A fun yet terrifying question then arises: if a pill can change your political beliefs, could someone trick or force you into taking that pill against your will?

What if I like being staunchly conservative, and my very liberal spouse's homemade pizza has some mushrooms on it that I've never seen before? What if instead of an assassination, the next hard-right-wing President gets hit by a dart laced with psilocybin? What if someone finds a pill that makes you more approving of authoritarianism, and an authoritarian government makes taking that pill mandatory?

This is science fiction fodder, and yet it's all real. Can we please slow down? It's all coming at me too fast.
