Anyway obviously Hamas are a bunch of deranged freaks for taking some stimulants before going into battle. Unlike our wholesome IOF doing peaceful and cool drugs.

Proves once and for all that psychedelics don't actually make you a good person.

I wish a very traumatizing trip upon this occupier when a rain of missiles begins flying.

    This sounds like a great way to get extremely brutal PTSD when something bad happens

      Yeah, for those who don't know, LSD increases nueroplasticity. As in, it makes it easier to train your brain into new patterns: it makes it more like a toddler brain.

      So just like ACEs are more impactful at younger ages, war trauma hits harder on LSD

        So should people be learning difficult math and new languages and reading theory while high on LSD?

          Can't hurt to try, but also, I've had things I'm studying click while I was tripping

          That was literally my first thought, too. Like, LSD will make me learn better? Why the hell haven't I heard this before

          Not while obviously, but I think the couple days afterwards would be best

          sadly reading is hard on lsd because all the other departments of your brain are vying for attention too

        The guy's a conscript. He's forced to be a soldier. IMO he's a victim too.

          No he's not. He could flee the country, he could go to prison, he could permanently injure himsel. There are many ways to simply not be a footsoldier for a genocidal regime.

          In case you weren't aware, there was an israeli Taylor Swift fan who ran a fan account on Twitter who famously went to prison rather than participate in genocide.

            True I would refuse too. But I know I'm particularly anti-authoritarian. I can imagine this would be a big deal for some young people especially with family and social pressure going on.

            It's not? When I was young in the Netherlands it was a big deal. Luckily I got disqualified on the medical.

            But I would have expected it to be a huge deal in Israel.
