    It should be legalized because making a fungus illegal is fucking stupid.

      Yea like why would guns get banned even though its fun to shoot around recreationally. See how fucking stupid that sounds? Things need to be regulated. While mushrooms are obviously way less dangerous than guns, they can still pose risks for mental and physical health if not handled correctly, and minimizing that risk is very important. Im not saying delaying legalization is justified in this case, but it is definitely a valid approach,as long as measures are taken to improve the situation.

        Risks of mushrooms: you might feel like you’re gonna die

        Risks of guns: you and other people around you might actually die.

        Wake the fuck up.

          Im so happy decisions like this are not left to ‘bro science’ morons like you. Took a drug once, suddenly becomes an expert on the matter.

        Guns don’t grow naturally without any human even being around. You can forage for psilocybin mushrooms.

          I dont know how that has to do with anything at all. What kind of stupid logic is that? If guns would grow on trees they should still be banned exactly the same way.

            Now that sounds like stupid logic. Guns don’t grow on trees. And no, you couldn’t regulate them properly if anyone could go into a forest virtually anywhere in the U.S. and pick a basket of guns. That’s why making a fungus illegal is stupid. You can go to almost anywhere in the U.S. that ruminants have been defecating and find them. This makes less sense than making cannabis illegal because it’s a fungus native to North America and cannabis is from Asia.

            Sassafras has effects similar to MDMA. It literally grows on trees. It’s legal because it’s stupid to make native species illegal.

        Why you throwing out a false dichotomy? The reckless use of shrooms isn’t killing people.

        Unless you feel that all regulations (no matter what they regulate) are equal…?

        You have never tried mushrooms or you wouldn’t be saying this you don’t have any experience or idea what you are talking about. Also don’t have experience owning guns we have no respect for your false argument.

          I have experience with mushrooms, Im just not stupid enough to pretend they have no risks based only on my personal experience. I thought we had some sane people on here but even reddits drug community was 100 times more progressive. Looks like only the stupid junkies made it to Lemmy, sad as it is. I dont even know why I kept the discussion going, its like talking to a toddler about responsibilities.
