A deal to end the 41-day government shutdown is running into turbulence, thanks to a single Senate objection: Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.). Senate Republican and Democratic leaders say they need to resolve Paul’s objection to a provision in the government funding package before they can accelerate consideration of the bill. The provision would restrict the unregulated sale of intoxicating hemp-based products.
What would you call a single serving bottle of liquor?
A fifth.

No idea, what do you mean?
A 50ml bottle would be called what? The most common answer is a racist term for Japanese people and I have to correct almost every employee I have trained because of how common it is.
The correct proper answer is a “mini” but there’s a more common term.
I honestly dont know what term you mean and I probably dont even know it, Im not a native English speaker.
But whats your point though? That racist terms are common? Im sure they are, but should that prevent people from trying to avoid them?
No, I was seeing if you were the kind of person to call out one “racist” term while ignoring another one because you don’t see it as one which is what others are doing here with marijuana.
I put “racist” in quotes because i believe you are mistaken as to why Hearst publications popularized the term marijuana. As I recall they popularized marijuana so they could push for a cannabis ban because hemp based papers, which had recent developments to increase their efficiency, would threaten Hearst’s paper processing plants. Had they pushed for a hemp/cannabis ban in their papers the medical community would have freaked out as it was in a bunch of medicines in that time. Thus marijuana was decried in the press.
Interesting. Thats not the story I heard/read but Ill take a look again.
But yes, Im sure I also have “racist” or problematic terms in my vocabulary without knowing about them.
Icod be mistaken about Hearst as he did lose a bunch of land to the Mexican liberation. He was very racist tegarding Mexicans as a result.
