Sensemaking Psychedelic Capitalism with Rebel Wisdom | Alexander Beiner ~ ATTMind 137

Alexander Beiner joins us on Adventures Through The Mind to discuss the rise of psychedelic capitalism, its impact on the culture, and the risk of us losing something promising if we get swept up by various narratives for-profits models are seeding into our minds. We also discuss modern Western culture’s crisis of meaning, the dissolution of trust in institutions, "the internet of beefs", and the challenge of sensemaking in our modern technological landscape.

Psychedelics’ potentially positive role | the transformational power of truth Game-B  and the rise of psychedelic capitalism The legal and ethical complexities introduced with for-profit models for psychedelic therapy Who should be regulating the psychedelic industry, and how? Prohibition (and profit) block the generative public discourse needed to address the problems psychedelic capitalism is introducing The power and importance of talking openly about our thoughts on psychedelics and psychedelic culture How profiting through the psychedelic industry will begin to silence us from speaking up against harm and damage done within those industries The changing quality of discourse on the complexities facing psychedelic culture The epitome of psychedelic capitalism is in the language of ‘wellness’ Will mainstreaming psychedelics fundamentally alter the psychedelic experiences itself? Will the mainstream change the psychedelic experience, or will the psychedelic experience change the mainstream? The unfortunate lack of recognizing plant intelligence in our presently mainstreamed models for psychedelic experiences The strange game of appearing respectable in order to be respected in psychedelic research can't go on forever A taste of what's coming up on rebel wisdom regarding psychedelic content   ************** SUPPORT THIS PODCAST   ► Patreon: https://patreon.com/jameswjesso ► Donations: https://www.paypal.com/biz/fund?id=383635S3BKJVS ► Merchandise: https://www.jameswjesso.com/shop/ ► More options: https://www.jameswjesso.com/support/   ► Newsletter: https://www.jameswjesso.com/newsletter   ► Or, you can buy a copy of one of my books!
