Did drugs change your ideology?

Has anyone here changed his ideology after taking drugs?

E.g. Liberal --drugs--> Conservative or vice versa?

Usually I imagine it the other way.

Conservative or conservative with liberal tendencies -> drugs -> full blown liberal

This is usually due to the self-fulfilling nature of drugs that leads them to believe they're opening their minds, realizing the "true nature" of things, and that love is some magical force and they find the left ideology fitting in their new 'enhanced' world view.

I took drugs and it didn't change my ideology, but it did change my race and gender. I used to be a white man, now I'm a strong independent black woman. Drugs: Not even once.

Observing addicts and/or having addicts in the family enabled by liberals might change your views.

I'd be pretty sceptic of someone becoming right-wing or conservative because of an acid trip or something though.

There's a feeling of profound vulnerability that always makes me feel a ton of sympathy for marginalized and otherwise vulnerable people. The feeling of "holy shit I'm so helpless right now if anything / anyone tried to fuck with me" easily extends to "holy shit! I feel bad for black people getting fucked up by the police / poor people who are in their situation not because of their own flaws / women who are trapped in abusive relationships" because when I'm tripping I'm able to come outside of myself as a successful white man and realize how secure and safe my place REALLY is, how I DON'T have to deal with this fucking frightening shit that other demographics have to deal with, basically it really activates my almonds and makes me feel like maybe I shouldn't be so harsh on other demographics because I couldn't imagine living constantly with that sense of vulnerability

Drugs made me critical of the status quo.

LSD helped me to get my life back on track.

Overall it has opened my mind, and this whole debate was one of my first redpills because I realised how biased media and society is about stuff they don´t understand.

Have tried everything i wanted to, now i´m completely sober, even caffeine won´t get into my organism, I really do enjoy it.

Liberal --> Developed and overcame heroin addiction --> Conservative

Nothing opens your eyes to the harsh realities of life like losing everything.

Liberals are people who sponge off the system (e.g. minorities, women, young people) and/or have no real life experience (women, young people).

DMT turned me into a Nazi

After a stint with psychedelics in my mid 20s, I became a Theist/Gnostic.

once I started getting fit I became more and more of a rightist

Well, it lead to a mental breakdown with the help of a terrible skin disease I have, but quitting and sorting myself out really changed my politics from left wing to right wing.

>now I'm a strong independent black woman.

Well you can always find work at the post office....

seeing my cousin jumping in and out of rehab for five years straight was a hard redpill

I'd say drugs have made me feel less restrained, but more cynical. So even though I relate to anarchists in a lot of ways, I completely hate when I encounter one who's naively optimistic about the world.

Why invoke the Cletus meme if I'm saying something pro-minority? And no, I don't.

Glaxo Smith Kline is testing a libtard pill finally..

One of my family members is weak minded and used opiates to the point where he pawned all his mother's belongings and ran away. I can see how opiates are addicting but he was weak and couldn't control his actions. He went from good college student to nigger tier

Pot opened my eyes to the base truths of the world. Conservatives fight to make the world stable, which means returning it to the way it worked sorta well at some point in the past from the perspective of the particular conservative. Liberals realize that since political perfection has never been achieved in the past, changes still need to be made. Everything else - transgender bullshit, racism, dogmatic morality, greed, violence - it's all just fucking noise. Based upon those parameters, conservatism is no better than stagnation. Our futures lie in the future, not the past. Every aspect of society constantly changes whether we want it to or not; even those thought to be most consistent, like religious law, change constantly. Anything, any social concept or ideology that doesn't change becomes eventually rejected, even by its supporters. No one will ever stop it. No one can make the world consistently stable because we are unstable as a species. Attempting to force the past upon the present is futile. It's annoying that sexual deviants want to redefine my pronouns, but no matter how much it disgusts me that social politics are affecting the language I speak, beautifully - no amount of anger on my part will halt social evolution. I'm not a library, but I'm no conservative at all; the world needs to change. Our attitudes need to change. Our values need to change. We ALL need to be more educated. We ALL need more empathy, but we also have to be less stupid about it. Force is not the answer. Overwhelming force can win a battle, but not create stability afterwards. Anyone who believes that force will win the war is retarded. Only the contentedness of living in a fair society will bring peace. Unfortunately, peace isn't what ANYONE on Sup Forums wants.

