He is more relevant now than ever. The world is in crisis and he predicted things would get crazier and crazier. Why didn't you listen to him?
Instead you've been arguing with the opposition like atheists vs christians and coming up with no solutions. It's constant noise, nobody seems to understand eachother anymore.
this man transcended the red pill and left you niggas in the dust
Anyone have any opinions about his ideas and theories?

He got busted and to save his own ass he worked for cia to spread disinformation during the hippy movement. McKenna preaches all kind of nwo degeneracy. Mainly that the male should be feminine, and orgies etc..
Hes a poet philosopher who can explain shit well.

He's as fake a revolutionaire as Bill Hicks.
Psychedelis change you but they dont transcend you.
There's no superiority to them, despite what McKenna and others like Leary and Crowley suggest.

Such well thought arguments and responses, really made me think

Tread very carefully into the New Age stuff.
It has more to do with Magick and occultic practices than with liberation and freedom.
Change is assured but there's no moral compass save for yours and yours only.
Follow your heart and dont be fooled by others who are working to deceive you into believing their narrative over that of yours.

how do you know he was CIA and what was the disinformation?
I've never once had the impression that he implied males should be feminine and encouraged orgies. He has said before that amazon peoples who used to take psychedelics religiously had orgies. Though pschyedelics taken at sufficent doses increase sexual stimulation and people probably had less boundaries back then so no surprise there

It sound like you don't really have an understanding of what you're really talking about. No offence
He was no guru. He has even said not to listen to him. He simply offered ideas and musings and shared his thoughts and shed light on historically facsinating people that otherswise would be forgotton

The New Age movement was a social experiment in all its branches.

I was refering more to others with that statement. As I said McKenna is poorly cultured (not well read) in my oppinion .
McKenna doesnt have much interest to me. Just some guy that thought he knew something when he didnt know anything at all.
Anyone can say pretty things but dont think with your heart

You couldn't be more wrong. He dedicated his life to reading. From Plato to Jung, James Joyce, Alfred North Whitehead, Marshall Mcluhan, the list goes on and on. He seemed to have a firm grasp on past cultures and histories aswell.
I just think he has a lot of interesting ideas worth thinking about. Particularly the majpr role psychedelics played in human evolution
