Drug Addiction is a Real Problem, It Destroys Families

Including the Microsofters' - the ones that shamelessly SLAPP us and engage in extortion. One of them was an admitted alcoholic who allegedly does (or did) drugs and the other (below) lost his spouse to it:

Decriminalise most drugs

THIS is a rather sensitive matter and one that we approach with caution as people's lives may depend on it.

We have discussed this internally lately and we'll not publicise more sensitive information (we'll try not to compromise the privacy of anyone and thus won't mention names and moreover base everything on information published online about oneself). The sources are credible as they're people talking about themselves, as opposed to gossip or rumours (third persons). There won't be many links in this post because links can help readers discover identities.

The person shown above has a "girlfriend". He keeps talking about a girlfriend all the time in social control media, more so in recent weeks. That girlfriend isn't the spouse because of 1) the pronouns and 2) people don't refer to wives as girlfriends. Another factor is, the spouse is not in a position to meet. We'll come to this in a moment. Anyway, unless it is some totally fictional girlfriend or some "trolling" (it would be extremely insensitive to troll in this context), what we seem to be dealing with here is breakdown of a marriage, only about 2 years after the matrimony (ceremony). We did not miss the irony and the projection [1, 2].

At the centre of all this there seems to be extreme addiction. Clinically insane people, as well. Mix mental instability with some alcohol and the yield might be a fatal cocktail.

So what led to this mess? Well, the spouse of Mr. "decriminalise most drugs" openly spoke to a victim of the Serial Strangler from Microsoft, whom he now collaborates with in an effort to crush a Microsoft critic (before deleting the Twitter account; we grabbed a copy of it).

We are guessing there was a very major dispute about this "tag-team" [1, 2], wherein two delirious mobsters try to crush women and journalists in another continent because they write about Microsoft corruption and much more. Not only did this backfire [1, 2], it cost a lot of money and one can guess who foots a $500,000 bill. Probably not the guy who has just lost his health, spouse, dog, house, money, job, and lawyer.

Perhaps realising how much legal trouble the husband was getting into in spite of any sense of rationality (common sense), this person turned to the bottle (or wagon). That's just a plausible, modest guess. Suffice to say, it didn't end well. Alcohol is notorious not for its impact of health, which is substantial, but for being very addictive compared to various other drugs (and as the body develops resistance to it more quantity will be required for the same "effect"). The Serial Strangler from Microsoft should know, as he was an alcoholic and it might be a thing in the family.

We hypothesise that the conversation didn't go well upon discovering that the Serial Strangler from Microsoft became an ally of the world's worst coder, who also turned out to be an absolutely terrible, selfish, conceited husband. It's plausible as it's hard to reconcile being married to a person who enables and collaborates with the very behaviour you persistently object to, as if one can condone strangling women as long as it serves one's interest (worse than "Enemy of My Enemy").

One person we recently spoke to commented on the situation with "crazy Matt and co."

Is Matt drinking alcohol on the job?

Maybe in California it's considered normal to have a carton of beers and then work with students.

"There was (and is) the practice by Microsoft here of exploiting rather intelligent but very unwise and very poor [or impoverished] fools as catspaws," this person argued.

"Ars [Technica] also had an Microsoft komprimat on staff for a long time pushing Microsoft swill" (until his arrest for pedophilia).

Remember that the Serial Strangler from Microsoft (Graveley, who tries to silence those who talk about it, even when the evidence is clear to see) was telling partners to kill themselves (even ones who already had suicide in their family), whereas his sidekick apparently "moves on" when his spouse becomes so suicidal that the state forcibly puts that spouse in an asylum*.

"Keep in mind that Microsoft considers him a disposable tool," an anonymous reader argues. "It permeates the culture there. Case in point:"

We've decided not to comment much on the person who's in deep trouble right now and instead quote someone who did.

* "To be fair," someone said to us, "anyone would resort to alcohol abuse if they had to live with [Mr. "decriminalise most drugs"]. :) I don't even like the taste of alcohol. There's nothing worse than being kissed by a drunk person except being kissed by a drunk person who has also been smoking. A 5150 hold though. Good lord."

Involuntary hold

Seems like a "cabin of addicts". They kept posting photos of alcoholic beverages from there, at one point boasting about drinking dozens of bottles. Way to destroy one's liver.

(Also assisted with the drinking of 29 cheap beers and the pouring out of a 30th to commemorate the 29 men of the Edmund Fitzgerald and the ship herself, ticking off more US culture boxes)

About the predicament of the spouse: "That's the mental hygiene law, for when the State has to do something about a crazy person. Every State calls it something different, they're not all the same exact law, but generally you get held when you're suicidal and a credible authority figure has witnessed it or has reason to believe it. They have to hold you for at least 72 hours for observation. It can go on for weeks or months if you're not cooperating with treatment and a psychiatrist believes you're too dangerous to be let out (to yourself, or others). It's harder to be held on one than it used to be. Since Reagan. It's been harder and harder for States to get federal money to hospitalise the mentally ill. Including people who SHOULD be there. Which means that if you've found your way into one of these places for weeks or months..." (it must be very serious, it has gone on for almost 2 months).

"[Redacted] has the Community Mental Health System. Basically, the local ones won't hold you for more than a couple weeks, ever. If it goes on past that, the doctor has to transfer you to [Redacted] or [Redacted], which are the State hospitals. It's not quite as bad as jail, but you're not free to leave until they say you are. And I'm surprised there's even computer access."

"Mental health stuff always gets the least competent staff and doctors. Their job is to silence and discredit, not to help the patient. If word gets out you've been in one of these places, your credibility is shot. So why would anyone tweet about it?"

oh good lord, New York? Thanks for the evidence that I've been part of the conspiracy for 20 years
