Oliver treated viewers to footage of Army soldiers trying to march after taking LSD, prodded U.S. Veterans Affairs, and reminded us of that time A$AP Rocky allegedly ejaculated a rainbow.
After warming us up with the funny stuff, though, Oliver included stirring testimony from various news segments about the potential that psilocybin therapy has for treating depression, how LSD helped a man overcome addiction, and the benefits that MDMA can have for trauma patients.
Between outbreaks of laughter and gasps of disbelief, Oliver walks the audience through decades of junk studies and the closed-minded responses from the government and media that followed, like a Pennsylvania politician who completely made up a story about LSD blinding users who stared at the sun for too long, and aCurrent research has made natural drugs too promising to ignore, however, with even thehave real potential to help treat patients suffering from mental illnesses.
"It allows you to think about and go to those dark, difficult, forbidden, avoidant memories that you normally wouldn't be able to touch," another person says of his experiences with MDMA therapy., a landmark initiative decriminalizing psilocybin mushrooms and other psychedelics statewide while also legalizing medical psilocybin therapy; DMT, ibogaine and mescaline were also decriminalized in Colorado.
While some patients who went to the"hell realm" reported benefits from the experiences, a bad trip wasn't the only issue Oliver pointed to as a potential byproduct of psychedelic legalization. Compass Pathways, a commercial psilocybin company, is, which could lead to future barriers for psilocybin users. Compass has even tried to patent furniture, room colors and therapy practices associated with psychedelic use, according Oliver.
