    It wasn’t Botox tho, right?

    Like the dude who’s all about “personal responsibility” couldn’t man up and make it thru benzo detox got put in a coma to avoid it in a eastern European hospital because no one else would risk it

    Then they couldn’t bring him out of the coma and he got brain damage.

    But did he really get Botox in the brain to intentionally cause the coma?

    Like, that just sounds even more insane…

      A coma to avoid benzo detox?

      I mean, I guess that’s one way to skip it.

      I’d personally just let the docs provide me stuff to deal with the symptoms along the way, it’s not like it’s going to be any quicker

        Yeah. That’s why western doctors wouldn’t do it

        The detox isn’t even that bad, and he ended up with brain damage.

        One of the most common side effects of brain damage is poor emotional regulation and responding to confusion with belligerence.

        At one point, this asshole was just a psychology professor with right-wing political beliefs that rarely came up. The change happened before the coma, but he wasn’t threatening to fight people on Twitter.

        The full story is much…much more crazy.

        Jordy In a coma.

        His Russian son in law, in 2 days, gets him a visa to Russia.

        In a coma, they transport jordy to Russia.

        In Russia, jordy undergoes a still unknown ‘treatment’.

        Jordy later awakens, confused, because Russian.

        Jordy joins the dark side.

        This is fact.

        (Will find the news article (from Canada’s very right wing paper))

        Edit: here it is from the horses own ass
