I read that weed makes you not dream, then when you go off weed you have crazy dreams. So heavy, heavy weed users that quit, how long did you have crazy dreams for? (lemmy.ca)

Oh my god the arrogance of professionals.

Just because you know a lot does not mean you know everything. Making statements of the form “X doesn’t happen” is foolish.

A lot of people think that wolf packs have an “alpha” wolf, but wolf experts will tell you that’s a myth.

OP said they read that weed makes you not dream. I happen to know from my education that is not the case.

Sometimes X really doesn’t happen. I never claimed to know everything, but I do know this.

And I happen to know from my experience that it does.

One example of a phenomenon happening is sufficient evidence to overturn claims of the form “X doesn’t happen”.

If your education convinced you that you can eliminate the possibility of things happening entirely, then you were mis-educated.

It's not clear which point OP made that you're claiming is inaccurate.

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

The claim I’m saying is inaccurate is this:

That little factoid is a falsehood

… which referred to OP’s implication that weed makes you not dream, followed by intense dreams when weed is discontinued.

The “factoid” is true because it’s happened to me repeatedly.
