the book "Drugs as Weapons Against Us" by john l. potash posits that drugs (including marijuana) is used by the powers that be (capital) for the purpose of suppression and control (opium wars, cia mkultra, contras, etc). i imagine the fine folks over here might surely have something different to say, discuss.
that's all true, which is why i only do the secret revolutionary drugs the CIA doesn't know about

Might as well say Food or Sex is a weapon against us.
Psychoactive substances are an integral part of human culture. Humans have always used them. Pre-humans also used them. Other animals use them and they also get high on things we can't get high on. The tendency of Capital is to dispossess us of everything natural to us and turn it against us.
Yeah and guns are also used as weapons against us, but I'm still gonna own a gun if I want to
