You are on a red herring streak :)
You do not need acid to see the problems within human society. But acid helps when it comes to seeing the problems within yourself, and giving you motivation to fix them.
The transformative potential of acid on society can be expressed in statistical terms. If a sufficiently large number of people were to embark on a course of self improvement and personal evolution towards humanistic and compassionate values, this phenomenon would bring about societal change.
- Nursie 13y agoWhat sort of changes? Why do you think LSD would necessarily bring about more humanistic or compassionate values?
- speculatorrent 13y agoWhile some people do seem to be less of an asshole after doing LSD, I've seen some very hate filled and bigoted people remain convicted of their prejudice even after using multiple times.
- davidtanner 13y agoThey're probably not doing high enough doses and/or a combination of the following: Using LSD with intentions to not be bigoted, prejudice, etc. Taking LSD with the intention to introspect, experience spirituality, etc Taking lots of medium dose LSD over time (years, decades) till the character of the experience gradually evolves for them in such a way as to reduce bigotry and prejudice When people say LSD can have profound effects on people what often gets left out is that one may need to take it more frequently and in higher doses than most recreational users tend to do. Intentions matter, too.
