Honestly psychedelics turned my opinion on living around when I was younger and I was just messing around recklessly with them (I mean, Not too recklessly, safe tested doses and that, but I’m not a doctor!)
I do not doubt it could be helpful or useful ina therapeutic setting, especially when administered by people who know what they’re doing.
But we all know Trump is doing this to win back Rogan, who he needs to keep the roid bros in line
Does this do anything if those drugs aren't rescheduled?
This guys never gonna get Trumps stink off him
Shame he can never get the Rogan stink off him
Rogan wants a bunch of legal drugs but I'm pretty sure trump just wants legit ludes
While I absolutely hate the mango and I am not a fanboy of the bald dude, I am pretty happy to hear psychedelics will be legal. It was about time, man.
We need serious people cipherin' the oughts' again.
Damn that title had me very confused. But weirdly enough not super-super-surprised
I really thinks more research into these things could be beneficial. The worst that could happen is they discover it could make things worse but deciding without data is foolish.
The rare W from 47
Please help me understand how this is remotely a W. They are never going to willingly give people good things that make life better.
How is it not?
This isn't making it legal at all. This is reducing restrictions on research.
I asked you, after you stated it’s “a W,” to help me understand your thinking. I’ve already given reasons why I think this is neutral at best.
Why do you consider this to be a good thing, after what you’ve seen them do to “science” and “health?”
Yes, I did read your comment before replying to it. You explained nothing. I don't know how to explain how legalization of readily available an inexpensive methods that have been proven to treat mental illnesses for decades being even considered for legalization is obviously a W.
Can you help me understand how you got to “legalization?”
It's in the article:
The executive order directs the Food and Drug Administration to support clinical trials for psychedelics and speed up the process to approve drugs deemed to be safe and effective , including ibogaine, psilocybin, MDMA and LSD, all of which are illegal in the United States.
I'm not sure what other way you could interpret that.
Oh ok well if it’s in the article, that must mean MAGA will just do a great job
Thanks for pointing that out
Of course it doesn't mean that, that's why I didn't say that.
I still don’t get “the W”
I'm sorry, I don't know how to help you.
I was thinking the same. Clearly not a “W,” just a distraction to get the MLM bros back in the fold. This has zero to do with legalization
