Yeah for sure, which is why I found the headline so alarming. I'm a big believer in psychedelics and that they can help humanity and that they could heal the separation from nature that a lot of people are feeling, ease the anxiety of life and help people see through to what's important, but this is not the way. Mass production and commodification of things always leads to forgetting the original purpose, strips things away from their ceremonial or therapeutic use and leads to ruin.
