Left and right wing here probably means different than for you. Now we don't have any socialist or communist parties, the left is only from social democrats, and they won recently. They support gay people and stuff. I also voted for them. In the US, people are very religious. In contrast, under socialism, it was forbidden here, so we are not that used to that. So we are not that conservatives. There are also many government owned companies working outside of free market, and have free healthcare and stuff.

So religion, capitalism, what else do you consider right wing?

Thanks for the reply.

Let's do a thought experiment.

Imagine that you enjoy alcohol, as in you like to pair wine with cheese and you like to relax with a beer after work. Now imagine that I tell you that alcohol should be banned, and as evidence I show you a news story of some teenagers who don't know how to control their drinking and drink too much and get into a fight with police and almost die. Not only would you think that I'm hopelessly uninformed about alcohol, but you would also feel vaguely threatened by me because when I say that alcohol should be banned, I'm implying that harmless wine connoisseurs like you should be persecuted and locked in cages. You might point out that the teenagers are actually the victims, and the real perpetrators are the store that sold alcohol to minors, and the parents who failed to teach their children what responsible drinking looks like. You might also say that it's a violation of personal freedom to tell responsible adults what they can and cannot drink in the privacy of their own home.

You would be absolutely right, and all of your arguments would apply equally to psychedelics.

Sincerely, A psychedelics connoisseur
