Personal responsibility seems to be the biggest obstacle for all sides They have wrapped themselves up in it like they do that stupid fucking flag. Even people who are actively being fucked by the system will tell you about how they need to work harder or started defending billionaires as being so innovative. And personal responsibility quickly starts tying in with celebrity worship and the American Dream. It starts to feel like talking to extreme religious people about the possibility that there’s no single entity watching over your every move. They have been indoctrinated since children, there’s no other way of viewing the world. But you are planting seeds and one day those seeds will grow and with the right combination they may blossom like they did with a lot us.
This answer. Every one, EVERY ONE of my friends except TWO are infested with this. Every one has to guilt trip me for eating shrooms, and I don’t want to live in a world where I have to feel guilty for shrooming
Seriously? For shrooms? What do they say? “Stop taking a drug that gives a lasting experience making you feel you are always connected with your environment.”
More subtle than that. If I DO do shrooms on the weekend, I should really do a LOT of housework Thursday and Friday so I “earn” the shrooms. Or alternatively LOTS of housework Monday and Tuesday. Otherwise there will be disrespect and subtle put downs, or they’ll full mask off, saying something like “drugs are worse than masturbation because masturbation teaches self love which is self care”. Or just little zingers like “lazy” or “not dedicated yet”
OR I need to have something I can show, like “my social anxiety is immediately and forever cured, see this WASNT a waste of time!”
But if I just literally have a fun weekend with my bro’s, that’s incredibly selfish and damning, and I owe everyone
That sounds terrible. I value you for your humanity, they should too. If they think drugs are getting in the way of your productivity there’s appropriate way to address that concern. Making you feel less than and unimportant is not the way to do that. I think one of my most memorable trips was realizing that shrooms give the mind a different perspective. Perspectives are important, but they don’t dramatically change your life the next day nor should one expect them to. What can change your life pretty quickly is you’re environment. Surround yourself with positive kind people who encourage growth.
If you’re having trouble cleaning your room, I have this book I’ve been reading... jkjk
