    I mean… basically everyone was back then. Everyone knows the fun fact that Coca Cola used to contain cocaine. Fewer people think about the implications of that or how soda was generally sold at the pharmacy.

    But yeah. nazi leadership is generally accepted to have been on WAY more drugs than most of their contemporaries.

      I’m not sure if you’re just trying to illustrate some point or intentionally trying to link Hitler and Coca-Cola. But Coke was down to trace amounts of cocaine by 1904 and none before 1930.

        They didn’t link Hitler to Coke. They said (in the context of the 20th century) loads of people were on drugs AND that Hitler & Co were on more drugs than most.
