How the CIA Ran the Afghan Drug Trade

The problem with most people is that they think in a very linear fashion and believe what they are told, even if their eyes tell the opposite. The obvious two examples of direct evidence to the contrary would be JFK being shot from behind or building 7 collapsing because of fires.  People will believe these things even though looking at the video evidence obviously tells a different story.  It is a kind of magic in a way, the illusion can be pushed no matter how evidently wrong it is.  The hoaxes get worse and worse as the years go by and people believe all kinds of things even though there is no evidence.  The more irrational the better it seems, nobody needs to present any evidence at all, people will just believe what they are told to them.  Once a person sees through one lie, the scales usually start to fall from their eyes and the other lies become obvious.  Unfortunately, things are largely moving in the opposite direction, most people have to lie to themselves and choose to believe more and more irrational claims to protect themselves psychologically from the obvious fact that those in power are criminally insane. This contradiction of course leads to deep psychological problems because even though the conscious mind can trick itself the subconscious still knows the truth.  Eventually the will lead to a psychic break because the personality is no longer whole.  This is why most Covid believers seem so close to have psychological breakdowns because they are in actual fact very close to having such a break.   Their subconscious and conscious mind are actually at war with each other, and a break is the only solution for the mind in such a dilemma.  It is important to remember how dangerous these people are and how at any moment they can completely loose it.  It is best to avoid these people by any means necessary.  They may even seem “alright” on the outside but this is mere desperate cover for the deep psychosis on the inside that is liable to break out at any moment.  Your own personal safety can not be stressed enough about these people.

All that being said, what I am trying to get at is the world is not what most people think it is.  It is not the world we learn in our history books or what we see on TV.  Actually, to learn what is truly going in the world it takes both effort and curiosity.  Since most people don’t even have one of these qualities, let alone both, the masses are perpetually in hopeless ignorance about the true nature of the world around them.  For those who truly understand what is going on, the world seems to run by Intelligence agencies and most likely numerous secret societies.  It is somewhat unclear who wields true power because these organizations by their very nature are secret.  What is very obvious is that what were are shown on TV as having power is an absolute joke.  Republican vs Demarcate, and other silly tribal political games that elites allow the masses to watch and vote on are merely bread and circuses for the dim witted plebs.  True power rests behind the scenes by evidence of the fact that voting never changes a damn thing and whatever the “globalists” want they get.

This world of illusion continues to our wars.  It seems like wherever America fights a war drug production goes up.  This was true in Vietnam and this was true in Afghanistan. CIA drug trade has to continue.  These are huge black budgets.  Once fentanyl was invented, there was really no more reason for opium growing fields in Afghanistan.  So naturally the U.S. government let the Kabul government fall.

The true history of the CIA drug trade is fascinating and is a must watch.

  5. Green Roads CBD products are not designed to treat, cure, or diagnose any form of anxiety disorders, mental health conditions, or other medical ailments. Secondly, you need to ensure that you are buying CBD oil and not hemp oil. 10 Reasons Why Buying Marijuana Online Should be legal in all STATES. While Delta 8 THC and Delta 9 THC have similar names, they are distinctly different compounds with distinctly different characteristics, and there are clear-cut reasons why delta 8 THC was made fully federally legal by H.R. Hempire Delta 8 THC is an isomer of CBD and another cannabinoid found in hemp and hemp extracts. That said, vaping delta 8 THC is slightly different than consuming it orally. We do not have sufficient data to say anything definitively, but delta 8 THC metabolites may trigger many drug tests looking for delta 9 THC metabolites. In contrast I’m using it on my elbow where I have chronic pain, massage it on and moments later, pain simply eases away. Because CBD has lower potential side effects than other pain medications, it might be worth talking to your doctor about to see if trying it is right for you18. In 2021, Syracuse University published a study showing that CBD can reduce pain, but that participants reported a decrease in pain both when they were given CBD and when they were told they were getting CBD but received a placebo instead.

  6. Once hailed as ‘Gwyneth Paltrow’s sex guru’, Nicole
    Daedone was the glamorous, blonde wellness queen who claimed that the female orgasm could heal trauma,
    spark creativity and promote women’s empowerment.

