Against Caffeine
Posted: Mon Aug 28, 2017 11:10 pm
Caffeine makes people more anxious, nervous, paranoid, erratic, impulsive, irritable, reckless and restless.
In small does, say a few cups of coffee, depending on the person, it makes people a little more like this, in large doses, say half a dozen-dozen, it makes people a lot more like this.
I'm sure a lot of mental disorders that haven't been attributed to caffeine can be caused or exacerbated by it, from ADD and ADHD to various anxiety disorders such as OCD and phobias, from bipolar to intermittent explosive disorder.
People who're going through major bouts of anger, anxiety and so on, are obviously significantly more likely to cause an accident or experience road rage.
I don't know why the word drunkenness only applies to people who've consumed too much alcohol, it should apply to people who've consumed caffeine in excess.
People under the influence of caffeine shouldn't be operating heavy machinery.
Police should breathalyze and piss test for coffee.
I don't need to see a single study to draw these conclusions, all-most of the studies are probably rigged by the coffee companies anyway.
Coffee is the number two commodity in the world right behind oil.
When the siren sings, the nations dance madly to her song.
It's called an inference and it's obvious: we know coffee causes said symptoms or makes said symptoms worse, and we know people who're more angry, anxious and so on will make poorer decisions on the road and elsewhere.
In addition to these problems, caffeine is a poison, that's why cats and dogs die after ingesting it.
It's produced by the plant to protect the bean or seed from consumption, it also tastes like shit to anyone who's taste buds haven't been warped by its habitual consumption or the consumption of other such toxic substances.
It damages the stomach and cardio vascular system, but its carnage is cumulative, which's one reason why the damage has been downplayed by the mainstream medical community, among others, but not some parts of the alternative medical community, who're able and willing to see it for what it is.
Sometimes I ask myself who's cultivating who?
Do we have it, or does the coffee bean have us?
Has it duped us into helping it replicate itself?
Coffee's impact on us isn't just medical, individual, but philosophical, collective.
Since almost everyone consumes it, and since it affects people similarly, you could say that it possesses a like personality or spirit of its own, and we're all becoming more alike by invoking it, tapping and tuning into the same psychic frequency.
Just like meth and crack addicts instantly recognize each other and their addiction by the way they walk and talk on the street, coffee addicts are able to recognize each other in this way too, albeit subconsciously.
They often adopt similar attitudes, outlooks and life patterns.
Coffee was first brought over to the west by the Arabs in the late medieval era.
It was administered to monks to keep them from falling asleep during the recital of their many prayers (they had to recite hundreds of prayers a day).
In other words: it keeps the hamsters spinning on the wheel.
Shortly thereafter it made its way to the European Aristocracy, and by the 18th century the middle classes.
How many people wouldn't take that overtime, or that trip to Hawaii or Vegas if it weren't for coffee?
They might've just stayed home, and went for a stroll in the park.
Coffee and consumer capitalism go hand in hand I'm sure.
Coffee is an essential, indispensable component of our zeitgeist.
Therefore, to oppose it is to oppose what it helps sustain: this unsustainable system with its delusion of endless economic growth.
The state of mind of the coffee drunkard is the state of someone who's poisoned, who's body and mind are fighting for their life: fight/flight.
Why would mankind willingly induce such a state?
Is it part of our collective death drive, our will to extinction?
When just about any other species takes care of its needs, it rests, why're we the exception to the rule?
What collective neurosis compels us to bite the hand that feeds, to destroy that which we depend on?
I ask you to imagine what would happen if coffee was banned overnight, or many-most of us just willingly gave it up, without replacing it with similar stimulants?
Could the system continue as is unimpeded?
I seriously doubt it.
If coffee can't or shouldn't be banned, than at least we need to become more conscious of its myriad negative effects.
It needs to be treated as a serious drug, which it is, like alcohol and tobacco, it requires regulation and shouldn't be given to children.
