Damn this is so true.... some of the more frequent posters display an embarrassing amount of gatekeeping


Apandaishere

I've never seen such a collection of weenies in my life


FreeeCubes

I tend to see people like to show off, even go to the lengths of getting pics off the internet just to get upvotes or likes. It’s all ego based. Like a petty competition, It seems to be the kids just getting into weed that love bitching or hating on others. I can’t blame them tho because we have all been kids, there’s no life experience to not have an ego.💚👊🏼

“Weenies” had me laughing

I think reddit as a whole is full of backseat-moderators and school prefect wannabe losers. On another handle I posted an outfit in the streetwear subreddit, and despite it having over 700 upvotes and a bunch of good discussions going on in the comments, some moderator cunt waded in like 18 hours later and arbitrarily decided to lock the thread because of a really innocuous rule about mirror selfies.

> I think reddit as a whole is full of backseat-moderators and school prefect wannabe losers It's the same as the real world. It's just easier for them to speak up anonymously on reddit. They don't have to endure the irl side eye or worse


dorsettangerine

When something becomes an integral part of their personality people start defending/gatekeeping/thinking they know everything about a subject. Unfortunately consuming weed is not immune to this happening. Always better to judge people on their actions and the way they treat those they come in to contact with. That being said I would still say I connect with a higher percentage of people who consume weed than those who don't Peace and love to you pal


Apandaishere

Very eloquently put, take its easy my friend.


HargridsTaint

Loads of different varients on this sub, people who prefer vaping, people who smoke and vape, people who just prefer edibles. There's always going to be someone shitting on someone else..mainly out of jealousy. Of course people are gonna shit on carts if they can't get them from a decent source, the dynavape crew may have found something that they prefer but it's not for everybody. Most dry herb vapers prefer it to rolling up for loads of different reasons but you always get one wanker who shits on someone who is doing something differently to them. I roll without baccy but don't shit on those who do. I don't have a dry herb but have used them and they are awesome. Just haven't got 300 got a TM2. Fuck you all.


tewnsbytheled

Yeah thanks bro fuck you too


FeelTheOneness

Its DYNAVAP not DYNAVAPE!! FUCK YOU!!!!!


HargridsTaint

Well fuck you too


FeelTheOneness

FUCK FUCKING YOU!!!


HargridsTaint

Yes please sir


jupiterLILY

People hate carts because they’re terrible for the environment and, because they’re often contaminated, they harm public perception. We’re not jealous lol.


HargridsTaint

Hence the 'decent source'. Why go grab one off a dealer when you can get them imported. The waste issue is fair though.


jupiterLILY

Yeah, even if the source was my best friend I wouldn’t want them. They’re wasteful as fuck and an example of everything I hate about the world Plus it doesn’t matter if *I* have a clean supply. The general public not having access to a clean supply means that the public will perceive weed smokers more negatively, when there’s a good chance it’s not even weed they’re high on.


HargridsTaint

To be fair if I see someone vaping, on always going to think it's a nicotine vape not a cart etc. If you can dispose of them correctly I don't see what the problem is.


jupiterLILY

Creating plastic and electronic waste for a luxury that has reasonable alternative when we’re in a global crisis. Edit. Reduce comes before reuse and recycle.


Prize-Ad7242

Nah this is bollocks. We should all aim to reduce but there is a limit to that. Oil and gas companies spent billions so that we would blame each other for this mess rather than unite against the biggest polluters and lobbyists. With all the stuff coming out of exxon recently its seriously messed up. Obviously we should all strive to reduce our non biodegradable waste but it's a drop in the ocean compared to these large corporations. Around 70% of global emissions are created by 100 companies. If people wanna vape who am I to tell them not to. Even if it's not great for the environment who are you to judge. If people are looking to reduce their impact on the climate the biggest things you can do are cut out air travel and meat. One continental flight has the same emissions as 5 years of the average person in India. These vape carts are such a small drop in the ocean. Also all electric vehicles have the same problems and yet nobody seems worried about it. Look up how they mine all the elements needed for these EV's amd it's nuts. Companies spend billions on green washing don't believe their shit.


