mmmm, set and setting have lot to do with the negative consciousness
opening called 'physcosis'. In other words, you currently have a
secretive subculture that is often very 'head abusive' and not a
balanced and sound scene for people to connect into when taking
physcotropics...you know what I mean, lots of ego, cleeshay hippys, or
wide boys in shiny motors - playing with physcotropics, fuking about
with each others heads and especially 'the punters' heads...egoising
tinpot kings. Its could be made much more into a positive thing, a
development of consciousness thing....as cannabis/physcotropics is
suppost to be - a religious sacrament leading to PERMANENT change of
consciousness to that of respect for the Sacred Mother Earth etc. So
really you want the cannabis to be given away in sound collectives
like the Exodus (not vegan ALF nazis by the way), and so people
'shift' consciousness to a level that is there for them to connect to
- rather than total and complete wankers, programmed by facsist
tabloids, screwing with peoples heads deliberatly to try and cause a
negative trip....as you find quite often in non city locations, rural
backwaters and the like. Recall we are talking about kids here, not
folks with new age hippy connections etc - local scenes, 'street
corner' scenes - thats where the drongoing out element is the worst.
What you DONT want to do, and what is happening now, is that its all
being pushed under the carpet (drugs supply) and into a dodgy geezer
situation. You want it out in the open and pure and wholesome! - a
good trip, and not some dodgy/pervy/smakky grotty wee scene like you
often get, with older and dodgy geezers having status with teenagers
due to their role as suppliers, corrupting the youth and all the rest
of it. (often other drugs like cystal meth and freebase cocaine (crak)
being involved also). What you DO want is community permaculture
gardens, community forest gardens with cannabis being grown as part of
that, no big deal, just a Mother Earth sacrament. Its there if you
want it, and with the right society, you wont need that much to feel
good and to connect into whats happening - unlike those dodgy,
worthless and empty scenes of current mainstream society, hurtling
towards a police state, nonce and climate change - boring facsist
egosing wanker world. No instead make a genuinely positive happening,
that cannabis can be part of - like a positive mind control factor -
goddess mind control. Yes their is danger with this that false trips
take over - say a hardcore ALF type trip that you can get, but thats
just something to watch out for and tackle ideally nonviolently as a
community. Likewise if people try and pervert this free sharing
reality with dealing, again, a matter of confiscation, sharing out,
and communty work for the miscreants so they play the (nice) game and
don't pervert it.
