It is true that mental illness is used to enforce consensus reality.

But why the hell would you cite terrence mckenna?  Remember, the guy is batshit crazy himself, first of all, and second of all, no one takes him seriously outside of the shroomery.  There are lots of psychologists who have written on this better then McKenna, one of them even wrote a book called the myth of mental illness.

Hey, I don't think TM was batshit, He was just a part of the puzzle. I thought him refreshingly eccentric.

On the rest of your post, I couldn't agree more.
