“But in the 1960s, psychedelics were banned, not because they were dangerous, but for political reasons.

“The fact that psychedelics are about to become medicines shows that they should never have been banned in the first place—probably not even for recreational use, but certainly not as medicines. There are 50 years’ worth of people with mental illnesses and addictions who have been denied the best treatment that could have been available.”
