Why the f*** are people so anal about mind altering substances?
    #22502767 - 11/09/15 09:41 PM (8 years, 2 months ago)

So yeah.  Why is it that weed, LSD,LSA,Psilocin/Psilocybin,DMT,Mescaline and many other things are so strongly and universally frowned upon by western culture?  Like, I feel like they are a window to some very amazing, beautiful things.  Yes, you should not drive while tripping, but alcohol presumably has a similar risk factor in vehicular situations.  There is nothing morally wrong about seeking a new perspective.

This has been bugging me for a long, long while.  My mom was a lawyer, minor alcoholic, and used pot at parties a few times, but never agreed that weed (or any other mind altering substances) could be neutral or beneficial.

Weed is barely frowned upon anymore in a lot of western places. If I said I did acid (which I have made the mistake of admitting in the past) even just one time, people would literally look at me differently. Like think I can't be trusted, my brain is fried, I'm legally insane or other bullshit. If I told people I'd tried weed they'd be like yea me too. Trying it drunk at a party and using it everyday by yourself are too different things though. I don't know why LSA belongs on that list either, nobody frowns on it they have no idea what it is. People are easily programmed. The reason they hate drugs is because you're supposed to hate drugs. The church used to have a lot of influence and those things were seen as morally wrong and also a good scapegoat. The government has carried the tradition on.

Generations of fear based propaganda is very effective. It works with other topics too.

What does drunk driving have to do with anything? It is super frowned upon by everyone...
and what does tripping while driving have to do with people looking down on psychedelics?

When get down to it, people are afraid of what they don't understand. And they don't understand psychedelics and why people like them because psychedelics feel so weird to them that it scares them... And if you like they feeling, then oh you must be weird and crazy to like that so then you scare them also..

And good point.

This thread was moved from Other Drugs Discussion.

Reason:
Seems most appropriate in the Pub per rule 3 of ODD, and you'll probably get a lot more feedback.

People aren't anal about those drugs, at least not in California.

I can say out loud in public that I've done ecstasy or acid. You know why? Because X and acid are "white people drugs."

What I CAN'T say out loud in public, is that I love smoking crack or PCP.

Because western culture is built around the ignorance of the working class, about making people believe that if they work hard enough, they can get rich and not have to work hard anymore.

Mind altering substances make you question what you were taught to believe, which inevitably leads to the truth, and people who know the truth don't make very good workers :lol:

Because we all force each other to over exert our selves into the system , and mind altering drugs may push you away from being a slave
