Great idea for a project Kenny. Don't take this personally, but I am warning people about one character involved here who is not principled. I do not construe this as a reflection of your project as a whole. I am copy and pasting this where applicable to keep people from getting scammed, ripped off, and burned emotionally.
@adamkokesh is a quasi-scammer, snake oil salesman politician that wants to centrally, via a federal election, plan the redistribution of resources (not via the market, but via he and his "custodians"), has threatened 9-year-old children and women, and calls anyone (usually former staffers and girlfriends) who disagrees with him "mentally disturbed," while upvoting comments calling for "hits" to be placed on people, and calling for the entire Voluntaryist movement to "drop the ideology."

If you'd like to see screenshots corroborating my claims here message me in Steem chat or on discord. The Kokesh 2020 campaign is a stain on the face of real freedom and voluntaryism.
Well @kafkanarchy84, no offense but I gotta say booo. Everyone knows Adam Kokesh very well, I myself have followed him since he was a part of "Winter Soldier" http://ivaw.org/wintersoldier as a veteran testifying about the atrocities in Iraq and Afghanistan. Of course he's a bit radical as most of us are. Especially those that take on the role he has chosen to take on. I've done it. There's no written guideline to follow, no directions. You "make it up as you go" and you do your best.
@adamkokesh rocks it pretty hard my friend, so of course his work is not going to be all daisies and clean cupboards. Frankly, I think we could use a few more guys like Adam out there working it.
This is not a simple situation we find ourselves in. It takes a lot of courage and sacrifice to make a difference.
To be fair “booo” is not a refutation or logical/rational rebuttal to any of the points raised. I feel like it is more of the same “he’s on my football team so all is well” stuff.
Indeed, “booo” is something often heard at sports arenas and other such massive “my collective vs. your collective” events. Sports are fun, but this isn’t sports.
Do you think someone who calls for Voluntaryists to “drop the ideology,” threatens women and children, calls fellow activists like Larken Rose “coward” or “troll,” upvotes comments calling for murder, etc, “rocks?”
Man..... I feel like, I'm beginning to see and understand the flow you're talking about. I feel like our creator/this universe, wants to create more life and more complexity. It's on the side of building abundance against the bleakest of circumstances. It's so exciting to share with others on a platform that builds abundance. Thank you so much for your work @kennyskitchen when we all put aside our worry/distractions to focus on abundance and work together toward that goal we will really change this world for the better.
"Sometimes your belief system is really your fears attached to rules.” “No two persons can learn something and experience it in the same way.”
With a single post you go through various topics and explaind well! about books, economy, steemit, society, first time I am reading your post and it's satisfying.
"After an insanely powerful psychedelic mushroom experience in 2011, my willingness to continue playing the game began to rapidly fade."
That is why I have been a psychedelic advocate since my teenage years and also why they seem to scare the structures of authority so much. More than anything else that I have expirenced, psychedelics have a unique ability to cut straight the B.S. that we have believed to be true. It is hard to go back to a 9 to 5 job after seeing that the foundations of civilization are an illusion (and not a particularly convincing one). Caring about what stupid thing this politician or that elected official said is not a thing one wants to do after the secrets of existence have been reviled in the form of swirling patterns and breathing walls.
Ah, for me it was a totally different experience. I had never believed in the illusions, refused to let others tell me what to do, would actively do things simply because they were illegal or otherwise against the rules, etc. But I had no sense of self, I didn't like to be around me, I wanted to die a LOT (tried many times as well), and mushrooms were the first thing that really showed me those trauma-based belief systems that were causing it.
I see. They may have different lessons for everyone but I have yet to meet someone who learned nothing from them. San Pedro was the same way for me but it is much harder to get a good trip from and it tastes way worse.
I know that "I'm going to do it out of spite" feeling too but I outgrew it a bit as I got older and there were less people telling me what not to do. I still fall into it from time to time. I hate that I can't seem to quit smoking cigarettes but I still kind of like lighting one up in places where I am not supposed to lol.
