    1. No Cookie Plug cookies include cannabis or CBD, but the company realizes its marketing could be interpreted as being hazy. Their representatives go out of their way to clarify the ingredients.

    1. Your comment reeks with racist undertones and is completly ignornat as well as uncalled for.

    2. While hip hop culture has many positive aspects, it can also have negative effects on young people, who is the primary consumer of that culture . Some of these negative effects include:

      Promotion of Materialism: Hip hop culture often glorifies material wealth, leading to a focus on material possessions as a measure of success rather than education. This can contribute to a sense of materialism and a desire for expensive goods among young people in order to keep up.

      Misogyny and Objectification of Women: Some elements of hip hop culture, particularly in rap music, portray women in a negative light, often objectifying them and promoting misogynistic attitudes and using words that just a few decades ago would have never been allowed to be played or published. This can contribute to harmful stereotypes and attitudes towards women.

      Violence and Aggression: Some hip hop music and culture can glorify violence and aggressive behavior, the thug mentality. This can influence young people to adopt violent or aggressive attitudes and behaviors anyone denying this is just not living in reality.

      Drug Use and Substance Abuse: Hip hop music and “the culture” promote drug use and substance abuse through their lyrics, videos and culture, which can influence young people to experiment with drugs or view drug use as acceptable.

      Negative Influence on Academic Performance: Excessive engagement with hip hop culture, particularly in terms of prioritizing music and lifestyle over academic pursuits, negatively impact academic performance and future opportunities.

      Perpetuation of Negative Stereotypes: Hip hop culture reinforces negative stereotypes about race, gender, and socioeconomic status, which can be damaging to individuals and communities.

      Pointing out the obvious is not racist but rather a fact that continues to have a negative influence on our youth, but by no means is it alone, just one of many contributing factors.
