My philosophy focuses on the world being one big drug.
Like drugs that people use in society, drugs affect the body’s central nervous system. They affect how a person thinks, feels and behaves.
The world we live in affects how we think of ourselves and others, how we feel towards ourselves and others, and how we as a society behave. This world offers a lot of bad drugs. The drug of hate, racism, selfishness, mental illness, chemicals that affect our health, and individuals that cause pain to others. This world produces a lot of bad drugs.
But it also produces good ones as well. Plants that produce great health for us, friends and family that support us, opportunities for some of us, etc.
When you look at the history of the world (good and bad), you realize that the world we live in affects us psychologically. For example, those bad individuals that created racism, are still a part of this world. They continue to spread the deadly drug of hate and racism to their kids, other communities, and the world at large. They were given that hateful drug from their colonizers. I and other leaders hold the drug of “Justice”. We spread this drug to communities and the world at large, with the hopes of them joining us in combating racism and hate. So when I say, “The World Is A Drug”, I am not promoting drug usage. The term/slogan is used to describe the good and bad of the world we live in, and how we view the battle against bad drugs (racism and hate) and how we should go about curing these drugs.
I will continue to spread my terminology across the globe and I hope to share it with other leaders while learning more about their philosophies. I have a book releasing this summer to talk more about my philosophy. So be on the look out.
Thank you
