All trans people and all gay people are that way because they are endlessly reliving a childhood sexual trauma. All of them. It's just like how returning war veterans seek out other returned war vets, having little in common with regular people anymore. We call it PTSD today, but it's the same thing. Mentally damaged people relive their traumas one way or the other. It's why teen girls who go astray remain that way into adulthood. Hard to break the loop once one becomes loopy.

They make potentially quick-fix tools (rather than longterm therapy) like ecstasy, psilocybin, and ketamine illegal because the ruling class wants a crippled and suffering society that's easier to enslave and exploit.

I have a quote for this.

We are all wired into a survival trip now. No more of the speed that fueled that 60's. That was the fatal flaw in Tim Leary's trip. He crashed around America selling "consciousness expansion" without ever giving a thought to the grim meat-hook realities that were lying in wait for all the people who took him seriously... All those pathetically eager acid freaks who thought they could buy Peace and Understanding for three bucks a hit. But their loss and failure is ours too. What Leary took down with him was the central illusion of a whole life-style that he helped create... a generation of permanent cripples, failed seekers, who never understood the essential old-mystic fallacy of the Acid Culture: the desperate assumption that somebody... or at least some force - is tending the light at the end of the tunnel.

Hunter Thompson didn't see a miracle cure in psychedelics, at the height of their popularity, he saw it creating problems. And that's fricking Thompson.

Ketamine isn't illegal in the US, there's 5 ketamine clinics in my area. They're just expensive but I've met people who's insurance covers it.

I was once an acid guru. I still have my acid and Leary books and even a BooHoo Bible I bought from Winona Ryder's dad, Leary's archivist. Leary admitted that 80% of his ideas were from the CIA. Acid was more fun than conspiracy theories back then, or I might have delved deeper than Robert Anton Wilson and the JFK movie.

I don't think it was all for naught. I was always a seeker. I used to read a lot of religious texts from all origins to find "the answer" only to realize it's all bunk.

The manufactured problems are bigger than drugs, religions, and fricking Thompson. It's the ruling class and their rigged systems of oppression and exploitation. If everyone were left alone we would all thrive an not need addictive escapes.

I love Ketamine but I'll never tame her. If I had an income I'd get more on the dark web for occasions. MUCH better than booze in almost every way.
