Is it OK if I bring a part of that thread into this one? You said: > It is irresponsible and inappropriate to promote drugs (LSD or whatever). And off-topic for Hacker News. There are people who unstable, who have internal emotional conflicts, etc. For them drug use may be a catastrophe. I would agree with the latter, and only half of the former. Yes, you are absolutely right that for some people in some circumstances drugs like psychedelics can lead to real harm. But that is true of virtually all drugs. Let's dive deeper into the first sentence: > It is irresponsible and inappropriate to promote drugs (LSD or whatever). If you meant that literally, then you also believe that it is irresponsible and inappropriate to promote aspirin and caffeine. Do you believe that? If not, you are not being consistent, and what you really meant to have said is that it is irresponsible and inappropriate to promote some drugs. Well, which ones and why? Think about this in a larger context, and maybe actually consider reading the article. I read your post and the article both, and I think there's a lot in the article that, if you read it with a clear mind, you will find yourself agreeing with.
