Hell, you can go back to the general media and see all sorts of evidence of this. Like shows from the early 2000s will often have girls in the 16 or so range engaging in relationships with older men.

Like, I'm not even saying it's good or bad, but it's clearly become more strictly moralized over the years.

But tbh it certainly is weird that there's a cottage industry of selling adult male sex icons to teen girls, but then when they seek out such a thing for real we tell them they can't have possibly actually wanted it, the dude must have manipulated them into it because of their age. These types of contradictions usually happen with strict by the letter rules that don't really follow any reasonable moral stance.

No, no it does not. There's no excuse for this shady ass behavior. Even if they had a good reason, altering someone's mugshot photo is incredibly illegal.

Idk what you think happens normally, but mugshot procedures have been historically extremely variable. Eyewitness testimony generally sucks to begin with, to the point where it's borderline unethical to present it to a jury.

But there's nothing outrageous about what was done here.

Twitter as well. Both been pretty terrible in the spread of anti vax information. Youtube isn't much better either.

Youtube is probably not as bad at the population level, simply because of the time it takes to interact with the content. But on an individual level it's way way worse, and likely has secondary effects with these people contributing to spread on other services.

I mean, just look at joenumbers.

That's the twitter of the journal the article was written in. It's deliberately deceptive to draw in clicks. Clickbait. Unfortunately shit like this will get massively shared across social media and most people will not click, but take the misleading headline as fact.
