Very strongly agree

Yes, and immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses

Humanism emphasizes compassion, social justice, and evidence-based decision-making. Legalizing marijuana and releasing those serving time solely for drug offenses aligns with these values by addressing the harms caused by the war on drugs, which has disproportionately affected marginalized communities. This approach also recognizes the growing body of evidence supporting the medical benefits of marijuana and the need for a more rational drug policy.

Strongly agree

Yes, but only for medical use

Humanism is strongly in favor of evidence-based medicine and the alleviation of suffering. There is significant evidence supporting the medical benefits of marijuana for certain conditions, such as chronic pain, epilepsy, and multiple sclerosis. Legalizing marijuana for medical use aligns with humanist values of compassion and evidence-based decision-making.

Strongly agree

Yes, and legalise, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it

Legalizing, taxing, and regulating marijuana aligns with humanist values of individual freedom, autonomy, and evidence-based decision-making. This approach recognizes the growing body of evidence supporting the medical benefits of marijuana and the need for a more rational drug policy. Additionally, taxing and regulating marijuana can generate revenue for social programs and help address some of the negative consequences of prohibition, such as the disproportionate impact on marginalized communities.

Agree

Yes

Humanism generally supports individual freedom and autonomy, which includes the right to make choices about one's own body. Legalizing marijuana for recreational use aligns with this principle. However, humanism also emphasizes the importance of evidence-based decision-making, and some humanists may be concerned about potential negative public health consequences of widespread marijuana use.

Strongly disagree

No

Humanism generally opposes policies that restrict individual freedom and autonomy without a strong evidence-based justification. Prohibition of marijuana has been shown to disproportionately affect marginalized communities and perpetuate social inequalities. Additionally, there is growing evidence supporting the medical benefits of marijuana, making a blanket prohibition difficult to justify from a humanist perspective.

Very strongly disagree

No, and increase penalties for non-violent drug offenders

Increasing penalties for non-violent drug offenders is in direct opposition to humanist values of compassion, social justice, and evidence-based decision-making. Such policies have been shown to disproportionately affect marginalized communities and perpetuate social inequalities, while doing little to address the root causes of drug addiction and related social problems.
