I increasingly think (especially with how completely ignorant we have been of our gut biome and the parasites in our systems affect us until *very* recently) that these things have a vastly greater affect on our world, the collective conscious, and our decisions than we want to admit.
I always think about the zombie stories where everyone is infected with some fungus or parasite that turns them into mindless demons… and all I can think is that this *literally* could be happening in some form across our society and we wouldn’t even know it.
Just look around at the mental and physical state of most people. Hard to dismiss outright, imo.

Actually, Ophiocordyceps caloceroides infecting a tarantula. The fungus keeps the host alive as long as possible and directs the spider to the place where assocarps can spread the fungi spores more effectively
