This is part of what led me down the road to conservatism. I'm aware of the intended audience, and yes, the irony is lovely.

| style="padding:15px;" |''‘The message is simple: think for yourself, and question authority. Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities, the political, the religious, the educational authorities who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing, forming in our minds their view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable, open-mindedness; chaotic, confused, vulnerability to inform yourself.'’''<ref>http://toolshed.down.net/lyrics/salivallyrics.php#01</ref>

'''Timothy Leary''' (1920 – 1996) was a psychologist who researched psychedelic [[drugs]] which change the activities of the brain—especially [[LSD]]—and promoted their use. He became the roving [[Hippie]], the sage of Aquarius, the 1960s icon who promoted peace and love through psychedelic drugs to a nation divided over the rise of the hippie counterculture, as Leary tried to avoid arrest and prison. Leary coined the slogan, "Turn on, tune in, drop out."