Fuck drugs.

I was liberal as a teen, pretty much a commie fag. Black friend got me to smoke weed and since have gone more and more to the right.
>we dont really hang out much

Your definition of liberalism belies a deep misunderstanding on your part. You define an entire perspective by the few parts that you hate. It's like if a liberal said they hate conservatism because isis sets soldiers on fire.

liberal, not library
I'm neither, technically.

You sound like you should take some drugs

We hate you too, user.

So almost being arrested made you conservative? You're not actually a thinker; you're a pussy.

/thread

I became fiscally conservative because of acid. I sat there for three hours doing math on how money flows in and out of government and started seeing the preposterous salaries and benefits of our "public servants."

I became fully conservative from working as a security guard.

Yep.

go back to r/eddit you cringey faggot

You fail to see that your argument is pathetic because it comes from a place of a desperate need to feel included on one side of a stupid argument or another. The most intelligent guy in the room isn't just the one with the most extreme views. Also, you're totally a pussy. Embrace it, faggot.

If the world's population is decimated, who cares? Will you be around to weep for your shattered ideals?

Oh, how clever! You've turned this into a personal attack by insinuating that I'm coming from what you perceive to be a website that's politically aligned to be your rival. You're so cute.

Wait, was that the bell? Better get to class. Run along now, kiddo.

Happened to me. I realized the guys I was tripping with were mostly literal parasites. I saw society as a ecosystem existing around a shark who can't stop moving or it would die. Some may not contribute to the shark directly like a remora but indirectly help by reducing parasite loads in return for shelter/a ride.

Shit was weird. I went from libertarian to Hoppean convert in a week.

>t.every weed addict philosopher ever that thinks getting stoned out on drugs has expanded their minds and not just made them retarded

It depends on the mindset, I voted left before and shrooms made me realize how strong a human mind or "soul" really is and more aware of people just being pussies. Now I can't stand the cringe and complete cluelessness and absence of objective self awareness. You know the gif of the salty liberal girl falling to her knees and being autistic after Trump won? It's just grotesque how they can't control themselves.

>uses number of posts in a thread as an insult
At least come up with something original or clever or funny. I have a feeling you're not any of those things, online or IRL.

Smoking weed , I understood why it is illegal and why it should stay so until the world is educated enough not to abuse it. Ate shrooms and became even more pragmatic.

Haha. Climb down offa that soapbox now, straightedge. Drugs don't make you smarter, but they do change the way you observe the world around you. Even though the drug-induced part of that perspective shift is temporary, you can't erase the ideas that come about. It forces you to consider things that you hadn't thought of before. That's where the "mind expansion" comes from. Turn off your computer, go outside and live actual, real life for a while. Pot (for example) is merely an experience. Experiences make us better people - wiser, more thoughtful - we learn from experiences, even the stupidest ones like taking drugs. You don't learn much from trolling on Sup Forums all day, every day. Put on sunscreen. I know you'll need it. Computer monitors don't emit much UV. You might even be able to skip that mega-dose of vitamin D today that keeps you from sleeping all day between sugar binges.

>Right wing
>Against drugs
>Smoked weed at university

>Now don't care enough to have an opinion on drugs

nigger I've done more drugs in a week than you've probably done in your entire life. Yet still that doesn't make drugs productive at all. Drugs just mimic chemicals that essentially cause states of extreme emotion in us humans, emotion is the state of leftists. You can reason being a shit druggy all you want but in no way are drugs productive and eventually instead of doing the drugs they'll end up doing you.

I've smoked pot and did mushrooms, but it didn't have any effect on how I perceived politics, but it did affect how I view my own life.

