Speaking at the "Rage Against the War Machine" rally in Seattle, WA at the Space Needle on Sunday, February 19th, 2023, featuring a broad coalition of antiwar activists with the following demands (Source: https://rageagainstwar.com/#Demands) ... Not One More Penny for War in Ukraine The Democrats and Republicans have armed Ukraine with tens of billions of dollars in weapons and military aid. The war has killed tens of thousands, displaced millions, and is pushing us toward a nuclear WW3. Stop funding the war. Negotiate Peace The US instigated the war in Ukraine with a coup on its democratically-elected government in 2014, and then sabotaged a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine in March. Pursue an immediate ceasefire and diplomacy to end the war. Stop the War Inflation The war is accelerating inflation and increasing food, gas, and energy prices. The US blew up Russian gas pipelines to Europe, starving them of energy and deindustrializing their countries. End the war and stop increasing prices. Disband NATO NATO expansion to Russia's border provoked the war in Ukraine. NATO is a warmongering relic of the Cold War. Disband it like the Warsaw Pact. Global Nuclear De-Escalation The war in Ukraine has brought us to the edge of WW3 and nuclear war with Russia. US intelligence agencies estimate a one in four chance of nuclear war, which would plunge the world into nuclear winter and kill almost all life on Earth. Adopt a no-first-strike nuclear policy. Drawdown nuclear weapons worldwide. Slash the Pentagon Budget Half of the federal discretionary budget goes to Pentagon. The military budget is $857 billion per year, and the Pentagon just failed its fifth straight audit. The Pentagon can only account for 39 percent of its $3.5 trillion in assets. Cut the military budget in half and return those funds to the American people. Abolish the CIA and Military-Industrial Deep State The CIA and deep state are an unelected permanent government of intelligence agencies that run our country outside of constitutional and democratic control. They surveille Americans, manipulate the media, curtail free speech, blackmail politicians, infiltrate activist organizations, torture people, overthrow governments, and assassinated President John F. Kennedy. Abolish the CIA and deep state and restore a government of, by, and for the people. Abolish War and Empire War and empire subjugate billions of people around the world to enrich a small group of elites. In just the past two decades, the US has waged and backed wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Palestine, Yemen, Ukraine, and other countries. End all US wars and regime change. Stop all military aid to other countries. End drone strikes. Close all US military bases abroad. Bring all US troops home. Build a world that guarantees every person freedom from war and empire in place of the collapsing US hegemonic world order. Restore Civil Liberties Restore the constitutional liberties taken from us in the name of war and empire, including freedom of speech, the press, and assembly. End mass surveillance, repeal the Patriot Act, and restore the right to privacy and habeas corpus. Free Julian Assange The US is charging Julian Assange with espionage and criminalizing our right to publish information that challenges the military-industrial deep state. He is imprisoned in the UK and being extradited to the US. The CIA plotted to assassinate him for exposing US war crimes. Free Julian Assange and all political prisoners.

I moderated one hour of a 23-hour marathon livestream hosted by the Entheo Society (http://entheosocietywa.org) titled "Men's Stories: Uplifting a Safe Space" on March 12, 2023. Event Description: "Join us for another 24 hour Entheo virtual sit-in. Here we will be exploring men, their stories, their wounds, their world. Come hear where they are coming from, learn and grow together as we examine the men's movement within the psychedelic culture. How is it growing? Who is leading this call? When will men break free from some of these unhealthy cultural roles and what can we do, as a psychedelic culture, to support their freedom?"

Feb 3, 2022 - Las Vegas Airport - Raw footage (captured merely for objective record in the event it were needed for legal purposes) of Spirit Airlines deboarding our whole plane and forcing us off their flight. Despite the marginal inconvenience and expense of an impromptu but delightful road trip from Vegas to Houston (this was a layover from Seattle), it was completely worth it to see such cognitive dissonance on full display by staff, "law enforcement," and bystanders loyal or subservient to the COVID cult. This was not a planned demonstration or attempt at activism. We were just traveling to visit family and trying to live our lives with basic dignity. We treat everyone with the respect they deserve and that we expect in return. To anyone more concerned with our fellow passengers' delicate feelings or delay, which ultimately amounted to less than 30 minutes, your tears are delicious. Let it be known: We will not comply. Peace and freedom, Miguel Duque & Anna Johnson

The Entheo Society of Washington (http://entheosocietywa.org) graciously invited me to speak at their first ever Mushroom Microdose Sit-In in Seattle at Westlake Park on October 1st, 2022. In addition to being on the board of the Entheo Society as well as ADAPT PAC (http://adapt-wa.org), I was there representing the Libertarian Party. It was super rad and fun sharing a bit about my personal backstory, reflecting on the importance of healing and spiritual growth in the present day and how plant medicines can help, giving some perspective on what a "libertarian" is and looks like, advocating for decriminalizing and/or legalizing psilocybin and other entheogens, raging against the endless wars and multi-generational trauma inflicted on humanity by the cult of statism, illustrating how the anti-war, psychedelic, and libertarian movements are interconnected, and riffing on a handful of other things that were on my heart.
