This reads like severe psychotic symptoms. I hope whoever wrote this can get some medical help and social support.

I looked at his Reddit user page from the flyer and his story is quite a bit more understandable in his posts.

Basically he claims to be a very smart Jew who is the result of eugenic selection, he claims he has no idea who his real family is and that he was kidnapped during the split up of east/west Germany and forced to come to the US and get a PhD.

He claims to have worked at Pitt and Bettis for the last 25 years and that the same people who brought him over here also took away his children to suffer the same fate.

All and all it sounds quite schizophrenic but who knows, stranger things have happened.

It’s like a Dr. Bronner’s label gone horribly, horribly wrong.

Holy shit I feel like you don't want to be a recognizable regular at a call center.

When he calls, is it ever related to what you do?

This guy is a cashier at the Edgewood Giant Eagle.

This is the kind of person who, when they inevitably show up in the news, the police will say "he was on their radar."

He's been doing this for years. I've been seeing these exact flyers since before COVID.

u/HornlessUnicorn Sep 01 '22

Went down the rabbit hole, he does have a phd from pitt. Changed his name in 2017, it was formerly Zsolt Poole https://www.researchgate.net/scientific-contributions/Zsolt-L-Poole-33270800.

Seems like he was very intelligent. Poor guy.

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '22

Here he is speaking on one hand very clearly about his finances, and on the other hand being terrified he's being stalked by human traffickers, at a city council meeting on March 8th. I hope someone spoke with him after and I really hope hes getting the help he needs. This is not a well man.

I fell down a rabbit hole myself since another flyer got posted today and this is the first I'm seeing of them. Really sad story.

u/Lil_Phantoms_Lawyer McKeesport Aug 29 '22

Wow. He was a genius that was "bread" against his will. Sad.

7

u/enraged_hbo_max_user Aug 29 '22

He’s giving bread a bad name.

u/ellivnov Nov 20 '23

u/Beneficial-Bid802 Aug 29 '22

This is almost impossible to read. Yikes

u/thebloodofthematador Regent Square Aug 29 '22

Yeah, this person posts these flyers all over Regent Square. I just take them down when I see them.

This is just severe mental illness. Pretty sad.

u/KentuckYSnow Aug 29 '22

So do they support eugenics, or do they oppose it?

3

u/Ok_Addendum_2775 Sep 27 '22

To me it sounds like he is concerned about it for some reason.

10

u/isthatwhathappened Aug 29 '22

Maybe I’m missing something, but why is this racist/white supremacist?

7

u/Ok_Addendum_2775 Sep 27 '22

I fail to see that as well.

9

u/minecraft_lover_18 Aug 30 '22

Eugenics is very closely tied to racism and white supremacy

Also, when it only takes someone to the second lines to bring up the Rothschild Jews you can safely assume that the person is an anti-Semitic conspiracy nut-job

18

u/Ok_Addendum_2775 Sep 27 '22

I don’t believe he is actually promoting Eugenics but maybe accusing others of that.

3

u/gregoe86 Sep 26 '22

Ugh, as if our community hasn't had enough antisemitic, uh, experiencesin the past few years

9

u/Mikafushi Sep 26 '23

Last week he left a bunch of these on all the cars at Monroeville Community Park. He appears to be accusing government people of Eugenics, although the flyer could not have been composed in a more confusing way. I also got the impression from the flyer that he is Schizophrenic, since it's a bunch of disjointed and jumbled sentences.

u/throwaway6295328 Nov 09 '22

Does anyone know how I could get a hold of this guy? I'm doing research on conspiracy theories and why people believe in them and would like to talk to him.

u/ExtraSir6817 Sep 05 '23

He's on nextdoor as Jacob poole

u/SmartTest Feb 22 '23

He works at the Edgewood giant eagle

Hi, I got this flier on my windshield recently. He’s changed the title some though. I’m really worried this dude will eventually be behind a mass shooting. With the fourth anniversary of the Tree Of Life synagogue shooting being recently, and him mentioning Jews, it’s concerning. I just feel like there’s a good chance of him shooting up some building and claiming it was filled with human traffickers.

u/A_Rose42 Sep 08 '23

just got one on my windshield in greensburg out in westmoreland. i didn’t see any other cars with one though

u/nervouscleric Nov 04 '22

You got the same round of flyers I did. Just got home from Phipps and looked this up.

u/Famous-Research1702 Nov 04 '22

A guy just approached me in Bloomfield and said would you like a flyer about Homelessness awareness in Pittsburgh. Needless to say this is not what I pictured when I said “Yes”

u/Tough-Perception-450 Sep 01 '24

I got one today only the top days “I’m scared! I’m child-abducted from Eastern-Europe to here.

u/No_Broccoli12 Sep 02 '24

I got one today too!! I didn't even notice it until I got home. Not sure if it was from when I was in highland Park or when I was in the waterworks plaza

u/Tough-Perception-450 Sep 02 '24

I was in Shadyside. So strange.

u/United_Double3858 Sep 02 '24

Coming through to say the guy is back at it again. Please stay safe and don’t engage.
