Large parts of the world are being polarized at a rate rarely seen before, helped in no small measure by social media ‘filter bubbles’ and algorithms that divide people sharply along the lines of nationality or ideology, their underlying human connections rendered increasingly irrelevant. Perhaps such deep hatred and suspicion of the other was always there, but now it has taken center stage and is being used as a potent election strategy by populist and hyper-nationalist leaders the world over. Like herds of cattle, large numbers of people are being programmed and deployed as pawns for a larger agenda. Therefore, perhaps real change begins with rewiring our perceptual framework. Psychedelic substances have been ingested sacramentally by indigenous cultures to achieve this goal since the dawn of time, and now they’re being validated by the scientific and medical communities. The shifts in consciousness that can be brought about by psychedelics can help in dissolving the man-made boundaries or fear of the other that are implanted in our collective psyche.The first paragraph is true. Elites always rule by dividing. That's called POLITICS. Modern elites have vastly better cleavers. Every form of discontent is divided into plus and minus sides, and the pluses and minuses are organized via Facebook to pursue IMPOSSIBLE GOALS. Impossible goals guarantee addiction and perpetual increase of fervor and frenzy. Gotta try harder! Try harder! The second paragraph is false and sneaky. This dickhead is telling us that using acid will lead us to peace and flowers and love. Wrong. Anyone who has actually USED acid knows that it leads to powerful paranoia. Therefore: This dickhead is just another agent provocateur, mobilizing forces to work toward a SPECIFICALLY IMPOSSIBLE GOAL. The harder you try for peace and love, the more paranoid you get. Gotta try harder! Harder! There's nothing wrong with SANE paranoia, based on experience and observation. When you know how a process works, or when you know how one type of human behaves, you know what to expect from the process or type. Sane paranoia requires leaving a little room for exceptions, because there are occasional exceptions. But when you see the unmistakable signature of a tyrannical trick, you can't leave any room at all. NATURE IS BOUNDARIES. LIFE WITHOUT BOUNDARIES IS DEATH.
