Why didn't you just ask me? I've been to at least a dozen of those things and have heard at least one of the DJs who was there. It's my favorite scene.
However you're not completely correct. The woman who was gang raped and had her legs snapped and killed then was paraded through the streets of Gaza was a prominent peace activist, and part of the reason they had the festival there was to discuss and sympathize with the Palestinian plight (not the Hamas violence, they would not support that like BLM does..), and send some positive vibes. I guess they didn't have enough mushrooms.
The festivals I've been to similar to that one typically have music all afternoon and night until sunrise. Then they have yoga and educational talks during the day until the music starts up again.
I looked at the actual promotional websites. There was nothing about Gaza or the Palestinian plight.
I can't speak for every individual who attended, nor did I find anything about the murdered woman being an Israel/Palestine peace activist.[ Do you have a link to that?

Those words are used loosely these days. If you binge drink on a weekend and cry about certain issues on instagram, you're an activist. If you eat mushrooms and wash it down with cough syup or benadryl you're a shaman of peace. I don't know the exact rules, it depends upon the "activist's" connection with those in the media and what narrative is being served. You could just as easily be labeled a white supremicist.
I just heard it was part of the theme at the festival as far as prayer/talk stuff, they won't necessarily advertise it on promotional materials. I'm very familiar with how all these events go. I have many friends who have helped organize these types of things. I did DMT at one after a DMT talk, they took everybody up on the mountain who wanted to go and provided it for everyone. It was not advertised on the promotional materials..

For the sake of posting a permanent record online, of course I tried mushrooms: lions main, shitake, etc.Lol... have you ever taken mushrooms?
I've heard she was not only a peace campaigner, but a conscientious objector to military service in Israel. Not sure what her whole background is, but I can tell you these people tend to all oppose violence in a very serious way.
If you only see all these modern hippie festival people as a bunch of leftists, I'm telling you that you're not correct. More Biden voters than Trump voters? Probably.. they tend to not be very political, nobody has a problem with anarchist/libertarian types, many of them are just that. They tend to be a very live and let live bunch. I've not once gotten in any trouble espousing any of my political views to any of them before.

Joking aside, although there are great medicinal qualities in Psychedelics, I have met a few self proclaimed shamans in my time who fit that description above. I posted what I did with tongue firmly in cheek. I'm glad you got an lol, that was my intent.

Everybody is different, some people take mushrooms and get the whole "one consciousness" vibe which can lead some into desiring a type of communal societal structure. But I just can't imagine anybody doing a heavy dose of mushrooms and coming out of it thinking that a group of power hungry individuals should be able to tell people how to live their life.. if they do, they need to do another dose alone in the forest.
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/wh...ant-comments-brutal-hamas-murders-disgracefulI've seen some of those statements this weekend, and we're going to continue to be very clear. We believe they're wrong, we believe they're repugnant, and we believe they're disgraceful.
Our condemnation belongs squarely with terrorists who have brutally murdered, raped, kidnapped hundreds, hundreds of Israelis. There can be no equivocation about that. There are not two sides here. There are not two sides.
