Based on my personal experience, I would rate this very accurate.
I guess there are four types of beliefs towards psychedelics.
1. they induce some form of hallucinations and then it's "back to reality". 2. these substances show us "the real nature of reality" while "normal life" is set up in a way to "block" our senses for whatever reason 3. adventurous mind and "let's see what will happen" 4. only stupid people would do "drugs". These are exactly the type of people who end up on the street shooting needles and doing petty thefts to get their daily fix. It's for stupid and irresponsible people.
I think nr. 3 is the most adequate position. personal experiences vary greatly. I find all the advice in the film pretty reasonable, you can tell it's from people who have tried it but not "studied" it.
Are these substances for everybody, in every context, just like a beer. Hell no.
Can they be valuable and give you a valuable perspective on life? Absolutely.
Aside from personal experiences, I think what people can learn is that perception can very well be reality and that sometimes fixed ways of seeing and perceiving the world and not necessarily "the true, the only, the right" etc perspective.
It loosesn the boundaries and opens up space for nore "nuances" and for different perspectives.
In my mind that's a good thing. Seeint more perspectives is a sign of intelligences, think about that.
I give 10/10.
