Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Drugs don't change people. Plenty of murderers smoke weed, and no sane person arguing in good faith would say weed makes you violent.
I know hundreds of ketamine users. I have been in legal drug education and have a lot of personal experience too.
Drugs do not change behavior, but perspective does. Psychedelics and dissociatives alter perspective, and it's a fact that people alter their behavior depending on their perspective.
Muskyboi has a huge ego, most likely because of some grandeur perspective. But that's the opposite of the perspective one has on ketamine.
Yes psychedelics change perspective but you can still be a cunt. It's not a silver bullet unfortunately otherwise we'd have been in utopia after the 1960s.
As Bron so eloquently stated in Game of Thrones: "There's no cure for being a cunt."
So do you just not believe all of the various people who have watched or done Ketamine with him?
His own friends say that he microdoses Ketamine daily and macrodoses at parties.
I'm saying mentioning ketamine is useless and its impact on Musk is meaningless. The amounts he's taking are either too small to be mentioned, or not high enough to drop that stupid nazi perspective.
I think ketamine is an absolutely amazing substance with a lot of positive psychological effects, but mentioning it when talking about Muskyboi and Nazis is useless. It doesn't change the man. He just likes to do it, who cares?
Oh. I get you know, and I agree. He would be the same racist prick with or without substances.
Have you tried taking ketamine well be the richest person on the planet and thinking you are the smartest?
Set and setting matter a lot, as does intent going into things with the drug. Ketamine can offer perspective and help you become a better person, that doesn't mean it always does.
When Elon Musk does drugs, do you think he goes into it looking for enlightenment, or looking to party?
This seems like a massive and ultimately incorrect generalization.
Weed doesn’t have to reliably turn the worst murderers in society into community serving pacifists every single time in order to be effective and worthwhile. That’s just perfect being the enemy of good.
Like another reply said, drugs can change perspective which is how people change themselves. It certainly worked for me with both weed and ketamine (both legally sourced with medical providers involved, and only several times total with the ketamine).
The problem is generalizations. I've seen people get extremely paranoid on weed. Everyone is different.
Absolutely. Likewise, prescribed medications for mental heath vary by individual and they are essentially trial and error with some educated guessing by your doctor.
It doesn't change the core being is my point. You can't take an evil person and make them good with drugs, and you can't take a good person and make them evil with drugs. They just amplify or shift perspective, but they don't introduce anything from the outside into the person who uses them.
