Disclaimer: I'm not a troll, I used to be very (too) active on GZD here and on reddit. Feel free to search through my history here or on reddit over 1 month ago. There's also this using Pushshift. Regarding my name "Pinkeston" because the trueanon people kept pointing that out. It's a play on words from the 1996 Weezer album "Pinkerton" (which I used to love but can't listen to anymore because it's incelly) but it's "pinkest" so it's more "pink" than "pinker". I never knew of the "American private security guard and detective agency" when I chose this username 4 years ago
About 3-4 weeks ago I double steeped about 6g of shrooms to make a ridiculously strong tea, and while there's so much about that trip that I could write about, I just want to talk about the title. I wanted to post this earlier but waited this long because there's always an afterglow where you're still affected by the drugs but that completely went away after only 2 days for me and I still feel the same or possibly even stronger as I did immediately after the trip
During the trip, I thought about the Russia Ukraine war since that's kind of always on my mind and I imagined all the suffering that was occurring on the land. For a very slight bit I was dropped in the middle of the war field on the ground and experienced all the destruction and death around me and I cried and wept for all the victims that are experiencing Hell RIGHT NOW
I realized that resisting and escalating tensions can only lead to more harm and suffering. The fighting will never end. The total amount of deaths and pain caused worldwide in 100 years of resistance will be mountains higher than no resistance at all
Violence only breeds more violence. No matter what the politics are (NATO expansion, Azov massacres in Donbas, etc.), you can't solve those issues with just more war
The only way to create a peaceful just world is to change it through companionship and love. Forcefully submitting others to your will only creates more suffering and oppression that will result in never ending cycles
Revolutionaries who have overthrown kings and dictators, workers that have forced their company's hand by going on strikes, and even people who have gone against their employer/state by leaking secrets like Snowden, Manning, and Assange
I can respect their well-meaning intentions but all of these only contribute or create new problems that are the exact same ones they were trying to solve
I'm asking all of you to please consider and realize all the harm you'd be doing by even just unionizing at work. It's a slippery slope to mass destruction and suffering. No more resisting for the sake of EVERYBODY
Make love not war
"Take your bloody time"
Lmao ya fucking britbong
