Also Joe Rogan and the Reichsbürger / sovereign citizen hippies i've ran into at goa parties. Esoteric fascism is, sadly, still a thing, has been a thing for ages and i'm afraid it will only gain more traction now that the fash have another functioning pipeline via Q. That development worries me a lot, i'm often wondering what i'll run into in the psytrance scene once the Covid situation is over.
See Prussian hardcore chud Ernst Jünger as what's probably the best example for a far-right psychedelic user - lionized killing the French in WW1, became a protegé of the nazis in WW2. Classic Prussian militarist and ultra-nationalist. When the allies bombed nazi-occupied Paris, he went up on the roof of the German embassy, watching the city burn through his champagne glass, pretending to be Nero. That guy was pen pals with Albert Hofmann, inventor of LSD. Jünger had already experimented with mescaline in the inter-war period. He later got to try LSD and synthetic psilocybin straight from Hofmann's lab. It did nothing to stop him from being a chud.
So, i was at this semi-private goa party out in the German woods a few years ago. Some people had rented a cabin there, put up some speakers and a bar, and everybody was having a good time. I was chatting with a local DJ, white dude with dreads, looked as if he hadn't slept since 1997, and he was on a barely intelligible rant about his ex. Out of fucking nowhere, he starts talking about the Hague Convention and how that means he is eligible to receive 1700 € / month from the occupational government because he's "a combatant".
That's a popular dog whistle among the Reichsbürger - they believe that Germany isn't real and that the actual government are still the allies. They're very similar to the sovereign citizens in America, tend to range from right-libertarian to openly fash, have a massive overlap with the conspiracy / Q scene and recently the anti-mask scene as well.
I quickly got out of that conversation, but later found out that guy also posts about how great Hitler's social policies where.
