' Almost overnight MDMA, which became known as Ecstasy, went from a secret tool to the most popular recreational drug in the world.

I happen to know, though direct personal experience, that Charles Schuster, the psychopharmacologist at the University of Chicago, provided the government with the main justification for making MDMA a Schedule 1 drug was in fact involved in a conspiracy, a secret arrangement with "the government."

He told me, the government asked him to declare with no research to support his claim, that MDMA caused damage to nerve cells in the brain.

A dramatic announcement of this supposed nerve damage came on May 31, 1985, at the University of Chicago, where just weeks before Schuster and I were discussing how to demonstrate the drugs unique therapeutic properties....

Charles Schuster, for his willingness to do what the government told him was rewarded with a promotion to head the National Institute of Drug Abuse.....Once Doblin helped to popularize MDMA it very quickly, in a matter of months, the most popular recreational drug in the world.

All over America, and Europe, young people were treated to this substance in trance-like music conditions.

Soon it became clear that the commerce of MDMA was mostly Israeli organized crime, with links their intelligence apparatus, Mossad.... while Doblin commenced his MAPS scam.

If MDMA were placed in Schedule 3, as the law judge Francis Young recommended, it would have been more available for research, clinical uses, and for independent chemists to produce.

But the Controlled Substance Act authorizes the DEA to reject the recommendations of the scientific or medical community, and that has to change....

I will be writing more about modern psychedelic history, which is poorly understood, due to misleading mainstream narratives vigorously promoted in the media and in books like Michael Pollan's.

The true history of these drugs is really a lot more interesting, and complicated.

You won't understand it however, if you are allergic to so called conspiracy theories.

US drug policy is a farce.

Drugs are made illegal not because the government wants to protect people by forbidding their use.

Drugs are illegal because that way organized crime with links to secret government agencies can control the market.

Alfred McCoy's classic book, originating from his PhD thesis at Yale, The Politics of Heroin in Southeast Asia, is a good place to start understanding the depth of the problem.

Our beloved psychedelic drugs are swept up in this government sponsored criminality too..... '

I’m not defending MAPS, but I only see You saying they are, not actually presenting evidence; by way of examples, of it. '

' Lifton (1961) described “eight psychological themes which are predominant within the social field of the thought reform milieu” (Lifton, 1961, p. 420):

milieu control,
mystical manipulation,
the demand for purity,
the cult of confession,
the sacred science,
loading the language:
doctrine over person,
the dispensing of existence. '

Arnold Mindell's work was integral and deeply embedded in our very first broadcasts of Intuitive Public Radio.

In this page, we've included quotes and links from friends celebrating Arny's life, and we've included some original excerpts from Arny's books that we read into episodes 001 and 002 — that earliest series we strove through hell and high water to produce as IPR in 2018, when we were posting episode credits on Tumblr.

Spend some time with us in these contemplations. Here are some of the best nutrients in the cosmos.

Let's see if I've got this correct.

You believe people can't govern themselves.

But you believe some people can govern hundreds of millions of other people?

The world is a wonderfully weird place, consensual reality is significantly flawed, no institution can be trusted, certainty is a mirage, security a delusion, and the tyranny of the dull mind forever threatens -- but our lives are not as limited as we think they are, all things are possible, laughter is holier than piety, freedom is sweeter than fame, and in the end it's love and love alone that really matters.

Vaccine-Injured Pharmacist Breaks Down Into Tears Testifying Before Ohio State Senate

This is absolutely heartbreaking.

“I was a father, a husband, a pharmacist, and a healthy person prior to being coerced into receiving the COVID vaccine ... I would never have taken the vaccine voluntarily.”

Mike Yoha suffered from Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a severe neurological disease associated with paralysis, after being coerced into taking the COVID shot.

He says, "My liberty was violated when vaccine status discrimination forced me into taking a medical intervention that almost cost me my life. If we do not have the right to decline a known risk of death without facing discrimination or loss of employment, then we are no longer free. I implore the committee to vote yes on HB 319."

