I'm making fun of the "we should just allow porn on here too right?" argument and how we gotta keep minors "safe", like this place is some crazy wild west part of the internet.

One can be prescribed as medicine, one is literally porn. Also, I'm pretty sure most of us would do something about somebody being inappropriate with minors on here.

Either way, as mentioned previously, different types of conversations should be allowed.

They just create an easier exaggerated argument and attack that.

I believe Seliph is talking in the general sense. I agree with them, certain things shouldn't be shown to kids. Mods can handle that as they know what is best.

Yes, slzzpz is correct in all forms of the word, but OP shouldn't make debate threads if he cannot properly debate without appealing to pure emotion.

Well, I personally find it uncivil to promote drugs to kids.
But hey, you do you, man!

Lol, he's trolling. All this absurdity is entertaining.

Cries all over this thread........




crazy stuff

 

[LambdaDelta]

my god, how does this thread keep deep-diving even further into absurdities every time I leave it for a bit?

TBH i think druggies should have the self-decency to limit their discussion of how much they love drugs to a private place IN GENERAL, but they don't & since they won't ever be like that it should be enforced.

edit: i also want to specify political discussions and the like are ok, just not the glorification of drugs

Sugar is too dangerous, better ban it.

i've mentioned that my qualm is with the argument itself and not tied to marijuana in any sense. i didn't really want to have to explain further because of its detachment to the original subject.

the problem with "eh kids are exposed to worse on the internet/wherever" is it's not really a conditional argument, you can't use it in favour of weed but not porn because the worse that kids are exposed to is often porn, or real life violence or harder drugs/alcohol. it implies that we should be okay with them being exposed to worse in the first place when we absolutely should not be. we should not be okay with this being the norm for the internet.

edit was that at op... why the remark after my post then i

 

[Hanzoisbae]

Sugar is too dangerous, better ban it.

Yeah, according to OP the potential risk is reason enough

Isnt that sig a little lewd? What site are you getting it from?

Gurl, you are hilarious...

 

[Alienfish]

Why do people use asterisks to get away, rofl.

I don't see any harm discussing it. Honestly there are a bunch of things that should be banned also if you wanna go that way.

 

[EtchaSketch]

y'all just wanna add me
some of you are pretty stellar and hilarious and I want some friends before everything goes down

 

[Hanzoisbae]

I want some friends before everything goes down

Are you planning something, dear?

Are you planning something, dear?

HAHA i'm not THAT mischievous, I'm just predicting the foreseeable future

 

[hamster]

its whatever to me. weed is whatever. i dont think that anyone has encouraged it. i mean i saw someone on here say they snorted coke at a new years party and they liked it (this was a few years back) and a few people replied saying yeah cocaine is awesome!!! and id get why that would be against the rules but anyone who shows off ab taking drugs and glorifies them are annoying but theyre not explicitly promoting them and i think if u can talk about cigs and alcohol u can talk about weed

Could these threads influence somebody to try drugs because they see other people with a common interest claiming its "fun" and they enjoy it?

No, it's not like anybody's selling them for TBT. They're too expensive anyway, it's much easier to get the hard stuff like coffee and sugar. But seriously though, if your teenager is capable of buying that stuff, they're mature enough to be responsible users. Let them make their own decisions, your personal morality shouldn't dictate the behaviour of others. The important part is that they're safe and educated about it.

Could this cause a kid to get in trouble if their parents saw these posts on their computer?

Only if they're stuck up and controlling. And honestly that's worse parenting than letting your children make their own mistakes and learn.

Is there a line between right and wrong on this topic? Example: "I love to veg out on some heroin when I play ACNH" or "I usually hit my bong and just play New Horizons for a few hours"

Clearly, you've already drawn it. It's hard drugs vs soft drugs. Weed should be less offensive to you than alcohol because it is. Not only is weed not physically addictive, it also helps people with a lot of different health issues. Also it's ridiculous that you chose heroin to represent the hard drug. You will definitely not be playing video games or posting online while high, you seem to avoid alcohol and nicotine in this discussion too.

Is it possible that discussions like this are more appropriate for discord or other social platforms?

This is a forum that doesn't allow children, neither do similiar social platforms. This is a forum that allows general discussion, so anything that's reasonable is appropriate. You can't just pretend like the topic is amoral in every possible way, you shouldn't take things out of context either.

• Violence, terrorism, suicide, self-harm, or other obscene content

You clearly know what the forum rules meant by this paragraph, just as much as you know the difference between weed and heroin. Don't just pretend that the threads talking about weed are comparable to the possibility of discussing heroin and cocaine, Nobody is doing that on here because that's completely inappropiate. Any substance can kill you, if you want to be offended sugar is much more glorified on here.
