Is this really a good idea with a mass unguided approach?
A small fraction of men today are facing their “deep cores of emptiness” and are totally unequipped to deal with that reality. They “don’t return to the village humbled”. They lash out in violent rage and frequently killing other people in the process.
I am not by any means advocating psychedelics as any sort of solution to anything. My own experiences with psychedelics have not always been good and if folks don’t think it’s right for them they should absolutely trust that feeling.
Your sample size is self selecting for those that were seeking it out. However the post is advising to recommend it to all men. This population might not have the same outcomes.
I don’t really think psychedelics should be recommended to everyone, but I also think that particular concern is paranoid and ignorant and maybe a little bit misandrist in a way you don’t need controlled studies to recognize. You want drugs that could make someone into an out of control rage zombie if they don’t have a chaperone, that’s entirely the wrong ones.
I don’t really think psychedelics should be recommended to everyone,
We agree.

Instead of focusing your thoughts on the best of us, or even the middle of us, think of the worst of us. Then imagine advocating to give that small number of men powerful psychoactive drugs without any monitoring or mediation. Thats an outcome of the advice of OP’s image.

Actually, this makes me want to go to the next Jan 6 type rally with some Merry Prankster dosed Punch.
I’ll make a sign that says “FREE MAGAritas!”
Serve candy canes with magic tea and call it stars and stripes
Always get someone to help guide you through your trip or as you have correctly pointed out, the problem gets worse.
Edit: Grammar is important.
Solo trips work too and violent rage and murder is not a normal outcome afaik…