After a crazy shroom trip, I basically ended up writing down everything in my life that made me miserable and have worked to change it ever since.

I wouldn't recommend everybody do drugs, but if you really need to sort yourself out, then it might be worth a try.

Haha. Triggered much? What are you? 23? 24? On a break from a college class that you're failing, so it's time to angrily post on Sup Forums from a perspective of feigned wisdom and righteousness? You're funny. You're so mad, you aren't even sticking to the subject. You can explain the chemical reactions that take place within a drug user's head and claim to know the basic tenets of political alignment all you want, but you can't deny that the thoughts you have on drugs aren't the same as the ones you have when you're sober. Drugs change your perspective. What you do with the thoughts that are formed when you're high is up to you when you're sober and have the time and clarity to ponder them, but to deny their relevance without consideration is foolish. No intelligent man is wholly aligned with anyone else's perspectives. If it takes getting stoned to wrench original thoughts from the human mind, I think everyone should try them.

BTW, nice anti-drug slogan there, McGruff the Crime Dog. Also, only a moron brags about how many drugs they've done and makes it a competition of degeneracy with some rando online.

Try again.

Your post gets an F-

>Drugs just mimic chemicals that essentially cause states of extreme emotion in us humans,
And you just mimic the sounds of intelligence yet I don't see you condemning yourself.
Your argument is shit and doesn't appear to be based in reality. Drugs can be good and they can be bad. They need to be legalized and regulated so that there can be better controls over who has access. The immature have no business taking psychoactive substances. A black market does not regulate for that.

No, after doing drugs (LSD/shrooms/DMT) I became right wing though, no causation.

I smoked weed everyday, did mdma every now and then, didnt turn me into a liberal, but i realise im just altering my brain chemistry which is altering my consciousness, so i take things i think of while high with a grain of salt and try not to act on them right away before iv thought about it more. Im always able to come out on top with drugs for some reason, I'm always able to just keep a big picture mentality so drugs don't really effect or alter my ideology or beliefs

P.s i do want weed to be legalised, which is a liberal view, but it doesnt make me liberal, its just an overlap, i think it should be fully legal and decriminalised.

the same

drugs are bad for you mmmkayy

>Robotics engineer
What did he mean by this?

Salvinorin A made me a white Nationalist. Mixed with DMT I became a radical white Nationalists. LSD showed me why how important extremism is and with 2cb I saw the brilliancy of JC. Former communist btw. Embrace your origins. KILL non-and anti-whites, and sterilize mixed while they watch their parents suffocate on a rope

you mixed salvia with DMT? like, simultaniously? if you did, talk about that. cuz, i've ripped the NNDMT pipe at the peak of shrooms, n chugged a 4-aco-DMT jagerbomb, and i've done two 80x bongrips of salvia as fast as possible, but i've never done any form of DMT along with salvia.

Yeah...
One of the first times I got high, I was watching TV, something clicked inside. Bare in mind I was like 15 circa 2000...suddenly it struck me that media is a constant barrage of ads mixed with 'news'.
It really had an effect, since a year later our banks collapsed and everyone got jewed bretty hard and we still see consequences of that.
I don't recommend drugs to anybody; they almost took me away, but in some cases it actually forces you to see behind the curtain.

>Simultaniously
Yep, mixed salvia leafs with dmt and ripped it through a bong. Just one hit with keeping in till gone. Stabilized the salvia trip, like actually being able to experience time during the trip.

>Be Libertarian
>fuck up my shit with coke
>become anti-degeneracy nationalist
>tfw no more drugs and in the process of cutting alchohol from my life

I was weed, DMT, DXM, nutmeg, morning glory seeds (lysergic acid).

Basically, anything I could get using chemistry to isolate the active ingredients from common items.

I'm still borderline nazi.
Opening your mind doesn't mean that the stuff going in it will all be liberal bullshit, especially if you live in a nigger-infested shithole like Oakland.

thanks a fucking lot for making me buy salvia and smoke it again

also, congratulations.

