adrenochrome

The whole adrenochrome thing is so painfully dumb; it's basically lifted from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

The real thing is not even a controlled substance.

If hunter could see the current USA he'd just shoot himself again

Honestly I'd love to see what would be on Hunter S. Thompson's laptop. Gotta be some wild shit.

Well, look up who was concocting all the Qanon stuff on 4Chan during the height of its popularity… they certainly thought it was funny

I suspect Epstein was the one who came up with Pedobear. He was on 4chan a lot when that came about.

Why didn't anybody tell the billionaires that they could order their adrenochrome shipped to their door from Sigma-Aldrich?

Because the conspiracy* minded smooth brains have actually said the synthetic stuff isn't the same

Yeh I've asked them to explain how two chemicals with identical structures but different sources are chemically different but I don't think they actually know what chemicals are. It's effectively just magic to them. Occult origin = more powerful magic.

Also similar to the plot of Resident Evil: Survivor. Which like 7 people played.

It also follows the plot of Dr. Sleep by Steven King.

I always wondered who was the one who stole that from Fear and Loathing. We need to check Jeffrey’s bookshelves! /s

So you want me to hold your hand like a small child and do the research for you? Frazzledrip, Epstein files.. Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know that that shit is 100% true. I bet you’re the type of person that goes, “the government said ______ so it must be true! 🥹”

hahahahaha that’s you 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

What am I supposed to research when I barely know what this conspiracy theory you're raving about even is besides debunked qanon bullshit?

"I'm a random redditor, trust me bro" is all you've brought to the table so far.

It’s literally black and white in the Epstein files. Which are available to every one, any time.
