For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/El Chisme

That infographic does worry me a little bit, I've known too many people who fried their brain from too much weed as teenagers, and cannot function properly because of it. Was them being a teen the reason behind the damage? Maybe not, but it was the reason why they didn't have enough moderation.
Though my solution wouldn't be "ban all drugs from kids" because that's literally how this sort of shit happens, they get high, have a great time, nothing bad happens, so they keep doing it, and end up relying on it, and in turn, because all the adults around them just have a "you should never take drugs" attitude, they never actually have a proper talk about their issues and so it just ends up getting worse.
A better "drug education" for teens would be to teach moderation and proper knowledge of side effects, not "if you take drugs it's destroy your life" but "smoking weed every now and then is ok, but too much too often can and will fuck you up."
Yeah, the drug part is my primary reservation.
Edit: It appears to be the opinion of the infographic's creator rather than a topic explored in its cited literature.
