Running with the torture loving DEA

by Brian Ballard Quass, the Drug War Philosopher

November 7, 2019




Welcome back to the DEA Lounge!




I want to thank our public servants here for taking time out to join us. I know you've got a busy schedule, locking up liberals, so any time you can spare--





What did I say?



Hey, listen, I understand. By locking up liberals, you keep the Drug Warrior conservatives in power and thus maintain your crucial jobs of quashing dissent in America and limiting human consciousness.



No, seriously. I suppose the Drug War was bound to happen eventually on planet earth.


[gasp]

It had to happen at the precise moment in human history when capitalism and modern transportation coincided with a new awareness of the psychoactive power of plants.

[murmur]

We could either greet this alignment of forces rationally or not, and guess which choice we made?

[laughter]

Suddenly, Chicken Little politicians were screaming: "Oh, me gosh, we have to outlaw plants!"



Wrong.

Earth to politicians: you should have outlawed the profit motive when it comes to those psychoactive plants, not the plants themselves.

[applaud]

I guess they had to scapegoat plants, though, since the alternative was to question the all-powerful god of capitalism.

[laughter]

The result? They thereby created such a violent world that we had to invent a whole new movie genre to accommodate all the bullets and bodies: namely, the Drug War movie.


[laughter]


I hate to call such politicians morons, but if the dunce cap fits...

[drum]

[laughter]

"Gee, what happened? We outlawed plants and a bunch of violence ensued. Who would have thunk it?"

[laughter]

Answer: anyone with half a brain.

[drum]
[laughter]

Don't you love those Drug War movies? Those movies where the DEA "heroes" laugh at the US Constitution and willfully employ torture and murder to achieve their goal of outlawing Mother Nature? Ah, yes, good old American values: torture and murder.

[gasp]

Check out Running with the Devil, a DEA propaganda film starring Laurence Fishburne and Nicolas Cage.

[gasp]

Along with Leslie Bibb as the torture-loving DEA agent.

[gasp]

You know, if the Drug War is Christian, as many fundamentalists maintain, then I must have missed something in Sunday School.

[laughter]

I missed the part where Jesus told his followers to place suspects in bikini briefs, suspend them by a metal chain, and then threaten to drill holes in their abdomen with a power tool, as Leslie Bibb threatens to do to the so-called "Snitch" in Running with the Devil.

[gasp]

Oops, I forgot to mention: SPOILER ALERT!

[drum]
[laughter]

Speaking of spoilers, you ever notice that the Drug War spoils democracy!

[applaud]

I just looked up the movie, Running with the Devil, on so-called Common Sense Media.

[murmur]

Common Sense? More like Common Nonsense.

[laughter]

They pan the movie for its nudity and four-letter words...

[murmur]

...but they have absolutely NOTHING to say about the movie's glorification of governmental fascism.

[laughter]

Common Sense Media is like: Watch out, parents. There are some very naughty words, indeed, in this movie! Land's sakes! Aside from that, though, it's just a good-natured romp extolling the wonders of fascism! So enjoy!

[laughter]

My name is Ballard Quass and I'll be here until they outlaw freedom of speech, which won't be long considering that our government has already had the metaphysical chutzpah to outlaw mere plants!



Drug War Movies




Hollywood supports the War on Drugs by refusing to show wise use while always depicting drug use in the worst possible light. Like all media, they refuse to show beneficial use -- and if they're not depicting drugs as dangerous dead-ends, they're at least showing use to be frivolous and dangerous. The producers kowtow to Drug Warrior sensibilities.

  • Ten Tweets

    against the hateful war on US




    Materialist scientists cannot triumph over addiction because their reductive focus blinds them to the obvious: namely, that drugs which cheer us up ACTUALLY DO cheer us up. Hence they keep looking for REAL cures while folks kill themselves for want of laughing gas and MDMA.

    More materialist nonsense. "We" are the only reason that the universe exists as a universe rather than as inchoate particles.

    No drug causes addiction after one use. From this fact alone, it follows that even drugs like meth and crack and Fentanyl can be used wisely -- on an intermittent basis.

    If daily drug use and dependency are okay, then there's no logical or scientific reason why I can't smoke a nightly opium pipe.

    Someday the world will realize that Freud's real achievement was his discovery of the depression-busting power of cocaine.

    America is an "arrestocracy" thanks to the war on drugs.

    "Drugs" is imperialist terminology. In the smug self-righteousness of those who use it, I hear Columbus's disdain for the shroom use of the Taino people and the Spanish disdain for the coca use of the Peruvian Indians.

    A pharmacologically savvy drug dealer would have no problem getting someone off one drug because they would use the common sense practice of fighting drugs with drugs. But materialist doctors would rather that the patient suffer than to use such psychologically obvious methods.

    Oregon's drug policy is incoherent and cruel. The rich and healthy spend $4,000 a week on psilocybin. The poor and chemically dependent are thrown in jail, unless they're on SSRIs, in which case they're congratulated for "taking their meds."

    In his treatise on laws, Cicero reported that the psychedelic-fueled Eleusinian Mysteries gave the participants "not only the art of living agreeably, but of dying with a better hope."
