Mankind has enjoyed drugs since they were discovered, even in ancient cultures. It's nothing new. You are just noticing it more because it's on your mind. Of course you're going to see more people talking about it online because it's one of few places people can talk about their drug use freely. Most reggae fans do smoke weed because reggae is related to the Rastafarian religion in which cannabis is used spiritually. Same with Pink Floyd, whose music and light shows were made by people who dropped acid for people who drop acid.
It's unfortunate for you that your interests coincide with those of many drug users, but you are being rather hypocritical here. Your interests probably wouldn't exist if drugs didn't exist. That doesn't mean YOU have to use drugs to enjoy them, but please don't denounce others who do. It's their culture and you are discriminating against them. Discrimination does more harm than drugs.
If pot was completely legal, how much and how often would you use it?
