Speaking of propoganda, has anyone seen the new "above the influence" commercials? They blare them all day at my school. If you haven't seen them, they usually go like this, A teenager is sitting somehwere in the aftermath of a stupid activity, a narrator comes on and says "Yesterday, my friends told me to smoke some pot (I like the word choice in these commercials), then today they told me to (stupid activity.)

It's crazy, I took a business class last semester and we went over advertising and propoganda techniques, this commercial uses nearly every one of them.

They don't even say the "harmful" effects anymore, they don't tell you anything about it other than it's "bad". It's the real-life equivelent of "Drugs are bad, mmkay?" "Mar-a-joo-wanna is bad, mmkay?"

What I think is crazy is that they focus on cannabis, why? There are much more harmful drugs that I could obtain as easily as cannabis. Yet they focus on weed. Our government is crazy, I'm moving out of the U.S. as soon as I can.
