Drug Warriors Anonymous

a new group for those who have been brainwashed by drug war propaganda

by Ballard Quass, the Drug War Philosopher





January 29, 2023



s a foe of the childish War on Drugs, I am always casting about for a way to really make a difference in ending this nightmare, and today I have hit upon an idea that I think could really make a difference -- with the help of people like yourself, that is. I hereby propose that Americans (and westerners in general) begin coming together in groups called 'Drug Warriors Anonymous,' to expose and discuss the many unacknowledged downsides of Drug War prohibition as well as the way in which we are all brainwashed on a daily basis by Drug War propaganda, first and foremost by the fact that positive stories about drug use are never published today in books, movies and other media.

That's it. I cannot advocate that we get together to use drugs sensibly, thanks to drug laws, but I can suggest that we get together to 'hate on the Drug War' and clearly enunciate all the ways that it is destroying democracy and rendering life miserable -- even resulting in unnecessary suicides and shock therapy for the depressed who could have been cheered up by a wide variety of drugs that America prefers to demonize rather than to use for the benefit of humanity.

Any person who fears that such a group would quickly run out of topics is a person who does not understand the full injustice of the Drug War, how its hateful and childish ideology affects every aspect of American life. To get the cogs turning for those seeking to organize such get-togethers as I recommend under the title of 'Drug Warriors Anonymous,' here are some suggested topics for discussion.




These are just a few topics that come instantly to mind. Feel free to browse this website for many, many more suggestions. If your group is philosophically inclined, they might want to discuss a series of meetings to discuss the following topic: 'How scientists collaborate with the War on Drugs by insisting that materialist scientists are the experts when it comes to mind and mood medicine.'

Hint: They collaborate by insisting that all drug benefits be established on a quantifiable basis -- which means, in practical terms, that they are blind to all glaringly obvious benefits of drug use. Soma inspired the Hindu religion and laughing gas makes the depressed -- and everybody else -- laugh, and yet our materialists will agree with the DEA that these substances have no positive uses whatsoever? Why? Because of their inhumane philosophy of behaviorism, which tells them that all that counts is quantifiable data.

Please, get started today. Hold a meeting for Drug Warriors Anonymous in your neighborhood. Let me know how it goes. Contact Brian @ quass@quass.com.



Here's the recording of one possible meeting of Drug Warriors Anonymous.

Some Tweets against the hateful war on drugs

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.
Psychedelics and entheogens should be freely available to all dementia patients. These medicines can increase neuronal plasticity and even grow new neurons. Besides, they can inspire and elate -- or do we puritans feel that our loved ones have no right to peace of mind?
Over 45% of traumatic brain injuries are caused by horseback riding (ABC News). Tell your representatives to outlaw horseback riding and make it a federal offence to teach a child how to ride! Brought to you by the Partnership for a Death Free America.
Peyote advocates should be drug legalization advocates. Otherwise, they're involved in special pleading which is bound to result in absurd laws, such as "Plant A can be used in a religion but not plant B," or "Person A can belong to such a religion but person B cannot."
I hope that scientists will eventually find the prohibition gene so that we can eradicate this superstitious way of thinking from humankind. "Ug! Drugs bad! Drugs not good for anyone, anywhere, at any dose, for any reason, ever! Ug!"
This is the "Oprah fallacy," which has led to so much suffering. She told women they were fools if they accepted a drink from a man. That's crazy. If we are terrified by such a statistically improbable event, we should be absolutely horrified by horses and skateboards.
Opium is a godsend, as folks like Galen, Avicenna and Paracelsus knew. The drug war has facilitated a nightmare by outlawing peaceable use at home and making safe use almost impossible.
"The Legislature deliberately determines to distrust the very people who are legally responsible for the physical well-being of the nation, and puts them under the thumb of the police, as if they were potential criminals." -- Aleister Crowley on drug laws
Now the folks who helped Matthew get Ketamine must be sacrificed on the altar of the Drug War, lest people start thinking that the Drug War itself was at fault.y
The Drug War is the ultimate example of strategic fearmongering by self-interested politicians.

For more information about America's disgraceful drug war, which is anti-patient, anti-minority, anti-scientific, anti-mother nature, imperialistic, the establishment of the Christian Science religion, a violation of the natural law upon which America was founded, and a childish and counterproductive way of looking at the world, one which causes all of the problems that it purports to solve, and then some, visit the drug war philosopher, at abolishTheDEA.com.
