Hitler and Drugs

Adolf Hitler’s drug use is a subject of significant historical interest and debate. According to Norman Ohler’s research in his book “Blitzed: Drugs in Nazi Germany,” Hitler was heavily dependent on a variety of drugs, primarily administered by his personal physician, Theodor Morell. Morell prescribed and injected Hitler with a range of substances, including amphetamines, barbiturates, and opiates, among others. These drugs were intended to alleviate Hitler’s health issues, such as sinusitis and digestive problems, but also to enhance his energy and mental state.

One of the most notable drugs Hitler used was methamphetamine, often in the form of Pervitin, which was widely distributed to German soldiers during World War II. Pervitin was believed to enhance alertness and reduce fatigue, making it a popular choice for the Nazi regime to maintain the performance of its soldiers.

Fuck me is that real?! Of course it is. And the conservatives are as hypocritical about drugs as ever.

Yes it’s real, and taken just a few hours before his Nazi salute.

Is this a German-named-thing or am I seeing Futurism everywhere lately?
