    Wasn’t he supposed to legalize psychedelics for medical research? Literally the only fucking good thing he’s talked about doing and he hasn’t.

        Synthetic psilocybin? They’re not just… Treating patients with what we know works already?

        Jesus you know what, I should know better. They’re gonna fuck this up until they find something that’s addictive that you have to take the rest of your life for it to work, or a treatment that forces you to take other drugs of theirs to treat its symptoms.

        The one amazing thing about psychedelics is they can be a literal cure that you take once, and capitalism abhors a cure. They’ll take a molecule out of it and fuck this whole thing up to make as big a profit as possible.
