Why is it so polarizing?
Even people who used to smoke a lot just can t anymore, myself included: I used to exclusively smoke until my early 20s; Now even a couple tokes make me either feel self conscious or totally overwhelmed and „braindead“.
Others have the exact opposite effect, where it makes them super relaxed or even forget all their worries to a point that they need to stop to confront their problems.

Because it’s a drug and drugs impact people very differently. Alcohol for example is more poisonous to some Asians or those of Asian descent with a specific genetic variant. Causes flushing and a lot more ill effects than those without that gene when alcohol is consumed. This is just a single example of a single drug interaction that will vary off a single genetic factor.
It also is not generic. Saying weed is like saying alcohol. What kind is being used is important. You can get weed that’s equivalent to beer or weed that is equivalent to moonshine and everything inbetween.
Generally people who suffer the real ill effects of weed are those who don’t smoke often or at all and when they are or do it’s the moonshine variant or a whiskey variant when realistically they probably want or should be trying the beer variant etc
