Ive been on this earth for a while now and have myself seen many gateway drugs including:
Alcohol
Cigarettes
125cc motorcycles
DJI Mini drones
Cessna 172s
Ender-3's
120v fluxcore welders
All of these are more harmful (financially, at least) than marijuana.

So, if I understand this correctly, the White House is about to relax federal restrictions on marijuana.
The current White House occupant is republican backed.
But that same republican party is now (again) pushing back on marijuana.
Is this mutiny? Good for them! At least it is some more noise to add to the chaos.

Musk/Rogan are telling Trump to do it but the police state needs a reason to arrest minorities

Conflicting interests.

Sure seems like they don't need reasons anymore

Republicans are about equally divided between “it’s fine even if not for me” and “it is evil and must be punished at all costs”.

Like alcohol, nicotine, and religion!
