I hate this proposition because I feel it also comes from an extremely western and commodity-brained, colonial standpoint. No matter tons of indigenous and ancient peoples have/had ellaborate rituals with a collective cultural meaning and weight around taking any of their (often sacred) psychoactives, you just need show up at a chaman's home, slide him a 100 and say "one spiritual epiphany please", as if you were walking into a 7/11 and buying a stick of gum.
You're right in that it's not a miracle cure for brainworms but I really doubt most of Joe Rogan's fanbase actually took it. It's not really that easy to come by.
Uh ok sure, not sure why you're so hostile about this tho, it does actually help some people.
