Yeah they tricked people into believing that Apple added something that allowed users to charge their phones by microwaving them

It's "Delete system 32" and "magnetize to wipe your hard drive" all over again.

This is giving me racist dog-whistle vibes.

TIL ADHD is either a "race", or the diagnosis is "racist."

Fuck off, troll.

Its actually the "went to church, talented white folk there", posted by "fren", somehow they learned random old dude was "88" which has no bearing on the story and isn't usually something that comes up in short conversations, and the "I was like before I did these things"

It gives recruitment/fishing vibes to me. If 100 people read it and 99 see ADHD and move on, but 1 person asks them how they could also feel good about themselves, boom, one more Nazi recruit. That's how dog whistles work. You toss an innocuous thing like "88" in your story, it let's those in the know that you're part of the team and you're on the job.

multiple times the big one was to wrap a spoon in duct tape and microwave it or boil bleach and drip alcohol in it to make crystals.

I thought it was ammonia instead of alcohol.