>morning glory seeds

hawaiin baby woodrose the GOAT lsa seed, i took 50 ground seeds in a 12oz of OJ once.

>Opening your mind doesn't mean that the stuff going in it will all be liberal bullshit, especially if you live in a nigger-infested shithole like Oakland.

i suspect that there's a theory in here somewhere about extreme experiences tending to be favored by and promoting the conversion to K selected individuals.

in my experience the right-wing people that do drugs view it as something like the experience of sky-diving or base-jumping, where it's an extreme and challenging time that lets you flex certain psychological characteristics, where left-wing people tend to prefer lower doses of gentle or pleasant stuff that makes them just generally numb and oblivious, and they try to maintain it for a long time and have a problem when the drugs run out, where in contrast, right-wing people who mess with stuff besides methamphetamine are often even relieved when the drugs are over or gone, with the attitude being, 'i've had enough of THAT shit for a while!'

Buy Salvia? Grow it. Pick it. Don't buy it. Your dealer is laughing at you.

so wait, you weren't smoking concentrated extracts? just the straight dried leaf or whatever?

yeah kind of, I didn't really care when I used to smoke a lot of weed, I was going with the consensus and I shifted more to the right when I quit and looked into politics. The inefficiency of the war on drugs made me question governments a lot too.
also MDMA and LSD made me kinda gay

I could see how MDMA might make you a little gay, but LSD? I'm 2 busy being fascinated by ants going about their business to care about sex.

and I've jerked off on tabs before, ejaculation was painful and scary.

Nj itself is a hard red pill.
>live too close to others
>harsh "liberal" laws on guns and anything else fun
>high as fuck taxes to sponsor dopeheads in camden Newark Trenton etc
> can't even leave without paying (exit tax)
The only reason drugs make people liberals is because republicans are vocal about it.

I've never tried it, but I know it's not illegal to grow at home as a flower. I also know the plant can be smoked, so concentrates aren't necessary, but probably more effective and pleasant. I actually didn't know the concentrates for Salvia were even available.

A friend of mine grows it. He has offered me some, but says it's really intense and short-lived as a high, and the recovery sucks, so I just haven't been really interested.

Was a Bernie supporting socialist before I got a weed card. Started smoking and slowly become more and more right wing. Now I believe in Libertarianism in times of peace and prosperity and fascism during times of stress and war. Don't give much shit about race but I don't ignore racial differences.

The very last thing you said applies to me 100%.
FYI

>Now I believe in Libertarianism in times of peace and prosperity and fascism during times of stress and war. Don't give much shit about race but I don't ignore racial differences.
This seems like a decent approach.

Pretty much everyone I know says a shroom trip helped them look at their life more objectively

I used pot, chloroform and MDMA. It's empty pleasure, unlike praying or working out. So yes, they made me way more conservative.

Well the first time I took acid I asked myself "what if I wasn't 100% straight?" While I had never thought about it before that. The question just popped into my head.
Might have nothing to do with LSD though, I just somehow thought about it for the first time when I was high, which made it weird

My first taste of drugs made me full on "fuck the system, drugs are the future" asshole. I wasted a few years of my life like this. After a few heavy psychedelic trips though, I started to get more into esotericism, the occult, meditation. I realized that certain things were hidden for a reason, and that not everyone is ready for what is out there. I also got the message, and hung up the proverbial phone. No more drugs for me, for a few years now. I also quit cigarettes, and don't drink more than a glass of wine with special meals. Coming out the other side opened my eyes to what kind of life I was leading, and what kind of people are still stuck there. This newfound appreciation for tradition and ambition, combined with a history of psychedelic occultism, lead me to Evola territory without much ado.

This is the short story, or, how 40+ different substances in 2 years was a trial by fire and turned me from a communist punk into an esoteric fascist and you can too. Ride on, kids.

