There's undoubtedly shared aspects of reality and I don't think anyone seriously thinks psychedelics can produce water in a desert. I think the main benefit is psychedelics show you a different mental perspective on objective

And no one is entitled to continually live in an unchanging, ungrowing, ever-appreciating in value community that is the same as 1970. We all live in a society. Though I am sympathetic to your argument too. Not everyone can live in manhat

How about regulations so they can't avoid taxes? For every dollar invested in the IRS, $3-6 could be gained. Please elaborate on why you think it's okay for rich people to avoid taxes.

Suicide is one of the top causes of death for people under 55. Suicides are overwhelmingly male (4:1). I think exploitation of lonely men absolutely has consequences. None of this downplays the consequences for women in online sex work h

They are wrong to do it because it convinces millions of uneducated Americans that it's all rigged and their vote doesn't matter. Here are investigators debunking most of the voter fraud allegations thus far. https://

Trump also barely won MI, WI, and PA last time. No was nitpicking vote result curves at that time.. I'm sure they were equally as strange.
