As someone who participated in a mushroom study at John’s Hopkins, sorry, Jim, but I have to agree with Elon.

I too know more people who’ve been helped with guided psychedelic therapy than eith SSRUs.

Additionally, ketamine is a dissociative. It’s noire purpose in therapy is to remove a person from the trauma- in their head - and enable a spac to work through issues.

Similarly, MDMA (ecstasy) was originally developed and used as a means to assist in couples therapy. It removes inhibitions and allows people to discuss their deeper feelings without fear or judgement.

The government has squashed the use of any kind expanding substance because they’re afraid of people reconnecting all those things they’ve programmed out of us.

Do you see the fnords yet? If not. Take another dose.

https://www.reuters.com/business/thiel-backed-psychedelics-firm-atai-valued-319-bln-nasdaq-debut-2021-06-18/ Maybe I'm letting my imagination run wild, but don't psychedelics induce a state of suggestibility? Oh yeah... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25242255/

Great tool for psychotherapy. Or indoctrination? Again, probably just my imagination running amok, but I'm envisioning a "dark enlightenment" with a monarchy controlled by an anarcho capitalist elite, serviced by masses of worker plebes mind-fucked into liking their serfdom, maybe even believing they are enjoying true freedom. Wasn't Brave New World supposed to be a cautionary tale, not a plan.
