Drugs

But my question is...what, intrinsically, is bad about drug use?

Everybody uses recreational drugs in some form or another. Alcohol, caffeine and nicotine are all socially acceptable recreational drugs in most countries. I personally hate alcohol and nicotine, but I am totally addicted to coffee.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with any of the entheogenic psychedelic drugs like LSD, DMT, mushrooms and mescaline. The psychedelics can enhance your critical thinking skills, which is why I think they're illegal. The powers that be do not want citizens to be capable of questioning and analysing the status quo; to them, we're nothing more than obedient workers and they want to keep us that way. Therefore, alcohol is perfect for their needs because it helps to dumb down the population.

I do have major problems with alcohol, heroin, crack and meth because they have the potential to cause some serious damage.

If I was a part of the powers that be I don't think stoners or drug users in general who take mushrooms would be on the top of my things to worry about list as far as motivated threatening groups go.

Working class people who don't take drugs aren't unaware or stupid a lot of the time and know perfectly well they are obedient workers but have kids to feed and need to make money somehow.

Also it annoys me when people make claims about marijuana or other hallucinogens increasing skills in some vague way, I smoked it for nearly 10 years, a lot. Not once did I or anyone I knew ever do anything like smoke weed before an athletics event or mentally challenging event in anyway shape or form. And I never once observed any symptoms from someone who smoked weed apart from lethargy, slight giddiness and hunger.
