I don’t think the world has changed that much. I think MDMA and psilocybin are looked down upon similarly despite the mountains of research of their potential.

I don’t think the world has changed that much. I think MDMA and psilocybin are looked down upon similarly despite the mountains of research of their potential. As a thought experiment, how would you feel about relaxing cocaine restrictions? Do you still feel that way even though there are entire cultures in South America that use it on an hourly basis in a non destructive way?
- temp0826 6y agoI’m all for coca being allowed. Currently in South America (working at an ayahuasca retreat...my opinion on “drugs” may differ a bit :)) and enjoying coca tea almost daily. It’s allegedly a fairly nutrient-dense plant in its non-freebase form. I think it’s a huge misuse/abuse of it as cocaine, and unfortunately I don’t know where that leaves us. People should be allowed the freedom to use any plant as they wish, it should all be decriminalized at the minimum. It’s a dangerous and slippery slope and I feel blessed never to have used it as cocaine personally.
