biohackers is a shit sub, on a subject that silicon valley internet douche lords were already big on. Fuck those guys, anyone on that community is already a fucking tool.
It would be like complaining about manipulative posts on a singularity sub.
It's really strange that the mods in the article are talking about the risks for their users by spammers while operating a subreddit that is totally encouraging people to inject them with really strange, untested stuff
I remember they were big on this methylene blue stuff, that rfk was hyping, apparently people that take it if they get autopsied they have blue in their brains. But yeah, all sots of weird stuff.
Biohacking was already a word used by all of these fountain of youth chasers following snake oil salesman, that is what they are.
I wasted so much money on different nootropics over the years, but it was stuff like piracetam, centroxophine, deprenyl, hydergine, stuff that's actually been tested on people before, and to be honest it would be hard to find a reputable lab nowadays unless you are a legitimate researcher.
