Last year I've realized (mostly from reading some pretty cool books) that I still had a lot of implicit assumptions about how the world goes. To my surprise, I find myself leaning towards a soft form of conspiracy theory (or class war, if you will), of "us vs them".

To me this came from having access to a historical perspective. But the resulting shift was so subjective, so much like seeing the same things from a different perspective that I can no longer say with conviction that drugs like LSD could never do the same thing. The fact that a dose of a drug gives you no new information may not be so important, as long as it helps you rearrange the knowledge you already have.