Ohio House Bill 319, also known as the “Conscientious Right to Refuse Act,” aims to end “no jab, no job” policies for good.

The legislation states that businesses, employers, health care providers, and other institutions CANNOT deny or terminate employment, deny services, or otherwise treat individuals differently based on their refusal of any biologic, vaccine, pharmaceutical, or gene-editing technology for reasons of conscience.

Ohio needs to get this bill passed. Thank you, Mike, for your testimony.

For anyone who has the nerve to tell me that we need to pay for water have a read, at first I thought this was funny....
Then I realised the awful truth of it. Be sure to read all the way to the end! Think bin taxes need to be added in too.

Tax his land,
Tax his bed,
Tax the table
At which he's fed.

Tax his work,
Tax his pay,
He works for peanuts
Anyway!

Tax his cow,
Tax his goat,
Tax his pants,
Tax his coat.

Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he
Tries to think.

Tax his car,
Tax his gas,
Find other ways
To tax his ass.

Tax all he has
Then let him know
That you won't be done
Till he has no dough.

When he screams and hollers;
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till
He's good and sore.

Then tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in
Which he's laid.

When he's gone,
Do not relax,
It's time to apply
The inheritance tax.

Accounts Receivable Tax
Airline surcharge tax
Airline Fuel Tax
Airport Maintenance Tax
Building Permit Tax
Cigarette Tax

And Now they want a blooming Carbon Tax!

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, & our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world... We had absolutely no national debt, had a large middle class,a huge manufacturing base, and Mum stayed home to raise the kids.

What in the Hell happened? Could it be the lying parasitic politicians wasting our money?
Oh, and don't forget the relatively new bank charges....
And we all know what we think of Bankers.

I hope this goes around the World at least 100,000,000,000,000,000 times!!!

YOU can help it get there!

' Last year I posted a factual news story about the US empire's war in Syria and my Facebook account was frozen for 30 days by Facebook acting on behalf of government censorship policies. The shutdown of my account included not being able to use my Facebook messenger.

Now Facebook is threatening to again shut down my account, again because I again published factual information: this time about SSRI anti-depressants (information that challenges industry narratives about the chemical imbalance theory of depression).

Both US political parties supported industry deregulation and policymaking that, without any meaningful democratic input, rapidly replaced our public free speech and assembly rights with authoritarian new systems. The internet and social media are vital technologies in our democracy, and should be pubic trusts regulated as utilities, just like the phone system and post office they replace. They shouldn't be handed over to private industry to become surveillance and advertising industries serving as political extensions of the state department and Pharma.

Imagine sending out a newsletter from your mailbox expressing your political views and then one day going to your mailbox and seeing a padlock on it with a note saying the government doesn't like what you've been mailing out. Or one day trying to make a phone call on your phone and instead getting a message that you can't because the call you made previously included talking about issues the government doesn't like. Or going to the atm and not being able to withdraw money because you recently donated to an organization the government doesn't like.

That is what is happening.

But sure, vote for Biden, or for Trump, they'll fix this no prob. '

' As Fern expressed the philosophy conversationally, in its simplest terms:
“You go up to a man, and you say, ‘How are things going, Joe?’ And he says, ‘Oh, fine, fine — couldn’t be better.’ And you look into his eyes, and you see things really couldn’t be much worse. When you get right down to it, everybody’s having a perfectly lousy time of it, and I mean everybody. And the hell of it is, nothing seems to help much.”
This philosophy did not sadden him. It did not make him brood.
It made him heartlessly watchful. '

' Kurt Vonnegut tells his wife he's going out to buy an envelope:

“Oh, she says, well, you're not a poor man. You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope.

I meet a lot of people. And see some great looking babies. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And I'll ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know. The moral of the story is - we're here on Earth to fart around.

And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around. And it's like we're not supposed to dance at all anymore." '
