While I agree, eating a psychedelic mushroom is really not as bad as a lot of the other stuff we are coerced into doing.
Not really. Lots of people get in with bad crowds when they're young. If you have a bright kid with a promising future who's about to ruin it by getting into political extremism, isn't it better that he seek therapy?
I think I would get into political extremism if someone tried to do this.