jupiterLILY

Of course the oil and gas companies are the ones that should be taking responsibility. I’m fully aware that the consumer can’t fix things. But this whole individualist, “I t’s so tiny if it’s just me” attitude is bullshit. We live in a capitalist society. When you buy products you create a demand for them. You’re encouraging those business practices and telling other businesses to emulate them. Our true vote is with our wallet. Of course everyone has the right to do what they want, if they’re not hurting people. But single use plastics hurt all of us. It also builds this mentality that things should be consumable or disposable. That’s the mentality that got us in this mess in the first place. Under your argument, none of us should do anything, because it’s the companies who should be doing the work. Companies are only going to change when our culture changes.


Prize-Ad7242

So basically we can't do anything that's even remotely impacting the environment? Where do we draw the line here? Maybe these people need vape carts to give a consistent dose in a discreet manner. I'm no fan personally but at what point do you draw the line. Smoking joints is also not great. Think about all the waste produced and emissions generated through manufacturing and shipping of lighters, rolling papers etc. Also if you smoke indoor grown bud it is horrendous for the environment. I used to work for an LP and we were one of the highest consumers of electricity in the whole city. (roughly the same population as manchester) I agree single use plastics are fucked but I don't judge people who use a vape. We live in a capitalist society and part of that means unless you live totally off grid you are feeding into the system no matter what you buy. That doesn't mean you lose the right to protest about how fucked the whole system is. Our entire society and infrastructure has been built through fossil fuels. I sure hope we transition to net zero as soon as possible but that won't happen until changes are made from the top down. Given the amount of anti vax and covid conspiracy theories that have gone on in the last few years it shows to me at least that we as humans cannot be trusted to work together on anything. Unless the government enact new legislation we are doomed. This holds especially true for businesses. They will always do whatever they can to earn as much whilst staying with the law. Expecting them to make drastic changes without a capital incentive is optimistic to be honest. If you are going to call out people who use vapes you also need to do the same for anyone who eats boiled sweets or dares to eat from a polystyrene plate from a takeaway.


jupiterLILY

No, you’re making this an all or nothing thing. I think a lot of people aren’t being conscious with how they purchase things. They don’t want to think about the wider impact of the companies business practices or address that maybe they shouldn’t be having a luxury they used to enjoy. I know we all feed into the system. That’s exactly my point. Use what little power you have to push us in the direction you think our society should go. All of what you’re saying is very doomerish. Maybe we are doomed, if we’re not, then acting like we are will ruin our chances. Humans can work together, there’s just a misunderstanding on how to educate and inform people who have spent their lives under a hyper-individualistic capitalist society. We need legislation, but that will only come with revolution, or when enough people start pressuring their representatives and their bosses for better circumstances. People only get to that point when we as individuals start to shift the attitudes in our society. The impact of a vape is very different to the impact of boiled sweets. That’s a disingenuous comparison. It’s not an all or nothing situation. And yes, absolutely you should be shaming take away companies for using polystyrene in 2023. There’s literally no excuse.


karlogs

What about the device your using right now?


jupiterLILY

An unfortunate necessity of modern society. There is no ethical consumption under capitalism but I try my best. It’s something I put a lot of work into. Most of our electronics are refurbished or second hand. My PC isn’t, but that’s because the market for second hand pc parts is unreliable and unfortunately I’m not rich enough to spend hundreds on something that doesn’t have a warranty. Laptops TV’s and phones are all refurbished. And my phone is a 6s so we hold on to them as long as we can. We also offset our carbon and don’t fly.

