Lysergic Pondering

[NoloG]

IF, it were possible to give the whole world LSD at the same time. What would happen. I think only the wisest brains would make it out alive. What would the ratio be about?

What would happen.

Then everyone would be tripping on LSD and this would still be a silly thread.

I think only the wisest brains would make it out alive.

Why? Would LSD suddenly become hugely more toxic? Or would it suddenly become hugely more likely to cause violent behaviour? Or is this a silly thread?

I would assume everyone besides those with abnormal reaction to LSD physically or psychologically wouldn't be at any risk of dying unless shitty decision making is involved outside of a psychotic state (psychotic state falls under abnormal psychological reaction, as it isn't extremely common). Intelligence really doesn't have much to do with ones ability to experience LSD and get something out of it. Psychedelic drugs manifest altered states out of ones own physiology, and the insights can be positive or negative for anyone depending on whether one takes them with a grain of salt and uses them appropriately.
