Okay anons, I finally figured it out and as a result this will be my last post here.
For the anons in the last thread who were struggling with monkey paw manifestations or receiving their manifestations in a distorted state, listen to the following bit on this podcast:

If you want a more detailed explanation, read the chapter on memes in pic related. TL;DW is that our subconscious mind is extremely vulnerable to being influenced by visual media and as a result this place and most of the internet is psyop-ing us into being miserable. Even if you have figured out manifesting, you are having your results ruined by all the social media poisoning your mind.
I also highly recommend listening to the audiobook of pic related as it is literally the best LOA book I have ever read on the topic. Yes the author is a literal flaming faggot and it takes multiple listens to piece it all together (listen to his interviews additionally as they help provide a more cohesive summary of the book) but he is one of the few authors that has actual public results and is upfront with what he did.
Good luck anons.
