It’s so insane that so much crazy shit is coming from this administration that this was last week and it seems to be barely covered.
This guy references Alex Jones level stuff, and he’s the HHS Secretary.
I mean…what even the fuck is happening.
I mean…what even the fuck is happening.
Americans chose one of the most visibly immoral, inept and ignorant person to be president TWICE
All of this was visible 16 km away (10 miles), the biggest concession I can grant here is the disbelief it could actually happen
But happen it did, in the same way the UK shot itself in the foot with Brexit, the USA did even worse and ate the poisonous mushroom. I honestly can’t see a way this does not end in WWIII and/or the break up of the USA
If you think about it, the best way to stop a momentous beast isn’t to focus on the momentum, it’s to focus on the head and where it’s going and then the momentum fizzles out on its own. Republican mantra has always been to make government as ineffective as possible so they can look at government and correctly assess that it’s ineffective. Previously they worked to starve departments of resources, and they’ve already done that to the extent that it wasn’t even legal. New strategy in Trump and beyond is just to appoint clowns and make the world’s biggest clown show in each of their respective agencies. The anti-government shit writes itself when you’ve got the likes of Malory McMorrow saying, “Medicare for all means someone like Trump would control it, do you really want that?”
You are still clinging to the idea that there is a plan here and it is not just a display on how mediocrity took over
mediocrity took over
Even mediocrity from the cons, while not great, would at least be a lot better than this.
These people all seem to be some of the most maliciously stupid and/or unqualified that they could find. If they have any capability, it’s put to the task of carrying out evil: shitheel psychopaths like Vought and Miller as a for-instance.
When they don’t even have any capability they end up like Brainwormz here. A guy who is supposed to be looking out for health who looks and sounds terrible, has strange hobbies (dead whale heads, anyone? How about a bear carcass?) and even stranger beliefs - who needs that germ theory of disease, amirite - and says absolutely crazy shit - he can spot mitochondrial damage, talks about the “vaccine injured”, yells at reporter that she is not a scientist when he obviously has net negative credentials, and blurts out shit about chemtrails.
At least someone who was mediocre would probably tend to just agree with experts, vs. think they know better.
These people all seem to be some of the most maliciously stupid and/or unqualified that they could find
In my life, I have found that, the more ignorant someone is, the deeper their malice can get. We should really live in a society where being ignorant is as shameful as pooping your pants in public
I would think an awful lot would change if the business model around most media (news, movies, TV) were different.
But, as it is, I think most media really tip-toes around things that may make the ignorant uncomfortable, since they want to sell soap and boner pills to those people as well. Zeus forbid those people were to be told their beliefs were wrong.
Allowing advertising during the news really broke everything.
It turned into chasing viewership for revenue instead of providing the national service that being granted a broadcasting license required in return.
It’s called a firehose of falsehoods, and is designed to flood people with so much bullshit that they give up and stop paying attention to everything.
Gish Gallop
If we get through this administration as a country, I just wanna stay alive long enough to see all the documentaries making fun of this bat shit crazy stuff. My fear is this is now the baseline as we hurl to the more prophetic future of Idiocracy.
I mean…what even the fuck is happening.
Chemical combustion?
How many US states have banned water vapor?
And is the earth really a sphere? really?
I put things like this in the same category as renaming Lake Ontario and the Gulf of Mexico, something absurd to keep the attention off the real harm being done. Even if they made a declaration that planes are all dumping stuff to turn the frogs gay or whatever tommorow, the burocratic effort to do anything with it would take well beyond any of these loon’s tenure and then be dumped directly after.
Congrats on waking up from your coma
A day spent looking at chemtrails is a day spent not looking at real problems.
Every other day, there’s a new food scare.
Sounds nice. I would like to get good and stoned and look at contrails too.
By the way - why does he call them chem trails? the “chem” is water vapour
I mean… water is a chemical. So that’s something he’s not wrong about. Which gives this a rarity value I suppose.
So should we be thankful he’s not fucking those up worse, or…?
