All joking aside, Q-shaman (Jacob Anthony Chansley) fasting in jail because he is not being offered organic food underscores the biospiritual convictions of the conspirituality movement. /1

Every conspirituality action can be framed or rationalized as a sacred journey: whether dark night or apotheosis. Pilgrimmage is undertaken by the body, but also within the body. /2

Wellness beliefs shred the abs for optimal outer performance, while yoga/meditation turn the subtle body into a lightening rod for continual internal epiphanies. Pubic health could only ever disrupt this double process. It must be resisted. /3

The body of the conspiritualist is itself shamanic, straddling (pseudo)scientific and ethereal worlds. Chansley calls himself inter-dimensional. When he sits on the rostrum he’s also sitting under the Yggdrasil. /4

Jail time for the conspiritualist can allow for a mythic descent into the belly of the beast. There, the adept can purify their own digestive system and inner being. /5

Fasting can also be self protective. To eat prison food would be to digest and embody bondage. There’s also the problem of spiritual germophobia. Who is handling the food and with what belief and intention is paramount. /6

It’s likely that Chansley rationalizes Trump’s all-fast-food diet by fantasizing that Trump has perfected his inner body, or is protected by biospiritual forces, and is invulnerable to toxins. /7

Chansley may believe his presence is cleansing the demonic state. Odds are that he’s praying, chanting, and visualizing light emanating from his body that will dissolve all bonds. /8

Berserkers who smeared their shit on the Capitol walls were into humiliation. But conspiritualists may see themselves as forcibly vaccinating the state with light and love. /9

With enough devotion, conspiritualists cannot lose. If their demands to trance-dance unmasked in the commons are refused, they can still triumph in every moment through spiritual self-soothing. The jail cell can be monastic. /end

“Public” health, obviously lol
