i think for understandable historical reasons drugs are not very well accepted in China and probably wont be for a while, tho i think a large % of ppl do smoke weed in china? china is actually the largest producer of hemp and cbd in the world

There is some irony in now the Brits forced opium on China through war but a few centuries later the US has hooked like a quarter of it’s own citizens on opiates just for the profit.

Cannabis in modern China is mostly associated with Uygher people smoking hash. Drug use in general is pretty frowned upon outside of Euro/Anglosphere countries mainly because of colonial-imposed laws that cracked down on drugs from the 20th century Progressive era (thanks libs!)

55 ethnicities, many of whom live in the mountainous regions, and no one smokes weed? Seems hard to believe.
