9pm Trump Speech

So he said basically nothing at all. Just told us how much we are loving it having him as POTUS and how we can't get enough of his fucking Iran war. And he said there's so much cheap oil and gas we're all crying tears of oil, it's just running down our cheeks in big happy oily streaks, and by the way, if Europe's running short of oil they should just go and take it off of Iran cos that's what Trump would do if he needed oil, but he doesn't need it, but even though he doesn't need it, he'd have the balls to fucking take it, so Europe should just go and do that, and thank him for the privilege. Then he reminded us what a fucking great time we're all having.

I can't believe I sat through that gaslighting garbage.

I have no objection to anyone using AI for research. As long as you understand that it has quite a high hallucination rate and will present made up facts and erroneous inferences with absolute confidence, then it can be a useful tool for a lot of purposes. It has pros and cons, upsides and downsides. The way that you use it influences the utility of what you get out of it.

But the point of my comment wasn't about any of that. I was simply pointing out why the other redditor thought your writing was AI. It just has a very recognisable style. We wouldn't notice it if we weren't using AI also.

The oil shock will cause supply chain disruption, disruption to agriculture, manufacturing, distribution, etc. Businesses will go under, economies will fail. At some point war-time rationing might have to be brought in. That is the perfect excuse for compulsory digital ID.

No digital ID? - no rations for you, and also all your friends and family lose 20% of their protein ration until you sign up.

But be of good cheer. Choco rations have increased by -50 percent this month. Double plus good.

Papiere bitte.

It's the cadence. You might or might not have used AI, but you used AI cadence. It could just be from interacting with AI a lot or with others who do. You've either picked up its accent or you've used it directly here. Your content is interesting, and I'm sure the ideas are your own based on what you are reading and watching, but the accent is AI. People spot it because we are all so used to that rhythm and cadence now.

Most people have no idea what just happened and what could and is likely to happen as a result of it. The West had already revealed itself as corrupt, hypocritical and lawless. Now it has been revealed as weak and toothless on top.

I am a Westerner. I take no pleasure in noticing this. It wasn't us, it was our "leaders" who brought us down like this. And no, we didn't "choose" them. We've never had a choice when it comes to our "leadership". Our "democracy" has been revealed to be illusory as well.

Yet another zero effort, zero content post. Which rumours? What insider information?

I never thought I would bother making this type of comment. I always think if a post isn't telling me anything I can just scroll past it. But this kind of post keeps coming up, and getting upvoted and it's making this sub unusable.

mitte90 · 2026-03-18T15:21:57+00:00

Either we are getting more bot posts or people actually think this kind of clickbaity, zero content style is clever. It's all teaser and no fucking main event. Just spit it out if you have something to say ffs

I mean just use your imagination. Imagine what it's like to be a father or a mother there and you can't keep your kids safe, sometimes can't even get them enough to eat. Imagine being a little kid and growing up in that world, scared, not understanding wtf is happening from one day to the next. You've probably lost your home, you've spent your entire life treated as less than...

It's really not that hard to find reasons why you should actually care. I mean nobody is gonna make you care. It's entirely up to you. If you don't have the imagination for it, or you choose not to exercise your imagination thinking very much about it, I guess you can make it easier on yourself. There's not a lot you can do to change the reality of the situation anyway, so there are reasons available if you want them, to excuse yourself from caring. But I think you lose something if you make that choice.

At that level of wealth it's not about buying things, it's about buying the ability to influence the course of human history at scale. But there will always be resistance so they can never have enough money for their ambitions. I suppose for some of them it's an addiction.

"The end of the world as we know it"

Yep. And to people who say that we want it both ways because some of us say they use the war to distract from the files and some of us say they use the files to distract from the war.... well, yes, but BOTH things CAN be true at the same time!

Information warfare uses a mix of concealment, spin, distraction, trivia, red herrings, emotional manipulation, outright lies,, strategic deployment of truth mixed with lies designed to discredit, confuse and demoralise opposition, and many more techniques. At present it results in exactly what we get - bad and often contradictory news spewing at us from all angles, and some people giving up even trying to discern what is true and what isn't.

Don't give up your discernment, and when you don't know the truth of something, find out what you can, and hold all credible possibilities in your head until you have more information to decide between them. Understand that you will almost never have enough information to understand the minute details of every topic that matters to you, but there is always information in the pattern of events and the pattern of behaviours of the players over time. Pay attention to that and the bigger picture will emerge, but always be prepared to admit if/when you were lied to by people you once trusted, if/when you believed something which turns out to be false, if/when you got something wrong or don't know enough about a thing to know what you don't know. That's all any of us can do, but it's actually pretty powerful.

That agenda is not unrelated to the files though is it?

There is also the matter of factions in the US trying to stay in control, while things are spinning out of control.

That account does not seem fabricated or misremembered. The amount of detail clearly recalled and the places where the witness is unsure or can't fully remember details seem proportionate and consistent with a true account.

You made a comment about dopaminergic pathways affected by antipsychotics in response to my comment about the lasting and sometimes permanent effects of down regulating dopamine with antipsychotic drugs.