The only problem with libertarianism is that industry takes over. The utter downside of libertarianism is that the actual working people will get fucked harder than they ever have in history. It's no wonder corporate America supports it.

Loving the Caravan palace user

Youre still retarded though. Fascists dont give up power just becaus theres peace.

the two or three times that occasional drinking became too frequent for me, to the point that i was drunk most of the day three days in a row and actually liked it, i solved the problem by getting a big bottle of everclear 195 proof stuff.

a few days after being left alone in a room with the everclear will cure me of any desire to drink alcohol for about six months to a year.

yeah that's some good shit.

cute boys

he's smarter than you because he's capable of envisioning an elastic constitution that could automatically modulate in order to face threats as a society and then enjoy prosperity and maximize structural and scientific progress once it's dealt with. it's actually a really good idea.

and imagining how something could go right is orders of magnitudes more difficult than imagining how something can go wrong.

Drugs are just a tool, its how they're used but disallowing them and not allowing people to explore their own consciousness is retarded and just feeds the black markets

shrooms for the masses

After you eat enough red pills taking hallucinogens will put you in such a state of paranoia you will be boarderline psychosis. I ate acid plenty in high school and would just geek out and occasionally have some insights but nothing spectacular. I ate acid in my mid twenties after taking the red pill and all I could think about when tripping was how many government watch lists I'm probably on, xkeyscore, the Jewish elite pedophiles, and free masons and how we are brainwashed through the Media and music industry. I thought I was being followed by the ZOG and then were watching me through my phone camera etc. wouldn't recommend, the meme that acid opens your mind to endless secrets of the universe is purpotrated by retard hippies. I've learned way more from studying math,physics, astronomy, and sacred gemotry than from taking any drugs.

Oy

>After you eat enough red pills taking hallucinogens will put you in such a state of paranoia you will be boarderline psychosis.

this happened to me, too. during the last summer before trump was elected, i spent about a month doing DMT all day every day and the last week of that consisted of my computer talking to me, the NSA delivering psychic transmissions to make me a secret agent, and reading peoples thoughts by looking at them (this actually seemed to work, people thought it was a party trick).

anyways, i saw judge jeanine get on fox that first time, and like, start ra-raing about all sorts of stuff during that protest where some people got stabbed, and i went off the hook and thought the civil war had begun and i spent the next two days lurking in fields of corn and woods looking for signs of society having crumbled, such as russian jets bombing the overpasses.

of course once the DMT go out of my system I just had a really nice tan and some bug bites. good times. i think that what happened there was 25 years of pent up schizo-fundamentalist conspiro-apocalypticism from my fucked up step father and mother as a poor little weirdo kid just came out like one big constipated shit. felt better afterwards, too.

DMT doesn't work like that

LSD changed my life. Only took 2 times, and im good. Better than shrooms by far.

Whew lad what you described happened around the same time and sounds like the exact same kinds of experiences I had. What triggered the whole psychosis was a fucking thread on Sup Forums I was reading right as I started peaking about how the elites would use acid in an mkultra type program on modern people. On top of my already Sup Forums fueled paranoia about the elites and ZOG I had some /x/ delusions thrown in where I thought I was possessed by a demon and that dead people and demons where communicating to me through music and the media.

Some people take LSD and have "ego death". They cant differentiate between natural and unnatural, strong and weak, sustainable and foolish, so they just want everything to be loving and equal and happy.
Other people have very bad trips, and as their brains are getting smashed by the cosmos they realize that some things are simply better than others, and there is nothing in this world that cannot be made better.

Completely false. The more visionary substances allow oneself to sidestep their own ego and look at reality/existence and their own lives from a fresh and more objective viewpoint. But they are merely a tool, hence why many retards can do mushrooms and never have a worthwhile psychedelic experience.

I've done most of them and sometimes in pretty absurd amounts.

>objective self awareness
That is a complete oxymoron.

it gets pretty interesting

obviously it does, leaf. there are zero people in the world who know more about DMT or who have done more than me.
