Patreon Preview 267. Psychonauts for Capital

Published: July 13, 2023, 12:02 a.m.

b'We start off with the very funny legal letter that Musk\\u2019s lawyers sent to Zuckerberg threatening legal action for Threads stealing IP from Twitter. Then we get into reporting on the rampant use of psychedelics in Silicon Valley. But they aren\\u2019t taking drugs for cool reasons, but rather to become more productive and creative with microdosing. This is yet another way to chemically create the most productive workforce, who are also more resilient against the soul crushing brutality of a capitalist regime. It\\u2019s like if MKUltra took place in a Stanford lab with VC funding.\\n\\nStuff we reference:\\n\\u2022\\u2022\\u2022 Screenshot of Twitter v.
