      Big time. Luckily the mustache man was not only a poor strategist and so egotistical so as not to listen to his brilliant strategists, but he also was out of his mind on amphetamines and other drugs; which further reduced his capacity to make good strategic decisions.

      The allies were planning a solid assassination attempt with a high probability of success, but they called it off because they were worried that whoever replaced him would actually be competent and he would become a martyr that would fuel greater problems down the road post-victory.

        I always love stories about Hitler’s final days: yelling in paranoia, demanding more drugs, constantly shitting himself and fouling up every room, in excruciating pain, smelling like he was rotting from the inside out. And these are from reports of those close to him.

        I wish he had been captured, I’d love to read descriptions from his captors

        And further, there were German coup plots to assassinate Hitler for the same reason, to try and put someone competent in there.

      Yea… I would believe that. Meth really brings out the hate in people. Speaking from growing up in the Midwest and seeing it too much first hand.

    We need a reliable source for clips like this. It could easily be AI. Of course I’d like it to be real but I don’t want to take part in the disinformation epidemic.

    It looks like he’s rolling his head to crack his neck. Yeah it is an awkward moment, but I’ve seen plenty of people move like that when cracking their neck. It doesn’t mean anything unless you can prove otherwise, which you can’t, so you just end up looking really pathetic which ends up helping Trump. I swear some of you must be Trump’s biggest fans, cause it is things like this when others see that they aren’t like… “Oh yeah, that is definitely “drugs” causing him to roll his head.”

      That’s a pretty fucking weird way to crack your neck. Slightly moving your head around while rolling your eyes in exctacy doesn’t cause your neck to crack.

        If you have consistent compression in your neck, it is a moment of ecstasy when you get a good crack in. I’m all for calling out Musk for his bad takes on things, but this is just pathetic to most people… You end up making people not believe anything else you have to say when you try to turn things like this into something they’re not.

          I need to crack my neck frequently and I can confidently say that isn’t what’s happening here.

          For sure, if you want to lay out alternative explanations, feel free, but he 100% is not cracking his neck.

      We’re gonna need levity to survive. I don’t mind laughing at fuckheads if it reduces their potency, including you. 🤣
