The article touches on three ways in which people with right-wing political views have been involved with psychoactive drugs: * Wealthy billionaires funding research into medical or therapeutic uses * Right-wing figures appearing in 60s counter-culture * Use of psychedelics in modern alt-right groups. It's interesting but short and vague. It doesn't explain whether each bullet point was made up of just a few individuals or was a significant proportion of the culture. I searched around on the topic and found this article which goes into a lot more depth and covers the above points and more: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2021.733185/full https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2021.7331... In general though, I don't think this is very surprising to people who know about psychoactive drugs. They don't necessarily open your mind or show you "the true path", but rather reflect some existing aspects of your mind back at you. If you are already content and secure in your worldview then it won't do much to change it. However, if there is an underlying insecurity then prepare to have that brought to the fore in potentially uncomfortable ways.
