As someone who participated in a mushroom study at John’s Hopkins, sorry, Jim, but I have to agree with Elon.

I too know more people who’ve been helped with guided psychedelic therapy than eith SSRUs.

Additionally, ketamine is a dissociative. It’s noire purpose in therapy is to remove a person from the trauma- in their head - and enable a spac to work through issues.

Similarly, MDMA (ecstasy) was originally developed and used as a means to assist in couples therapy. It removes inhibitions and allows people to discuss their deeper feelings without fear or judgement.

The government has squashed the use of any kind expanding substance because they’re afraid of people reconnecting all those things they’ve programmed out of us.

Do you see the fnords yet? If not. Take another dose.

I've know people who've benefit from both SSRI's psychedelics and dissociates though with that said; Its extremally irresponsible of Musk to be giving medical advice to his fan base mostly made up of young males.

Yeah. I wasn’t thinking of *90 million followers* in my head when I wrote that. There are definitely more people out there that wouldn’t t know how to handle psychedelics in the first place. Let alone with a ratfucker like Elon dispensing advice.

There is still the Stoned Ape Theory. I wonder when Elon will get around to that stuff.

lol once he finds out his cult would suck it up he'll start preaching it. SparkToro estimates that roughly 48% of Musk followers are fake. https://time.com/6171726/elon-musk-fake-followers/

I have done lots of psychedelics and I don’t have a problem with using them if they help people, but that is not what Elon Musk and Peter Thiel are doing. They are trying to undermine American sanity because that is what cult leaders do.

SSRIs probably saved my life. Elon Musk should shut the fuck up about people’s medical decisions or anything else.

https://www.reuters.com/business/thiel-backed-psychedelics-firm-atai-valued-319-bln-nasdaq-debut-2021-06-18/ Maybe I'm letting my imagination run wild, but don't psychedelics induce a state of suggestibility? Oh yeah... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25242255/

Great tool for psychotherapy. Or indoctrination? Again, probably just my imagination running amok, but I'm envisioning a "dark enlightenment" with a monarchy controlled by an anarcho capitalist elite, serviced by masses of worker plebes mind-fucked into liking their serfdom, maybe even believing they are enjoying true freedom. Wasn't Brave New World supposed to be a cautionary tale, not a plan.

I've spent the day drafting letters to the FTC with my concerns around Musk purchase. https://www.ftc.gov/about-ftc/contact
