I was just pointing out that some of the more hyperbolic statements of “100/101 persons who try psychedelics fuck up their lives” were a bit, well, hyperbolic.
I read Viliam as at least implying it, or some comparable ratio.
I think the long-term effects of LSD and other drugs are documented sufficiently. It’s just, if there are 100 boring statistics about people who fucked up their lives, and 1 exciting speculative book by Timothy Leary, everyone will talk about the latter.
I don’t think Viliam believes that everyone who takes LSD has a major effect and either fucks up their lives or has an impact comparable to Timothy Leary.
Who made that claim?
