That’s how you get a Manson family with 70 million members.
I suspect they’re not trying to do a good thing–what they’re doing is likely making psychedelics as easy to access as possible, get everyone doing them, have that (obviously) go poorly, and then say "See? Nixon was right, minorities bad.”
RFK spoke positively of psychedelics in the same sentence as raw milk, so I think we’re about to see decades of progress reversed.
The raw milk thing is so dumb. I somehow stumbled upon it on Tiktok and most of them heat the milk up before consuming it lol… do they not know what pasteurization is?
They’re probably doing it wrong: not long enough, not high enough temperature, lack of other basic sanitary protections.
Also, TikTok is cancer.
TikTok content creator and “knowing” are like oil and water. Mixing requires soap. I don’t know what soap is.
A broken clock is right once a day. I use 24H time.
well that’s good as I’d like to spend the next four years as far from reality as possible.
I’m thinking of getting a camper van to do just that.
Ego death might benefit a few of these people
I know one guy who went through this. He was one of the most insufferable, alpha-male, Tate/Rogan macho men, he-man woman hater… I knew of not one person that liked him, only a few could even tolerate him.
He suffered… suffered might be the wrong word, experienced an ego death on shrooms. I won’t say I liked him but he became calmer, he became someone you could talk to. He became someone others CHOSE to socialize with, they invited him out.
The transformation in this guy’s personality was amazing. I don’t know that his social or political views changed, but he absolutely did.I think that if you get a position in Congress / the White House / the Supreme Court you should be required to pick from a menu of ego-shattering experiences before you take office. Psychedelics are on the list, but there can be other options in case drugs are no good for you. Things like extended fasting, a round in a sensory deprivation tank, a trip to orbit, being present for an organ donor having their organs removed… I’m sure we could come up with a list of drug-free experiences that would be transportative and drive home that you aren’t the center of the universe.
I’ve known raving fascist assholes who also took psychedelics. They’re not a panacea, however much you might like to imagine they are.
Fr lol. Everyone should safely try a heavy psilocybin dose at least once. (Unless you have a genetic history of schizophrenia)
Maybe they will be so gorked out of their minds that they’ll fail to implement anything in Project2025
Who’s ready for MKUltra part 2?? :DDDDD
I volunteer.
Best case, I get to see the beauty of existence and get a Wikipedia page.
Worst case, I finally snap and die after shooting myself in the back of the head twice.
I thought it was: snap, live off the land in seclusion and build drone bombs from scratch
Also a fun outcome.
Too late
