Good book.

U.S. nuclear bomber pilots still carry dexies in their cockpit.

 

[Del191229]

Well known fact that the successful speed of Blitzkreig was in part because of the early use of meth by the German armies.

Could go night and day unrested until they achieved their target.

I'd say the tactics of Guderian and Rommel were more decisive than the meth, but it played a role.

 

[Del191229]

US pilots still take them to this day.

US plane blew up half a dozen Canadians in Afghanistan coz the pilot was zonked on gear.

Good book.

High Hitler: how Nazi drug abuse steered the course of history

German writer Norman Ohler’s astonishing account of methamphetamine addiction in the Third Reich changes what we know about the second world war

www.theguardian.com

An interesting read.

Although the premise is not universally accepted...

Blitzed: Drugs in Nazi Germany by Norman Ohler review – a crass and dangerously inaccurate account

Ohler’s book claims not only that German soldiers and civilians commonly used methamphetamine, but that Hitler was a drug addict

www.theguardian.com

And of course, we also have this...

[Del191229]

Yeah, the idea that because Hitler was on certain drugs it "made" him a certain way is rather sketchy.

The Drugs That Built a Super Soldier

During the Vietnam War, the U.S. military plied its servicemen with speed, steroids, and painkillers to help them handle extended combat.

[DaveyBoy123]

wtf thread do you guys think you're in?

I was just about to ask the same thing. Can someone save me the time of scouring the last 10 pages to see if Dean Laidley has been mentioned at all!?

Nope, its a clear ego battle between the same ol posters

And then when something does happen, no-one posts it.

So...

Victoria Police has revealed two more police officers have been suspended and are expected to be charged after photos of former AFL coach Dean Laidley in police custody were leaked.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Surely their can't possibly BE four unethical police personnel in the state of Victoria?

They piss champagne and fart potpourri.

Can’t help thinking this woulda been swept under carpet if not for Gov Covid app and that Pusey bloke filming the dying policewoman. Total PR disaster for Vic Pol and the Gov.

Except for the fact that the photo could not have been taken by a civilian...

You’d be surprised how much meth changes who you are, how you think and the actions you take.

Anecdotally, I knew of guys who were alpha males and had no problems with women who ended up...yeah, you get my drift.

My good mate was convinced I was working on behalf of ASIO.

He had convinced a few people in the neighbourhood to turn against me quite easily.

He had a way with words.

Master manipulator.

So good in fact, that I’d rather keep him on a leash than cut him off completely.

He was declared as being a paranoid schizophrenic.

Food for thought.

 

[Dan]

Are we giving Hitler a pass because he was methhead?

 

[Snake_Baker]

If people claim expertise about viral epidemiology and U.S. politics then you can hardly expect them to be immune to the intensive long term propaganda pertaining to methamphetamine and drugs.

He wrote Mein Kampf and tried to overthrow government in the Beer Hall putsch well before any drugs got involved.

Thank God they've weeded the four bad ones out who ruin an otherwise spotless force.

 

[Gasometer]

You could argue all the way back to his childhood, his authoritaran father, his mother, being a Uni Art drop out, WW1, losing WW1, the Treaty of Versailles and the Great Depression plus throw in some social Darwinism and pathological hatred of Jews and you get Adolf Hitler.
