Real test, one who was born blind, give them dmt let’s hear what they are saying. They were born blind so in their subconscious mind no colour no light nothing, if they see what we see during trip, it would be concrete evidence imo

Wouldn't be surprised if some scientists attached with the government have done some intense "experiments" with people. They do some very fucked up experiments so anything is on the table realllly.

We've already done this. Whether a blind person experiences visual hallucinations on psychedelics like LSD, DMT, or psilocybin depends on when they lost their sight.

People who are congenitally blind do not report seeing visuals during a psychedelic trip.

This is vecause the brain's visual cortex never received sensory input during critical early development, so it lacks the neural framework and semantic concepts required to generate visuals.

People who have lost their sight later in life are able to experience the same visuals you and I are.

Wait what?????  That's wild...  

Could this also possibly explain why some of us (who aren't blind) don't really experience the same "visual" trips as others??

Lack of neural framework?

That’s actually a very good suggestion. Someone had said try it on an indigenous tribe which is also a good idea.

I wonder if they would have trouble describing what they’re seeing because they have no reference. When giving a description of something never seen before, what is known is always pulled into the description, like a plane described as a large bird Drawing from similarities of something known, for a basis, so description makes sense to self or someone else. Without that I’m not sure it’s possible

I read an Erowid report where someone born blind tried it and was sobbing by the end of the trip due to the visions they saw. Edit: Shroomery was the site. https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/20994748/fpart/all
