Cannabis High
A tale of Oakland teens turning into monsters after smoking legal weed.
The narrative begins with the normalization of marijuana consumption in America. Characters at a high school take advantage of open dispensary laws to buy products like Good Old Mary Jane. The story reveals that this accessibility is intentional. The substance acts as a catalyst for mutation, converting smokers into hostile entities called Clickers. This process initiates a widespread crisis described as the Weed Apocalypse. The focus remains on the immediate consequences of legal access and the loss of human control. The text does not offer solutions but rather depicts the onset of this specific calamity driven by everyday habits.
This work is situated in a near-future America where marijuana is legal nationwide. It reflects on the social reality of Oakland, California, and the ease with which teenagers can obtain drugs without arrest. The context relies on current trends in drug policy and public consumption spaces.