    In 2018, actress and multimillionaire businesswoman Paltrow
    granted Daedone, a fellow Californian with a yen for exotic
    sex therapies, the honour of a starry interview to discuss her business, OneTaste, on Paltrow’s Goop podcast.

    The Avengers star gushed over Daedone, describing her as ‘very magnetic’ and revealing she too was a fan of the 15-minute group masturbation sessions Daedone had developed.

    ‘She is a long-time proponent and teacher of a practice called
    ‘orgasmic meditation’, which has been called the yoga of sex’, Paltrow told her listeners.

    And so ‘orgasmic meditation’ was enthusiastically added to
    the Goop hall of fame, alongside ‘vaginal steamers’ and jade vaginal eggs.

    Paltrow also sang the praises of Daedone’s bestselling book, Slow Sex, saying:
    ‘I often recommend [it] to women who are looking for more desire in their relationships.’

    But this week, Paltrow’s description of Daedone as ‘very
    magnetic’ took on a sinister undertone as Daedone and a fellow OneTaste executive found themselves on trial in a Brooklyn courtroom, accused
    of turning their self-help empire into a ‘sex cult’ that preyed on vulnerable women.

    At its peak, OneTaste was making $12million a year and operating in nine cities, including London and New York, with 150 staff.

    York

    leave Brooklyn Federal Court, Brooklyn, New York

    The company claims 35,000 people attended OneTaste’s introductory courses and events.
    Its orgasmic meditation – or OM – classes promised to help clients
    achieve ‘higher meaning’, ‘deeper universal connection’ and heal their
    ‘trauma’.

    Daedone is on record as having claimed that practitioners could enjoy orgasms lasting
    three hours.

    However, insiders have claimed for years that OneTaste had a
    dark, exploitative side.

    Both men and women paid to attend the classes,
    the most devoted practitioners often joining as staff to help offset
    the high cost of the sessions.

    Ex-members claimed OneTaste not only targeted attractive young women, ordering them to
    wear lipstick, heels and short black skirts, but also rich, lonely men – often working in the technology industry
    – who would empty their wallets for the chance to do OM.

    And this week, the court heard how 58-year-old Daedone,
    OneTaste’s former co-founder and chief executive, and her ex-head of sales,
    Rachel Cherwitz, 45, demanded ‘absolute commitment’ from members and reduced their devoted followers to ‘shells of their former selves’.

    ‘They recruited vulnerable women to perform sexual labour
    for their benefit. What did they gain? Power, prestige and money,’
    said federal prosecutor Sean Fern.

    The jury heard how their ‘abusive and manipulative tactics’ included keeping victims under surveillance in communal
    homes, collecting sensitive information about them and
    withholding wages.

    In 2018, Paltrow granted Daedone the honour of
    a starry interview to discuss her business, OneTaste, on Paltrow’s Goop podcast

    The pair have denied a charge of forced labour conspiracy which
    could earn each of them a 20-year prison sentence.

    Cherwitz’s lawyer Mike Robotti conceded with commendable understatement
    that orgasmic meditation ‘might not be everyone’s cup of tea’, but asked jurors not to let it become
    a ‘distraction’ from the charges in the case.

    That might be a challenge. Once described, OM is not easily forgotten. An OM class involves a partner – usually male and often a stranger
    – using a latex-gloved fingertip smeared with lubricant to spend 15 minutes doing what court papers describe as ‘the methodical
    stroking of a woman’s genitals’. The partner is fully clothed, while the woman is naked from the waist down.

    At OneTaste, OM sessions were communal, sometimes with more than 30 pairs of
    ‘strokers’ and ‘strokees’ sharing a single room.

    Courses at OneTaste – which Daedone said she named
    after a Buddhist mantra that ‘just as the ocean has one taste of salt, so does the taste of liberation’
    – weren’t cheap: beginner classes for both men and women cost about $150, the coaching
    programme was $12,000, and full annual membership cost $60,
    000. A one-week ‘one-on-one’ course with Daedone was $36,000.

