Since it's been removed I pulled the post here:

"sorry for repost but the last title was too political so it got taken down

im currently 17 and pretty much all my life i have demanded economic prosperity and for politics to not waste their time on social issues that dont really matter.

but ever since i took my first tab, i have begun considering leftist ideology, such as free healthcare, reformation to education, taxing the rich, affordable housing, and putting a focus on environmental clense.

this current mindset i am being uncontrollably pushed towards is really scary, as i am becoming the type of person i wouldve bullied online a year ago

what do should i give up lsd so i can try and manage this political shift of mine or embrace the change"

    My dipshit understanding of LSD is it sort of... opens up all the switches in your brain, and causes all the information to flow and blend freely. Makes sense that it might cause you to connect some dots, or re-realize things you'd forgotten or suppressed.

      Check out "Doors of Perception" by Aldous Huxley. As a result of his experience with psychedelics he postulates that socialization creates stimulus constraints necessary for human survival and that psychedelics "open up the valve", so to speak. That's been my experience, too.
