I was simply asking what you had against this "practice of magick" that really isn't too different from The Secret, a thought tool, or psychological tool that basically follows the "fake-it-'till-you-make-it" philosophy, when used to improve one's personal life. You continued going down the political and purity angle despite my side of the conversation being clear, which is what I did not understand.

Well, I do understand your side of the conversation but, the basis of my argument (which is antithetical) still remains the same. The political-purity angle isn't the cornerstone of it, it is the ideological-subjective component in chaos magick or "the secret" which is what makes it so dangerous due to its ephemeral and irrational nature appealing to our faulty wiring in perception; thus distorting clear minded thinking both for the subject and the masses by a magician. I only utilized that political-purity angle as a way to argue-within the ideology, of warnings that were placed there-in; whom the practitioners have to adhere to (thoth).

But as it stands, chaos magick and the secret is a subjective tool of confusion and misdirection. Its why it is also exploited by politicians upon the citizenry to fool them into subservience. Same thing with magic tricks, there is no magic; just tricks. (Kek/Pepe)

The magic is all you! But none of it is real.

Same thing with "coincidences" and "conspiracy plots"- a hidden hand, but no magic.

Now I'd rather not keep repeating myself on this topic because its getting to be a dead horse, but if none of this makes sense; then I'll guess you just have to figure it out yourself over time. Good luck!