His job is to divert attention from all the food poisoning scandals with stuff that doesn’t actually matter.
Are you implying that a cabinet member of the United States federal government is not acting in good faith?
Yes. The (modern?) far-right is quite infamous for acting in bad faith, all while demanding to be seen as acting in good faith.
Dude looks more microwaved than usual.
He probably just dropped out of a Chem trail.
It’s like he’s bathing in beet juice or something.
He sorta looks like a radish.
XD as of now I will be using microwaved as an adjective. Thank you.
There are chemicals in chemtrails.
Most of what you see in a chemtrail is hydrogen hydroxide. (CAS 7732-18-5)
Hydrogen Hydroxide is a solvent that will dissolve a great many things, including some rocks. It causes corrosion, especially when mixed with sodium chloride. (CAS 7647-14-5) Gaseous HH will cause disfuguring burns upon skin contact. HH has been found in tumors, and brain worms. It’s used as a coolant in industrial applications. Breathing hydrogen hydroxide can cause death.
I think if you’re worried about chemtrails, you should avoid all exposure to hydrogen hydroxide for the forseeable future.
Just so we are all on the same page, to be painfully clear: this is satire.
So… Should I stop drinking industrial coolant or not?
I wouldn’t worry about it. Been bathing in it for years and I’m practically made of the stuff at this point.
We switched to swisscool recently and my hands have never been so smooth.
I thought it was painfully clear. :-( I even included chemical abstract society numbers so these dangerous chemicals could be resarched.
Wow, I knew dihydrogen monoxide was pretty nasty stuff, but this hydrogen hydroxide sounds so much worse!
I know this is supposed to be satire, but the nitpicker in me wants to add “needs citation” everywhere
Chem-trails are like space-lasers, they’re so stupid, they wouldn’t even work if they were real.
If you’ve ever noticed that industrial buildings use tall smoke stacks, you know why. It’s because that smoke dispersed into the atmosphere @ 50m will be diluted to safe(er/ish) levels by the time it reaches ground level.
Now if you’re trying to release a pathogen or a drug, doing so at 19,000m is the kind of stupid that wears a helmet to watch TV.
Why wouldn’t lasers work in space??
To my understanding, (I’m not a physicist) It’s not so much that they wouldn’t work in space as they’d be severely weakened upon entering our atmosphere. It would be both cheaper and more effective to simply use a conventional explosive than it would be to invent a sci-fi super weapon.
Ohh, you mean as a weapon.
Because I’m pretty sure lasers are currently being used by us in space. But for communication
You can’t spell epstein without “looking at chemtrails, not epstein”.
You can’t spell chemtrails without Epstein, maybe?
I mean, I also look up at water vapor in the sky. It’s fascinating.
Conservatives are dumb as fuuuuuuuuck.
Dumbass, look at pesticide use and power plant pollution, actual existing health threats!
He did and said they are obviously okay, then took his grandkids swimming in them
I think that was contaminated with feces.
Did we get the final results on what causes Autism? Shouldn’t he finish that conspiracy theory before moving onto chemtrails, or did he just move on when it turned out that thing he heard on facebook that one time wasn’t really the cause?
Chemtrails cause conspiracy theories
No doubt
RFK Jr is huffing fucking chemtrails
Let’s hope he stands behind an eng8ne with his mouth open to test.
Also RFKJr: “I am a driveling moron.”
Reminder that “”“chemtrails”“” behind planes in the sky are water condensation trails (also called contrails) which forms due to the air pressure drop over the top of the wing. It is the same phenomenon as the small cloud produced by the pressure drop when quickly opening a can of a carbonated beverage
Most of it is just engine exhaust, which has a lot of water vapor, mixing into the very cold air.
What you’re talking about happens as well, but that’s not what you’re seeing in the sky for the most part.
You see it also coming out of pickups on cold days, so pickups are turning frogs gay.
Once you give up on the principle of evidence-based reasoning, everything is on the table. You can speculate about whatever insane bullshit you want and it doesn’t have to make sense.
