For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

You copied a binch of text. Source?

I know stuff is being sold as XTC, which turns out not to be XTC. That's still not XTC. That is called a scam.

When they add stuff to it, like 2CB for example, they don't sell it as XTC but under a different name. If a dealer sells it under the XTC name, he's mislabeling his own product and making a loss as these combo pills usually are more expensive.

I started partying 20 years before you when you could take pills and cops just let you drive on after doing the alcohol test.

I was a late bloomer, I started partying when I was 18 and now I'm 38. I also have experience with cops just checking alcohol and nothing else, I just never drove while being on drugs. Because that is fucking stupid, I've had friends die that way. But since you started 20 years before me, you're in you're 50's nearing 60's if I'm counting right, correct?

I never tested pills, I got them from reliable sources.

Right. So your source had them tested and told you the results?

But from experience with other substances you know and recognise their presence occasionally, some trippy, some speedy.
And confirmed by others using the same.
No test needed.

There is a wide variety of trip substances so how do you know which one is in it? Did you know MDA also has a tripping effect? Bar tables, crowd control fences and everyone wearing glasses happen only with XTC, not any other trip drug. The pills which have these effects, I don't know if you remember but like the orange Q base pills years ago, often have very high MDA quantities. Back in the days they sometimes added some amphetamine but they also added glass fibers so it would work faster by damaging your esophagus. But the speedy effect mostly came from how the process was done with forming the MDMA or MDA with the pill powder substance, which is what is also used in medicine to form pills.

I know exactly what you mean when it comes to experience. This one is more trippy, that one is more energetic. I've had a wide scala of substances over the years, the good old classics and many new designer ones. You say you didn't need the data. I did see the data and saw experts explain why things are the way they are. I find data and experts more reliable than my own experience because there can be so much more to it I don't know.

And please, especially in these days with the rise of designer drugs and trends from the Americas being pushed over here (like meth, oxycodon and fentanyl), have your stuff tested. Or make sure your trusted sourse had it tested, and doesn't just rely on their source like you are relying on them. Sadly we need to be more careful we will actually get what we want. But the point is, XTC is MDMA (or a variant like MDA) in pill form and shouldn't contain any other substance. If it does, it's dangerous as people don't know what they are taking.

So far the main issue is that the quality is going down due to harder to get resources. I could see this to turn into a future where they add other stuff into it, which I hope they don't, but so far this mixing thing has mostly happened under different names (like tucybe in South America).
