He might not have a citation but I do: https://www.heffter.org/microdosing-lsd-research-potential/ https://www.heffter.org/microdosing-lsd-research-potential/ > A more serious issue concerns other receptors that LSD activates. In particular, LSD is a potent activator of the serotonin 5-HT2B receptor. Activation of that receptor stimulates growth of cardiac ventricular and valve tissue. You might want to be less aggressive when asking for citations in the future. Especially considering this is something you could have found in ~5 mins of googling.

Thanks for the citation, which is informative. It was considerate of you to provide it. Another minute of googling after your citation might lead to this https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4086739/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4086739/ > You might want to be less aggressive when asking for citations in the future Or perhaps we're providing encouragement by supplying two citations. ;-) But it might not have been an aggressive intent. It might have been a consequence of anxiety, which I understand can be a consequence of micro-dosing LSD.

  It’s not - it’s your responsibility (IMO) to be civil and constructive, which I’d argue your second sentence wasn’t. Your first sentence — while the subject isn’t hard to research for yourself — was fine as it added to the potential of the conversation by encouraging people to cite sources; your second was unnecessarily combative and I’d argue intended to induce some shame response in the OC, and didn’t bring any benefit to the community at large.

    I think that's a bad faith reading of my comment, which is intended to be constructive (support the claim or if you don't have support, don't present it like that).

      I don't believe it was in bad faith; that said, it was very much an interpretation, and your use and perception of language differs from mine, so we may just have a different reading of the sentence "Why bring it up unless you do?" I'd note that I wasn't the only person to note the aggression in your tone; I'm not intending to shame you for your choice of language, but instead to point out that there are at least two people here who cared enough to respond to you and let you know that it seemed overly aggressive, and that perhaps there are better rhetorical techniques to achieve the same end. I'm sure others found your tone perfectly reasonable, but I can only voice my own view of how it came across, and how it seemed harmful, not conducive to, open discussion.
