Since it's been removed I pulled the post here:

"sorry for repost but the last title was too political so it got taken down

im currently 17 and pretty much all my life i have demanded economic prosperity and for politics to not waste their time on social issues that dont really matter.

but ever since i took my first tab, i have begun considering leftist ideology, such as free healthcare, reformation to education, taxing the rich, affordable housing, and putting a focus on environmental clense.

this current mindset i am being uncontrollably pushed towards is really scary, as i am becoming the type of person i wouldve bullied online a year ago

what do should i give up lsd so i can try and manage this political shift of mine or embrace the change"

    toxic masculinity favors you being 'logical', having no emotions, and a 'hard worker' and cookie cutter

      My "favourite" part of this toxic masculinity mindset is that choosing to be a logic bro with no emotion is in of itself an emotional choice in which you supress certain parts of yourself.

        This ties in to the idea that the first act of violence that toxic masculinity asks of the individual is violence against yourself. Young boy children have empathy and share and enjoy playing with trucks and dolls, but that gets beaten out of them by society, and to mature in to toxic masculinity they have to kill the parts of themselves that are "Soft" or else become an outsider. You have to destroy your self before you have the capacity to go on and destroy others.
