“This article liberates discussion of the #politicsofPsychedelics from its present impasse. Across ten theses, it asserts that #psychedelics are interruptive #deautomating political technologies, which makes them conducive to democratic politics, in the radical sense: rather than consolidating liberal-democratic systems of representative or managed democracy, #psychedelicexperience tends to open such regimes up to the ferment of radical #democracy. To conceptualise the political ramifications of psychedelics requires that #psychedelicmysticism and the phenomenology of psychedelic experience be reconceived in ways which give due recognition to their embodied, agential and politically potentiating dimensions, which involves correcting restrictively neuro-centric conceptions of psychedelic mysticism and expanding incomplete phenomenologies. It further requires that the “deautomating” dimensions of psychedelic experience be conceptualised alongside an analysis of the prevailing anti-democratic forces of automation, administrative reason and computationalist abstraction.”
