I had to lower my ritalin dose because it's labelled a controlled substance and put under heavy manufacturing restrictions by people who are afraid some will abuse prescriptions only to find out those same people are the ones abusing speed

Going back to the Nazi roots of doing so much speed it becomes a real problem for them

Explains the Silk Road pardon, doesn’t it?

gwensnyder.bsky.social•2 days ago

Well, sort of. As best I understand it that was more of a gimme for the Vichyified Libertarian Party and also crypto jerkoffs

jfs.bsky.social•2 days ago

I don’t think there’s really a plan. It’s all just an assortment of wealthy or powerful weirdos circling Trump in hopes of a payoff. Pick any policy and half of Trump world probably disagrees with the other half.

Just look at Project 2025 itself. There’s essays extolling tariffs and essays pushing unfettered free trade.

So wait they're doing drugs while on the job ?

Of course they are

Elon smoked pot on a podcast with a camera rolling.

Can confirm about the Proud Boys. They would roll into town drink heavily and pick fights at bars. Since MAGA they have begun skipping the bars and just show up drunk and buzzed and go after folks on the streets.

Nazi doctors prescribed speed regularly to troops…

Pretty sure also Hitler had his own Ronnie Jackson giving him uppers, downers, all arounders

And that doesn't even touch on the rumors (Trump and 80's diet pill uppers, Don Jr. and cocaine) that aren't necessarily fully substantiated but certainly seem pretty plausible given the circumstantial evidence.

halfcourtshot.bsky.social•2 days ago

What's incredible is Trump addicted to diet pills and is a obese sloth providing they don't work for weight loss, just to get high as fuck.

gwensnyder.bsky.social•2 days ago

Which again, a lot of people use uppers like Adderall because they are a needed medication (me! I can't take it right now because I am breastfeeding and I'm a mess!).

But used irresponsibly these drugs can cause serious impairment, especially when the abuse is long-term and uninterrupted.

It's part of what drove the Nazi push in World War II and part of what lost them the war.

Do we need to start drug testing our officials?

gwensnyder.bsky.social•2 days ago

And all signs point to this being a movement rife with uninterrupted stimulant abuse at all levels.

Which is a) deeply hypocritical and b) has dire implications. For us, and hopefully ultimately for them.

dramaticowl.bsky.social•2 days ago

Very bad for all of us, but honestly bad for them too. That stuff takes its toll.

Robert J Lifton studied totalitarian groups including Nazi and Aum Shinrokyo, found alcohol and other dissociative drugs were integral for the compartmentalization that allowed people to carry out inhumane behavior. Use also reinforced unethical expectations & norms during euphoric socialization

quiddityjones.bsky.social•2 days ago

I remember stuff about Hitler tweaking out on uppers and downers...

battynatty.bsky.social•2 days ago

You might call it a blitzkrieg through the government.
