>>2426271>Tobacco has only been in the west for like 500 years you dinkYes, and in that time, smoking it has become associated with countless hobbies and professions. When you see traditional depictions of sailors, hikers, hunters, fishermen, lumbermen, adventurers, investigators, professors, fucking snowmen for crying out loud, they have a pipe. Tobacco is deeply ingrained in Western culture and has been since 1492.
>Ancient Indo-European burials have cannabis in them.Yes, as a fiber used for making cloth. We are talking purely about smoking weed here. I don’t think literally anyone has a problem with hemp ropes or cloth. There are no cases of recreational use in Europe in ancient times. In fact, one of the few historical European accounts we have came from Herodotus who described its use by the Scythians in Asia as barbaric. Cannabis wasn’t reintroduced to the West as something you smoked until the mid-1800s, you “dink”.
