For the record there was a mushroom trip involved in some recent writing of mine on Orwell. McWhorter should write a book about how this is the practice of a new religion. The 60s will be remembered for the music and the drugs. Don’t take it so seriously.
I'd like to read what you've written under the influence of psilocybin. I've been experimenting a bit with writing while under some influence of something or other and I honestly can't tell if it's brilliant or gibberish, even when I'm sober. I think at this point, with people saying things that are patently false and a massive swath of society completely rejecting data, scientific method and statistical evidence and instead purporting emotional appeal as fact, we probably should take seriously the academic roots of it all; i.e. the sixties.
