Welcome to the Drug War Podcast for Saturday, June 14, 2025, from AbolishTheDEA.com. Please welcome today's guest, Og the Caveman.


Og caveperson, not caveman.


Now, I understand that you have an urgent message for our young people.


Fire bad! Fire bad!


Fire bad? Fire has a lot of amazing and beneficial uses.


You would not say that if YOUR family had been killed by fire.





You see what I did there?


Yes, I see what you did there, Og. You stole the moral high ground by superstitiously demonizing the godsend substance known as fire.


Thereby proving that the Drug War mindset goes back tens of thousands of years.


The Drug War mindset?


Yes, the Drug War mindset is this crazy idea that we should fear dangerous substances rather than to learn how to use them as wisely as possible for human benefit.


Great. Wait till I get back to 15,000 BCE and tell my better half that I am so far ahead of my time when it comes to childish fear mongering!

against the hateful war on US




Ketamine is like any other drug. It has good uses for certain people in certain situations. Nowadays, people insist that a drug be okay in every situation for everybody (especially American teens) before they will say that it's okay. That's crazy and anti-scientific.

Aleister Crowley actually TRIED to get addicted to drugs and found he could not. These things are not inevitable. The fact that there are town drunkards does not mean that we should outlaw alcohol.

America never ended prohibition. It just redirected prohibition from alcohol to all of alcohol's competitors.

The Drug War is based on two HUGE lies: 1) that prohibition has no downsides, & 2) that drug use has no upsides.

We should place prohibitionists on trial for destroying inner cities.

Researchers insult our intelligence when they tell us that drugs like MDMA and opium and laughing gas have not been proven to work. Everyone knows they work. That's precisely why drug warriors hate them.

Health is not a quality, it's a balance. To decide drug legality based on 'health' grounds thus opens a Pandora's box of different points of view.

The idea that "drugs" have no medical benefits is not science, it is philosophy, and bad philosophy at that. It is based on the idea that benefits must be molecularly demonstratable and not created from mere knock-on psychological effects of drug use, time-honored tho' they be.

There are no recreational drugs. Even laughing gas has rational uses because it gives us a break from morbid introspection. There are recreational USES of drugs, but the term "recreational" is often used to express our disdain for users who go outside the healthcare system.

Drugs like opium and psychedelics should come with the following warning: "Outlawing of this product may result in inner-city gunfire, civil wars overseas, and rigged elections in which drug warriors win office by throwing minorities in jail."
