When centralised manifestations of social power collide with truth they fight it. Centralised power based on corrupt processes feeds on secrecy. Centralised power based on forms of democracy which elevate homo sapiens to our real destiny feed on transparency, truth, honesty, selflessness, the human spirit.

In his Theory of Power approach to social structure Jeff Vail argues that our new informational structures are giving us an increasingly non-hierarchical overlay.

Right Wing Authoritarianism is a social disease of civilisation. Authoritarian child-rearing (aka patriarchy) causes social structures which in turn lead to war and division.

Drugs mess-up your head. This message is carried explicitly or implicitly within every warning on illegal drugs. The warnings are very rarely placed alongside a balanced description of their benefits. If this were the case we would see: ‘Sometimes drugs mess-up your head, and sometimes they help solve your mental problems’.

The War on Drugs is a mess. Preventing harm cannot be achieved while some drugs are legal and others are not – it is a conceptual muddle and hypocritical. Many smart people have been saying for decades that drugs have positive aspects as well as negative. Educate people and let them choose what substances they want to use and the world will be a safer, healthier, and potentially better place.