    Often these same customers were later recruited to bring in new clients.

    They were encouraged to leave their jobs, invest in coaching programmes
    and move into ‘OM houses’ in cities around the US
    and internationally, where they spent their days refining their technique – with up
    to four OM sessions a day – and touting for business. 

    Out of the more than 35,000 who attended in-person events at OneTaste over the years,
    400 people chose to live in OneTaste houses.

    Attorney Jennifer Bonjean and Nicole Daedone, OneTaste’s co-founder and former chief executive officer, leave Brooklyn Federal Court 

    Jennifer Bonjean, Daedone’s lawyer, told the court her client never forced anyone to do anything and
    said her accusers are simply embarrassed about what they did when they were younger. 

    ‘Now they’re married and have kids and don’t want their neighbours to know what they were doing in their 20s,’ said
    Bonjean, who is also currently representing disgraced film mogul Harvey Weinstein in a separate case. 

    ‘At the time, they were having a blast. Grown people made
    grown decisions they don’t want to stand by.’

    She defended Daedone, an ultra-charismatic figure with a penetrating gaze,
    as a devout Buddhist, and called orgasmic meditation – a
    phrase her client trademarked under US law – as a ‘scientific-based practice with proven benefits’, insisting it was
    merely ‘yoga with a twist’. 

    However, the biggest ‘twist’, according
    to prosecutors, was that the women who paid for OneTaste’s expensive classes in order to find sensual and spiritual enlightenment instead ended up being
    thrust into sexual servitude and heavy debts.

    Those who believed Daedone’s claim that OM could treat anxiety and ‘trauma’ say they ended
    up being even more traumatised by the ‘cult’.

    An alleged victim who was named in court only as ‘Becky’ told the jury of six men and
    six women she was 23 when she was recruited as a OneTaste worker in New York,
    earning just $2,000 a month, for which she was expected to engage in OM with
    ‘anybody off the street’.

    Jennifer Bonjean, Daedone’s lawyer, told the court her client never forced anyone to do anything and
    said her accusers are simply embarrassed about what they did when they
    were younger

    She told the court: ‘I had to be turned on at all times.
    It was really frowned upon to say you weren’t in the mood.’

    She added: ‘I was really, really lonely and I really wanted community.
    I was sexually confused enough that this fitted
    all the pieces for me.’

    Becky lived in a OneTaste house in Manhattan’s Harlem, where
    she said she was never left alone, had to share a bed and woke
    up at 7am each day for their first OM session.

    She then spent most of the day trying to find potential clients, often working until midnight.

    ‘The expectation was to talk to anyone you see and kind of proselytise the company,’ Becky said.

    Becky left the group after three years, penniless and traumatised, she said.
    She and other victims ‘worked because they were told doing things they found sexually disgusting was
    the path to freedom’, said prosecutor Sean Fern.

    Daedone allegedly used aggressive sales techniques and psychological manipulation to pressure
    members – both men and women – into joining OneTaste.

    And when the cash dried up, OneTaste’s victims say they were asked to work for free or pay for classes by providing other services,
    often sexual, that some have insisted essentially amounted to prostitution.

    former chief executive officer, and Rachel Cherwitz, former
    head of sales, leave Brooklyn Federal Court, Brooklyn, New York

    While men who attended OneTaste classes as ‘strokers’ were told they would
    benefit by becoming more sensitive to women’s sexual needs and potentially be promoted to ‘master
    stroker’, their partners had no duty to reciprocate.

    However, former members say organisers heavily implied the women having OM would be open to other
    sexual activity. 

    Unsurprisingly, the classes proved particularly popular with nerdy but
    rich Silicon Valley and Wall Street men who had trouble meeting
    women, especially the pretty ones who filled out OM classes.

    Daedone sold her stake in OneTaste in 2017 for $12 million just as the organisation started to face a string of damning
    media investigations, but she still has followers who
    consider her a visionary. 

    A cohort of them have attended her trial, some clutching Buddhist wooden prayer
    beads and one sitting on the floor of the public gallery in a yoga position.

