Migrated topic.
My friend sent me a message saying check out the article in the newspaper. It upset and frustrated me as i had an amazing 1st experience just two nights before that was fresh in my mind and i was still coming to terms with/tring to understand and contemplate! Such a typical scaremongering newspaper article. I'm also hoping people don't pay it too much attention. At least it was a relativly small article.
 
Wow. That's crazy - without a doubt the most blatant piece of outright storytelling that I've ever seen in the media (in relation to DMT). Shocking.

Still, I wouldn't lose a lot of sleep over it. The Sun ain't exactly Le Monde, or The New York Times, or anything. Once NONE of the awful things they warn are on the horizon occur, nobody's going to remember this dogshit article and nonsense hyperbole.

On another note... That Enter The Void clip is shu-weeeeet, fo sho. I'm going to have to plunk down for a matinee tout suite!
 
It's perhaps the biggest threat to the nation's mental wellbeing, yet it's freely available on every street – for pennies. The dealers claim it expands the mind and bolsters the intellect: users experience an initial rush of emotion (often euphoria or rage), followed by what they believe is a state of enhanced awareness. Tragically this "awareness" is a delusion. As they grow increasingly detached from reality, heavy users often exhibit impaired decision-making abilities, becoming paranoid, agitated and quick to anger. In extreme cases they've even been known to form mobs and attack people. Technically it's called "a newspaper", although it's better known by one of its many "street names", such as "The Currant Bun" or "The Mail" or "The Grauniad" (see me – Ed).

In its purest form, a newspaper consists of a collection of facts which, in controlled circumstances, can actively improve knowledge. Unfortunately, facts are expensive, so to save costs and drive up sales, unscrupulous dealers often "cut" the basic contents with cheaper material, such as wild opinion, bullshit, empty hysteria, reheated press releases, advertorial padding and photographs of Lady Gaga with her bum hanging out. The hapless user has little or no concept of the toxicity of the end product: they digest the contents in good faith, only to pay the price later when they find themselves raging incoherently in pubs, or – increasingly – on internet messageboards.

I was like, "Newspaper? What kind of name is that? Hurrh?", working it over in my head, as I kept reading. Then histerical laughter ensued.

I still can't get the smile off my face when I contemplate it.

... and yet the most read paper in the UK.

It seems people are loving those lies.

I recently watched a documentary called "Starsuckers" and it has a section on the fabrication process for bogus news stories. It blows my mind that as common the knowledge is that most of this news is fabricated or loosely based on information at best, people still invest their money into obtaining these stories.

The shit thing is as the Sun is owned by Rupert Murdoch, they can pretty much print anything without the chance of sustaining anything more serious than a slap on the wrist with one hand, then a pat on the back with the other.
 
As always, the Sun takes a grain of truth then embellishes and distorts it to appeal to those whose IQ is similar to their waist-size (measured in cms!).However, there is an entry on the governments Home Office website which confirms that 15 packages of goodness (DMT, NOT MHRB) weighing in total 126kg have been seized over the past few months at a Post Office hub in Coventry and some of this was for sending on to London addresses.Me thinks someone is to get that unwelcome knock on the door.
 
I honestly cannot believe it is DMT they seized...I mean 126kg? Thats a lot of extraction....and anyway, for what purpose? It's virtually unknown in the UK, so what the hell are you going to do with 126kg of spice?

I believe they have labelled it as such because they known Mimosa contains DMT, the same way that they raid Cannabis grows, and weigh the plant...in the pot...with the soil...and claim the total weight as the final weight of cannabis, assign a ridiculous street value to it, so that they then make it look like it wasn't a complete waste of time and tax payers money, and I beelieve exactly the same has happened here, so what, assuming a 1% yield, what they have really seized (and even putting it this way is a stretch) is 1.26kg (christ, thats still a lot of spice!).

That's exactly what I thought. That's like the equivalent of a cocaine shipment which is one of the most popular drugs in the UK that is consumed in grams at a time. The concept of someone moving that much DMT just doesn't make sense, especially as the raw materials raise less suspicion and can be extracted internally.

There's also a movie called "Enter The Void" based on drugs that has a scene of someone taking DMT then shooting into hyperspace. Not sure if it's a negative movie or not though.

DMT hit at 2:06 into the clip:

Actually a pretty cool video. Thanks ash

I think these newspapers just try to make a big deal about nothing simply because if it raises eyebrows, it sells. I watched that enter the void video. NICE! Thanks Ash. :)
 
A member of the nursery pm'd me some info regarding this story and asked me to post his message, some interesting stuff in it, I know conspiracy talk isnt allowed here but its interesting none the less and its aboout dmt, not governments, lizards etc.

i cant post a reply here 'cos i'm stuck in nursery, was posting to these forums
when they were 'dmt-world' so i'm not a baby, i dont post much these days but
i think this is important to to future of what is going on here.

anyway wanted all you folks to know that 'coincidentally'
there is a movie on cinema release this week in
the uk called Enter the Void directed by Gaspar Noe,

http://www.denofgeek.com...d_life_after_death.html

the plot involves a kid who gets shot and dies
while on acid/dmt trip. the Sun's article is
probably an opportunist media knee jerk reaction to the movie
and a piece of total invention.

also if you google news you will find two reports
in US newspapers this week, one about a dmt-lab bust,
and another about an arrest after a girl dying in a pond.





you see how it all links up, the Sun's article is no accident,
interestingly the article is posted by a 'journalist' called
Andrew French, synchronously there was a hatchet job review of
Enter the Void in a british newspaper recently, the reviewer
went by the name of Phillip FRENCH.


so october is a bad month in the press, what is worse is that very
soon Spirit Molecule - the movie is being released this month as well
so expect lots more anti dmt reporting, and worse is to come
when Shulgin releases his movie Dirty Pictures very soon.

Going mainstream is very dangerous, the media will
co-ordinate a campaign to discredit anything it sees as a threat,
don't underestimate the resolve of the Forces of Darkness, be vigilant.

WoW, tell me who smuggled that 100+ kg ? benzy is that u ? wtf this news are a big threat , u know what i think? i think that 100kgs stuff is just bullshit... government is mad at ppl like us doin it ourselves and wanted to create some false news so they can have a big attack on dmt users... This is total bullshit... death caused by dmt ? wtf....

I cant blame anyone tho, wish everyone was so aware of what they are doing rather then just smoking such substances for fun.. but responsible people like us always suffered because of other stupid ppls.

God save our cause, gud luck to all of us after this kinda news start to popup on every newspaper. :(

Anyone still think DMT being popularized & sensationalized through easy internet access is a good thing?

This is unfortunately just the beginning.
The fact that some shit-head-lie-rag is doing demonizing stories on the "latest drug trend" just goes to show how DMT is quickly becoming well known along side coke, meth & heroin to everyday people as it's web popularity grows.
I remember the hype stories about crack back in the 80's too, all full of BS & peaking the attention of every asshole wanting to get fucked up & escape.

Also, that fact that this story is only on the front page of the "web-version" of the paper (page 15 in print ver), clearly speaks to a target web-based audience.


Stock up on yer mimosa boys....



Thanks internet!:?

Damn i just read this totally agree you explained what i mean much better Wsaged.. gud one mate.. and he is tellin right STOCK UP ur mimosa ffs.
 
we should all try and NOT go to the website. If they see all the traffic..they may think "hey people love reading about DMT busts...lets write more about it"
 
Charlie Brooker is my hero. Check out "newswipe" for some brutal, tell-it-like-it-is humour that is aimed at the press bullshit that surounds us.
