What was it that got them into it? Were you able to maintain a relationship with them or did you have to cut them out of your life? How on Earth do they do the mental gymnastics to believe something that is so farcically untrue?

I was into psychedelics and even still think they’re pretty good, but I’ve seen how little they do to raise class consciousness. As much as one thinks they’re changing their life, it’s more a reminder that everything is connected. Being alive, that’s the deepest truth we all already know.
But it’s interesting that people think psychedelics are a cure all for living in this shit society. When in fact it can also be used to further exploitation.
However, I want to start taking prescribed K because it’s the one thing that has truly helped my depression.

I don’t usually take a bunch of time to make my points, but I do tend to zone out. Which can be irritating at times.
There's new age and there's new age. I enjoy yoga, and the studio near me is on the bougie side, so I know a bunch of women who are way into an aesthetic that's mostly flower child with a dash of paganism and orientalism, but they're all hard libs who think drugs (except maybe weed) are scary.
These intersectionalities are interesting. I think this has a lot to do with monotheism falling off recently and people flocking to the closest spirituality that makes them feel good.
Agreed. It's not even just spirituality - people are filling the void with all sorts of shit. Just look at how diet plans develop these cult-like followings, and how normalised it's become to stan media products to the point of basing your whole identity around how much of a fan you are.
Guess that's what happens when you force rugged individualism onto a species that craves collective identity.
