My own hypothesis, hoping for your ideas and comments.

- Humans took psychoactive mushrooms in the stone-age

- Those shrooms jumpstarted our brains over years and years and gave us an edge over other species

- But it might have been too early for us, our brains are still hardwired like "us against the rest of the world", we lack several evolutionary steps

- That's why we keep killing everything, and that's why we still love all kinds of hocuspocus (religion, esoterics etc)

@Paradise7D hm we're hardwired for individualism; seems mushrooms help us expand our consciousness to be more like mycorrhizae, cultivating symbiotic relationships with one another IMO :) the answer is more shrooms. always more .

@Paradise7D @silent_dystopia I don’t think we’re hardwired for individualism. I think that’s all taught.

@mrgnarchr @Paradise7D fair. perhaps I should rather have said we're hard wired for TRIBALISM.

we can peacefully and communally live within our own tribes, but when faced with outsiders, boy can we get hostile.

@silent_dystopia @mrgnarchr Oh yea, and we see that everywhere. We're tribal folks, we want to belong somewhere. Belonging somewhere gives us a much-needed cozy feeling, as well as (in some cases) security.
