Reformed Nazi Twin Singers: “Cannabis Saved My Life”

prussian blue reformed by cannabis Reformed Nazi Twin Singers: Cannabis Saved My Life

In what has to be the feel-good story of the week: Nazi rock duo Lamb and Lynx Gaede (“Prussian Blue”), who you may remember for causing a media shitstorm a few years ago for presenting themselves as the cuddly faces of white supremacy, have made a political, social and cultural full-scale about turn. If that makes you smile then the story behind the change in heart will have you checking my facts in disbelief faster than you can say “toke up”. The girls put their dark past down to being “home schooled… country bumpkins” heavily influenced by an overbearing white supremacist mother. Since then the pair have moved to Montana to go to highschool where in her first year Lynx was diagnosed with cancer which led to the removal of a tumour and cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS). Lamb developed “scoliosis and chronic back pain, as well as lack of appetite and intense emotional stress”. It perhaps doesn’t take an expert to see a link between the intense emotional stress and some of the medical conditions that were troubling both of the girls. Lamb and Lynx began to use cannabis to self-medicate after Lynx had a negative reaction to the Oxycontin and Morphine she was prescribed to treat her pain. “I have to say, marijuana saved my life,” Lynx now says, “I would probably be dead if I didn’t have it”. Lynx became one of the first five minors in Montana to be issued a medical marijuana card and Lamb now has one too. Miraculously, the cannabis didn’t just cure the pain but also rekindled both their artistic flair and their passions in a far more positive light…

Lamb: “I’m not a white nationalist anymore… my sister and I are pretty liberal now”

Lynx: “Personally, I love diversity… I’m stoked that we have so many different cultures. I think it’s amazing and it makes me proud of humanity every day that we have so many different places and people… we just want to come from a place of love and light”

Lamb: “I think we’re meant to do something more — we’re healers. We just want to exert the most love and positivity we can.”

The pair now spend their time painting, repairing furniture and intend to enrol in college and dedicate themselves to the legalisation of cannabis in all 50 states.

LEGALIZE IT!

I wrote the original story in 2005 about the controversy over Prussian Blue being booked at the Kern County Fair. I think it’s really interesting that Lynx and Lamb appear to have transcended their early upbringing. People are not always trapped by the viewpoints of their parent or parents, and these young women have proven it.
I’d love to speak with them to update our readers on their story. Lynx and Lamb, please send me an email so we can connect by phone. Thanks! smayer@bakersfield.com

This is kind of great. Plus, it shows that white supremacy is also cured by medical marijuana. Okay, correlation may not be causation there, but cannabis has great medical advantages and it’s great to see that 1) they have ditched their former ways and 2) have taken up a really great cause.

This is great news! As another former prominent neo-nazi turned legalization activist, I’m glad to see these young ladies turn their lives around to something positive. Very sorry to hear of their health struggles, though, hope they are both doing well! On the chance that they see this, if you need *anything*, get in touch.

It’s hard to not be cynical here and say something crass like “they were once fodder for Vice magazine…and now they’re a different kind of fodder for Vice magazine” but you have to really take a step back and think about the impact hate has not just on society, but even one’s physical health. I’m happy that they’re happy and healthy, not because I know them, but because they’re part of our human family and are trying to do something positive.

…i don’t know, the jump from the incorregible bigotry to total and wide open tolerance at “multiculturalism” ,before beating out all racist parental inherited prejudices, seem more like them want get in MTV stock, not a real and convinced attitude by themselves… a bit iffy to me, of course

One more useful purpose that cannabis serves: opening the closed mindset caused by a horrid upbringing. It should be a sacrament!