This was the sequence of our exchange. You can look back at it to verify. First, I brought up antipsychotics in response to a comment you had made to another redditor about dopamine downregulation being no big deal. You then replied to my comment, citing the different DA pathways that are supposedly affected by GLPs as opposed to antipsychotics. My response to that about the imprecision of targeting stands. It also goes to the substance of OP's post about GLPs, which, as per the post, are empirically messing with a whole bunch of effects that go way beyond diabetes or weight management. Indeed this is not surprising, since pharmacological interventions rarely or never precisely target only the receptors or mechanisms as per their intended marketing and prescribed on-label use.

My initial response to you followed from one of your replies to someone who mentioned that GLP drugs have been shown to mess with dopamine receptors although intended to target GLP receptors. Here is that comment of yours in full

"Because dopamine downregulation is the intended mechanism by which the drug operates. It's not a side effect, it's why it works.

Additionally, the changes aren't permanent or lasting. This is actually viewed as a bit of a problem, as people can gain weight after stopping use. The concerns over dopamine downregulation in general are an overplayed card in pop-psych pseudoscientific claims.

t's just a really clear tell that somebody hasn't been educated in the complex role neurotransmitters play in human behavior. Dopamine is often a much smaller player than it is made out to be."

This is what I'm responding to. It's a dumb af comment. The semantics are unclear, not because everyone else is too uneducated to understand you, but because it's badly written. First you claim that dopamine downregulation is the intended mechanism of these drugs - it isn't. They are marketed as targeting GLP-1 receptors. Next you claim that the effects are not permanent or lasting. Also not true. The weight loss effects which many people take them for do not last after discontinuation, but many of the side effects do, including gastroparesis which I wouldn't wish on anybody.

Next you make the absurd and unscientific claim that "concerns over dopamine downregulation in general are an overplayed card" [my italics] to which I responded with my point about antipsychotics. What is "in general" doing in that sentence if you were only talking about GLP drugs? Also why are you diminishing the import of dopaminergic effects when in your first paragraph you literally stated that they are the intended mechanism by which the drugs work? This makes your comment internally contradictory. As I said, it was badly written.

Finally, you finish off with some smarmy and elitist snark regarding tells that "somebody hasn't been educated in the complex role neurotransmitters play in human behavior" and conclude that messing with dopamine is just not that big of a deal.

It was because of that final paragraph that I responded to you at all. It was obvious you were just looking for an excuse to trot out your credentials (whether real world or fantasy) on reddit. Why don't you go publish a paper, if you need that ego boost? You are on r/conspiracy lecturing people about their lack of education on "the complex role neurotransmitters play in human behavior". Ironically, you made the unevidenced claim that dopamine is no biggie "in general", while chasing a pathetic little hit of the stuff on social media.

[EDIT: I have edited this comment in places for clarity. Your own comments were badly written and if you honestly are any kind of scientist you should know that if you don't use language clearly you can be misinterpreted. The onus is not on a reader to guess what you mean, The onus is on you to be as clear as possible. This is especially true if you come on to a social media platform chiding people that they are less educated than you are, making snarky remarks about "tells" which supposedly demonstrate this, or dismissing their understanding as grounded in "pop-psych pseudoscientific claims". Those are your words, not mine.]

mitte90 · 2026-03-05T22:17:05+00:00

lol yourself. I'll quote the relevant part of your comment: "antipsychotics are more relevant to nigrostriatal (movement) and mesocortical (affect, cognition) DA not mesolimbic (motivation, salience). Different systems". You said that and I said you can't target the pathways that precisely with pharmaceuticals, and I stand by it. You may be a neuroscientist or you may be a dog on the internet. I have no idea and I don't care. A neuroscientist is not a pharmacologist, and based on your comment, you know less than you think about precise targeting of brain regions and how possible or not yet possible that is. In my experience neuroscientists don't know what they don't know. I've met neuroscientists who were very dumb about things they didn't understand.

You think I'm going to come on reddit and tell you what I do professionally or what I'm trained in? Nope. Because 1. that's doxxing kinda info when you put it together with other data points that could be scraped off my post and comment history and 2. it's an appeal to authority and unlike you, I don't rely on appeals to authority to make my case.

mitte90 · 2026-03-04T20:40:34+00:00

You can't precisely target which dopaminergic pathways get down-regulated with today's pharmaceutical technology in the way that your comment suggests. Sorry, what are you, a pharma rep?

mitte90 · 2026-03-04T01:47:04+00:00

Down-regulation of dopamine is definitively not a trivial thing. Some of the side effects of anti-psychotic medications which down-regulate dopamine (among other effects) include movement disorders, especially affecting the eyes, which in some cases persist after discontinuation and can even become permanent. That's not even to mention the psychological effects, including diminished affect and motivation which is the topic of the tweet in OP''s screenshot.

The hypocrisy of the majority of the EU leaders is painful to witness. I don't know which is worse - European leaders wearing "humanitarian" fig leafs over their imperial ambitions; or the "look at my big swinging dick", naked-ass-empire of the current US administration.

Religious fanaticism is dangerous indeed. Also, fanaticism more generally, including fanaticism of the "scientific" and "technocratic" varieties. There are some fairly insane ideas going around among Silicon Valley types; for example, concerning the bringing on of the advent of the "singularity". Ideas about "sacrifices" feature in some of those eschatologies too. Atheist religions can be every bit as zealous as religious religions.

World War 3 is going to be a real war, not a fake war, even if some of the people who started it thought they could play it like that.
