...we're gonna have to re-evaluate old concepts of free speech and democracy.

Everyone's on anti depressants/sleepers/speed, the chuds are blasting testosterone out their ears until they stroke, weed is everywhere and as potent as heroin.

Add the perfect dopamine delivery system, a political internet economy modeled on the addictive technology of vegas slot machines.

It's gonna have an effect on the national psyche.

Is it a partial explanation for Q?

Shout out to the divorced, biker, small business tyrant, dad...caught with test injectables and thc edibles, and guns, after the Capitol. Just the only man for the moment.

    If one in a thousand has an adverse effect, that’s 0.1%. It’s not gonna cause big societal change even if literally everyone takes them.

    Yet again, I wasn't just talking about weed. I was talking about many other factors, as per my other posts.

    0.1% of 75 million Trump voters could be part of the explanation for the rapid rise of Qanon. That's a hell of a lot of people.

      0.1% is... Really not a lot of people. And again, the q people are usually weird fundamentalist Christians, they're not exactly big on drugs.

        It's possibly 75,000 people, quite significant imo.

        Qanon people are absolutely not all fundemenalist christians, particulary the younger cohort.

        Contradictory beliefs and behaviours are a massive part of fundamentalist christianity too lol.

          Yes, they're not all like that. Also I suspect some of them used to spend a lot of money beanie babies too. But I don't think them spending money on beanie babies has much to do with them being part of qanon.

              My point is pretty simple. You're making an assertion with sweeping consequences but you don't have anything to back it up, just that it kinda seems to you that drug use is up (and it isn't, compared to a few decades ago) and that it kinda seems to you like this might have something to do with qanon. Like, even weed is not that much more popular and it really, really doesn't do what you think it does, neither do sleeping pills or whatever.