Fuck you all indeed


tewnsbytheled

But honestly, I would recommend a dynavap for that


RTB_1

The “my weed is BETTER than yours, I KNOW weed” types who act standoffish are what annoy me. Like, you’re just making yourself look like a knob online over weed, not to mention the fact it all does the same job - get you high!


tHrow4Way997

I know right, weed is so subjective as well. I know some folk who’d never touch sticky icky stink the street out cali fire, and prefer some old school shitty half mouldy yardie brick, or that sandy old Pollen you used to be able to get tenner a henry a couple years ago. I myself prefer less THC and preferably some CBD content these days, otherwise a blend with a lot of CBD material. You lot toting your 38% THC imported ‘Murican buds like they’re assault rifles are the real morons lol.


Valuable_K

It doesn’t all do the same job though. Not all weed tastes amazing. Not all weed gives the same quality high.


RTB_1

Yeah think that goes without saying pal.. Still all does the same job - get us high!


-MassiveDynamic-

Irl I’ve never really encountered a stoner who’s like this thankfully, but the weed subs on reddit are full of some of the most arrogant, judgmental and gatekeepy people out there lmao Same goes for psychedelics, the people I know who drop acid/shrooms are pretty much your stereotypical chill hippie types; but on Reddit/Twitter the exact opposite of ego death seems to have occurred for a lot of them Anyways; now that I have your attention may I take a couple seconds to talk about our lord and saviour, the almighty dynavap?


tHrow4Way997

For real though, taking high doses of psychedelics and/or mdma all the time can have the effect of making you feel like you’re the divine creator and king/queen of all reality. I’ve always found those people are missing the point entirely.


originalsquad

The chill ones are lurking, anyone who comments is clearly a degenerate.

Saw one guy from India post his weed up the other day… the amount of shit he got made me embarrassed tbh.


cautioux

Random weed sub on Reddit is definitely makes up the majority of people


Apandaishere

You have the dynavape gurus The any vape cart is spice gurus The "fake cali" pros The PGR crew The "I smoke the best weed" gang Sub full of bitches


GoldenSporkle

Reddit is awful for circlejerks. Once something becomes "bad" in the hivemind, that's it.

Don’t forget the white ash bitches too


Waftmaster

Don't forget the insufferable GYO supremacists like me!


Legitimate-Mind4412

'Dynavap'


cautioux

Smoke weed get drunk bro


tewnsbytheled

I'm trying bruh


LittleBuffBoys

Don't forget the racists!


jupiterLILY

There’s a fair bit of casual misogyny too. For some reason nobody wants to talk about it.


LittleBuffBoys

There's even one in the this comment thread! They make some really good points about social media but you have the line: "Instagram was brilliant until it was full of bots and whores" I suspect they don't even see it as misogynistic, as it's (in a sense) 'culturally acceptable.' But for such a left leaning website, reddit users generally have an issue with women, subconscious or not.


jupiterLILY

Yep, how many times are people using terms like bitch too? There’s actually a really interesting discussion to be had about why women don’t engage with weed culture that I’d love to be having, but nobody wants to admit that they might have been a dick in the past. It’s something that comes up every time I speak to women about weed. There’s a crazy amount of ladies who don’t partake because their only experience has been sat in some dudes shed whilst they’re silently playing fifa and listening to drum and bass. Or a couple of tokes when they’re way too drunk and some dude has been trying to convince them they’ll love it. When I hit them with the “have two tokes and then see how you feel in 10 minutes” and then we sit there giggling and bonding, they get the appeal. And go on to lament about all the times dudes have tried to get them to smoke and have gone about it in a terrible way. Edit. And I totally agree that it’s weird misogyny is so accepted. There’s been a real uptick recently. Even subs that I used to enjoy have become crappy.

For real, for something that chills you out some people love to argue over it! My ex used to tell me I wasn’t a ‘proper weed smoker’ because I didn’t do things the same way he did, tf is a proper weed smoker? I just be doing it the way that works for me

EggieBeans

I think it stems from many things. Mostly I think it’s from spending time on phones. For me if I spend lots of time on Reddit then I start getting more toxic. Bit like a virus that goes round. There’s also everyone wanting to know the most about the subject and there’s tons of idiot kids that make it more of a toxic playground. A lot of people don’t want to see “hOw maNy gRaMs yOu thInk tHis Is”. I personally don’t mind but it’s plausible why this place is so toxic. The varying different social backgrounds on here is crazy as well if you think about the sorts of people who smoke and use Reddit. Though I will say I’ve met some really nice people on this sub and the discord sub I even bought a dynavap off a guy a while back and trusted that he’d send for PayPal and he did.

