Terence Mckenna -Psychedelics are illegal because

[MiG2880]

"Psychedelics are illegal, not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a first story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behaviour and information processing. They open you up to the possibility that everything you know is wrong."

That is all.

hey man,i can't hear what terence is saying....please remove the sound effect,or at least remake it with less sound effect please.

[ReeverDark]

remember, be nice to me, dont argue. be sarcastic and peaceful, after all, this is a no ego zone, its peacetime. you know - human beings lying to themselves about their true states? if there is no good or bad, whatever i say then, is bullshit like what you were saying, or, it just doesnt matter. either way im right.

[popstone1]

@ReeverDark there is absolutely no such thing as a "no ego zone" if human beings are involved.

[alliant]

@ReeverDark

mckenna was very much against that kind of docile, relativistic attitude.

search those videos up if you are skeptical of this.

[ReeverDark]

no ickle wickle apologies either.

[Cubicle0]

This is the best of the edited mckenna videos.

[lumpybruisychickeny1]

I love when he does his malevolent robot voice

[marleyman0]

r they illegal coz psychedelics make twats make stupid videos?

[mellowmushgrapetripp]

i didnt make the audio, i made the video and posted it, took my time carfuly to what Mckenna said and put it in the description. so go be ignorant else where

[marleyman0]

oh then fair does, its a mint vid, maybe u could just put better audio on it?

[Pedronology]

your video is grand. Y~ou tube is full of grouchy bastards sitting home alone expecting the internet to suck their cock, and diassapointed when it don't.

[metalheadmedic]

no dey r not. dey r illegal coz if twatz like u ended up takin dem, dey mite actually start THINKING.. n c things in a way society never intended, provoking ppl'z 2 maintain independence n self respect as opposed 2 bein trapped in da cage of da wage slave n keepin da potential of ur consciousness at a minimum; force feedin u messages thru tv screens and keepin u functionin in a material world without ever questionin authority or doubtin da recycled education thts shaped ur reality.

[marleyman0]

for starters its not your video im dissing you touchy little creep, secondly i dont recall asking for your fucking opinion, thirdly do ur self a favor and just divide your comment into two separate ones rather than one big idiotic one coz i honestly wont take you seriously with all those "dis" "dat" and "dems" - ok? - oh n i took the piss out of a shitty sounding bit of audio, but if you wanna play internet super cop thats your prerogative - dont be sending me your illiterate hatemail- ok? ok.

[metalheadmedic]

you are an absolute degenerate. in case you didn't realise, i was aiming to converse on your level, as judging by your previous post you have all the grammatical capability of a 10 year old. it is blatantly obvious from your response that you function on a primitive psychological level, possibly due to the flouride content in the tap water you consume. i have no interest in playing 'internet super cop' (grow up for fuck's sake) - you obviously have NO comprehension of the bigger picture.

[metalheadmedic]

..and if you're asking a general question on a public comment space without articulating it to a certain person, that leaves it open for multiple responses. I am far from illiterate.. but that's rich coming from someone who uses 'r' and 'coz' to get their point across. Nice one dickhead, contradicted yourself a bit there didn't you? You're brainwashed. Just another dumbed down sheep with a stunned consciousness.. Trying to explain would be like describing to the blind what it's like to see.

[marleyman0]

yeah right man, great of u 2 hide behind the grammar thing, like i said, it aint ur fuckin video, so calm the fuck down u loser, even the guy whos video it is gave a more mature response to a tiny little dig, just fuckin calm down n grow up man.

[marleyman0]

lol n i just read the other half of your comeback (btw glad to see you followed my advice) seems to me tht ur a little bit crazy n a WHOLE lotta self righteous, ya know for such an evolved state of consciousness like you, you are VERY quick to anger, y i bet you wont be able to resist comin back for another piece of this hate pie, take your time in future.

[metalheadmedic]

lol

[marleyman0]

now dont you feel better? :)

[metalheadmedic]

brother from another mother, i feel just as grand as i did when i first contributed to this comment space; if not, better. i don't know what you took from my previous posts, but angry i am not - and 'hatemail', that most definitelty wasn't. it appears we operate on completely different psychological levels, so fair enough. it is there that this ends. i don't hate you, though. i am just indifferent to you.

[marleyman0]

ditto

[Prosawce]

The message is great but your video is giving it poor ratings

[ArmTriangle28]

bro i appreciate the interest in psychedelics, seriously good to see in this day and age.. but the 'trippy' effects you added seriously butcher what Mckenna is trying to say

[CosmicFork]

Belief systems and ideologies are basically useless because the unique life experience each of us is having, doesn't conform to ANY ideology. As John Burdon S. Haldane said; "The universe is not only stranger than we suppose, but stranger than we CAN suppose." The business of psychedelics is to dissolve belief systems, THAT'S why they're illegal. When you ingest them, they leave you with the raw datum of experience. That's good. That's what we need. Only then can we see in a new way.

[ImJMadness]

Triiipy. Yay!

[noselfnoproblemo]

im so tired of this fighting too. youtube is beutiful. share, dont hate

[P3nanc3s]

seems like loveandbullets is just around trolling here =)

[mellowmushgrapetripp]

well loveandbullets ahah if you did psychedelics you'd prob kill yourself, you cant fix stupid

[therealbombassa]

how do you know?

[mellowmushgrapetripp]

i am assuming this *because i don't know and never said i did* but judging from his user name loveandbullets! seems really suicidal and pathetic and that does not mix to well with psilocybin/lsd the journey is a big reality check and this loveandbullets character id suggest wouldn't journey so well

[darkflamestudios]

Re-edit and remove the sound effect, I cannot understand it.

[pugcasso]

I must suggest that this much effect on the voice really hampers the communication of the words. There are parts where I don't know what he's saying and others where I have to concentrate on trying to figure out what he's saying.

Just a suggestion to whomever did the audio.

[Aufdie87]

Psychodelics are illegal because of its potential to open billions of peoples eyes... Of course there are risks of people getting carried away with them, but last time I checked, religion is accountable for more deaths than psychodelics - and religion tries to promote peace itself!

[mfitzp]

I like the warped out voice :p

[mellowmushgrapetripp]

STOP FIGHTING! i put the audio words are in the description, well for one thing the audio isnt mine i made the video to go with it to post, stop being so negative and appreciate it this is a no ego zone only love peace happyness and respect you dont like it dont comment!!!

[ReeverDark]

@mellowmushgrapetripp its funny how the concepts of love, peace, happiness and respect is an authorised, - by you, and terrence indirectly - 'no ego zone' to further catapult your arguement to persuade someone into your way of thinking... i find this fascinating, how defending yourself in a post and telling people to STOP FIGHTING! Is full of that bullshit ego concept you just used there....'stop being so negative' is defensive. try to argue your way out of it. it doesnt wash with me.

[wallflower1111]

basicly for ou dumb ass people he said "psychedelic are illegal because they open you up to the possibility" that everything you know is wrong! i heard it perfectly along with everything he said you people stop your bitching and grow a new set of ear drums

[silenceofthemovies]

Your the dumbass for callin people dumasses! "Nobody is smarter than me" and the sound is flanged beyond actual comprehensibility. You probably have the fore knowledge of this phrase from mc kenna else where. Besides there is a difference between what you 'know' and what youve been told to know!

[Shroctopus]

whys u warp his voice to shit.
