In a surprising twist, half of cannabis consumers think psychedelics like LSD, psilocybin, MDMA, and ketamine should be legal for therapeutic use. But here’s the kicker: 60% of them have never even tried these substances. So much for the stereotype that cannabis users are also psychedelic aficionados!
This support mirrors the same argument that propelled cannabis legalization: why criminalize substances that could help people? It’s a refreshing take, showing that cannabis users are not just about personal consumption but also about broader societal benefits.
And speaking of diversity, when it comes to music, cannabis consumers aren’t stuck in a time warp. Sure, classic rock tops the charts at 23%, but rap/hip hop, R&B, pop, and country also make the cut. It seems their musical tastes are as varied as their opinions on drug policy.
So, while they might be rocking out to The Rolling Stones, their views on psychedelics are anything but old-school. Cannabis consumers are showing that you can support progressive drug policies without having a personal stake in the game. Rock on!