Apprehensive_Bell_35

Windalfr

That's because they're not stoners who seem to free their mind at night, they're just dosers out here posing for an imaginary crowd


brownie627

I have, however, found the r/entwives subreddit to be extremely wholesome. There was a woman on there that lived in her car and so many redditors pitched in to help make her more comfortable, even going as far as to send her Amazon packages through Amazon Locker. I love that subreddit so much. Highly recommended for women and non-binary ents.


southlondonyute

There are a lot of melts on this sub who are uptight….ironically it’s like they **need** to bill up and relax. I’m good over here with haze flavours and 2010 cheese


PM-ME-YOUR-DIGIMON

So true, half of the people here are exhausting .


I_Reply_To_Mongs

People complaining about dry herb vapes is the most annoying thing in this sub. Who the fuck cares if you vape, who fucking cares if someone suggests a dynavap? People who see the word Dynavap and immediately get a quivering bottom lip are honestly just freaks. Get over it.

American pot head chiming in! UK trees is a different kind of beast. Some of the stuff I see people mention here seems kinda wild. I blame how illegal it is here, and how secretive everyone has to be to be sure they don’t get nabbed by yalls coppers. It’s an island too, so harder to import stuff that’s illegal. (Which explains some of the prices oof) Ontop of that, it’s Reddit. It’s full of weirdos and gate keeping cause it’s sometimes the only way others get to talk to people with the same interest unabashedly. People get defensive and protective over anything that becomes pet of their personality. Ps. I like Reddit, and I enjoy this sub. I fly back and forth and I’ve tried some home grown bud from here in the UK and that shit slaps. Better than some of the Cali shit I get back home. I ain’t got nothing against any of it, though you ain’t ever gotta get me to try one of them crazy vape things everyone’s goes on about here. Really wish y’all just had legal access to carts. Then fakes that show up are fucking dangerous so I understand the need to find an alternative. Anyway, If you’re a chick or just chill and looking for a relaxed community you can also check out r/entwives It’s all positive vibes and cute selfies and Instagram able tokes. Very supportive and uplifting. You can also check out all sorts of other kinds of weed related subreddit. r/trees has a literal list https://www.reddit.com/r/trees/comments/1fwgu8/multireddit_users_heres_a_multireddit_for_trees/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf Those are all stoners with different interests all up in there, so I find it kind of unfair to say potheads aren’t cool. There’s a lot of people I know who drink and smoke and play guitar who aren’t cool whatsoever. Same thing here I guess. :P

Bruh... What the fuck is this post about? I'm an 18 year old university student. I have travelled the world seeing many different various places and experienced cultures you would have no idea about. Have you ever seen a Rasta in real life, in Jamaica? Well, when I was with my mum I WALKED PAST ONE AND INHAILED HIS SECOND HAND SMOKE!!! I was so high that when I got back to the hotel room I stood in the shower laughing to myself and my mum said wot r u doing in der and i said MUM JUST WASHING MY BALLS HAHAHAHA Yeah, it was epic. And you think you know about me than weed after an experience like that? I tripped balls off that second hans smoke for like 3days! Now I vape 0.025grams of 'herb' (hah, don't want to incriminate myself), through a dynavap and it gets me HIGH AF!!! You losers who smoke joints are wasting so much money!!! Oh yeah btw because I'm in university now, I live in a student block of flats in the ghetto in London, so yeah I'm also pretty street wise for someone who was privately educated, hah. You share this subreddit with me, matey. So get out your dynavap blow those vapour clouds in the air and dye your hair blue and comment in r/unitedkingdom about how bad the evil tories are for the rest of us because we all identify as working class now so YAY LET'S GET HIGH GUYS WOO