    The towering Daedone arrives at court each day immaculately dressed
    in tasteful beige and camel outfits. The Sicilian-American, who magnetised Gwynnie and even Khloe Kardashian, has always insisted
    she intended to empower not harm her followers, and that she’s now the victim of media and government prejudice.

    She has provided a colourful if occasionally shifting account
    of the origins of her purported sexual-liberation movement.

    An alleged trauma victim herself, she claimed she discovered at 27 that her estranged father was a convicted child molester who
    used her as ‘bait’. She has also said she worked as a stripper and had been threatened with a knife at her throat.

    forced labor scheme

    To cope, she said, she sought spiritual sustenance and at one point had
    even intended to become a Zen Buddhist nun.

    Instead, she says she met a Buddhist monk at a party in 1998 who demonstrated on her a
    technique she repackaged and trademarked as orgasmic meditation, starting her OneTaste brand in 2004.

    Based in San Francisco, the spiritual home of free love and New Age hippy communes, she
    initially drew little attention.

    Within five years, she had 38 followers – men and women mostly in their
    late 20s and early 30s – living full-time together in a trendy loft ‘urban retreat’ and even showering communally.

    Two or three times a day, they would gather in a velvet-curtained room for group OM ‘practice’
    sessions and pair off with what OneTaste coyly called their ‘research partners’.

    By the time the group first started making headlines in 2009,
    former members were already complaining that power had gone to her head and Daedone was telling members who they should pair off with romantically,
    while relentlessly pushing her members’ sexual boundaries.

    And yet OneTaste thrived and glossy magazines queued up to cover it.

    In 2011, with a book about it all under her belt, Daedone was invited to
    address the global cognoscenti in a TED talk.

    Hers was pompously entitled ‘Orgasm – The Cure For Hunger In The Western Woman’, and she
    assured her audience it would be ‘turned-on women around the world who change the world’.

    To date, the TED video has been watched at least 2.3 million times.

    Insiders claim that Daedone was behaving like a Messiah
    and trying to turn OM into a religion, with one commenting: ‘Orgasm was God.
    Nicole was Jesus.’

    The group held quasi-religious ceremonies such as ones called ‘Magic
    School’ at which men and women dressed in white as ‘priests and priestesses of orgasm’ and conducted
    a group OM watched by hundreds.

    Then, in 2018 – a year after Daedone had stepped down – Bloomberg News published a damning investigation that portrayed OneTaste as a ruthlessly cynical commercial operation in which
    staff, sometimes working seven days a week, were put under
    huge pressure to make people sign up for its classes.

    Sources said potential customers were referred to
    as ‘marks’, criminal slang for easy targets, while sales staff were
    called ‘fluffers’, a porn-industry term for the female assistants who get male performers sexually aroused
    before filming.

    Meanwhile, male recruits to OneTaste claimed they were told to have sex with older, wealthier women who had joined the group to be stroked.
    All in the cause, they said, of increasing profits.

    And in case anyone felt unable to comply, the group
    taught so-called ‘aversion practice’ to convince members that
    they’d gain more sexual energy by performing erotic acts with
    people they found unattractive.

    The investigation also uncovered that in 2015 OneTaste had paid a $325,000 out-of-court settlement to a former
    staff member who said that she’d been ordered to sleep with prospective male customers and suffered sexual assault and harassment on the job.

    OneTaste insisted at the time that it had never made any employee engage in a sexual
    act.

    A few months after the Bloomberg report, OneTaste announced it was
    closing its offices and had stopped offering in-person courses and retreats.
    It is still going, albeit under new management, but reportedly
    operates at a loss.

    Claims to Bloomberg that OneTaste disciples ended up heavily in debt and in ‘sexual servitude’ were
    repeated in subsequent investigations, including a 2022 Netflix documentary.

    The FBI began an investigation into Daedone and Cherwitz that resulted in the two women being charged in 2023.

    Daedone once told her TED-talk audience that she would always advise sceptics to try OM, insisting:
    ‘The worst thing you have to lose is 15 minutes of your life.’ She now
    faces the prospect of losing rather more than 15 minutes of hers.
