“It’s true — it’s true in that whatever the mushrooms say they do, they do. And they do it now and they do it forever. There are some really awful documentaries that you can watch.”
However, Mazen wondered if fungi had evolved to the point of controlling humans, they would do the same as ants do.
Now your warning—what if it evolved and got into us?—from a purely scientific point of view, would they do to us exactly what they do to ants? I don’t think so. I doubt. On the other hand, he’s right—LSD and psilocybin come from fungi. For John Kahn, “What we’re doing with this scene is telling people this has always been there.”
