I’m a “Fuck You” sort, trailing a Fuck It”

..

I mean, we’ve been told that every year the climate is heating up, hotter and hotter….Seas were gonna inundate the coastal cities because the glaciers were melting and the Poles were gonna be ice free in just another (and another) few years…

But now we find out that the poles are GAINING ice, and glaciers are GAINING ice mass. ...Bigly.

One might think that the climate doomsayers are lying or incompetent…ya know?

And we are still waiting for the JFK files, and the Epstein lists.

Where is Pam Bondi?

To all the Moms out there.

Thanks

So the girlfriend came home from WalMart complaining that the cashier was a real bitch….

I pointed out that she generally goes through the Self Checkout….

The “Chemtrail” folks, when pushed, couldn’t come up with anything substantive….

In fact, when the hard questions were asked, they faded away like Homer Simpson into the bushes.

I expect that if I asked the same from the “Vaccines are all bad” crowd, they’d do the same.

Not every conspiracy theory is wrong, but most are…..Most have their basis in fear and ignorance…Most of the followers of a particular conspiracy theory just can’t use logic, refuse to think critically and don’t bother to think clearly or use science..Their sources are anecdotal, and the “studies” they quote are poorly done with few rules or standards  And it shows…It’s more like a religion.

And the worst part is the reinforce each other like women gossiping. What appear to be intelligent people go off-the-rails when it come to things like “chemtrails” and the “Vaccine Conspiracy”… They just repeat what others have said….

They never have anything substantive, nor can they provide those critical things like details…All they have is innuendo and anecdotes from someone that they don’t know who they heard about 5th-hand or saw in X or Facebook, but whose credentials they have no idea about….and when pressed they act like 7th grade girls in an argument, twisting and squirming and deflecting, but never answering. They BELIEVE because they need something to fear and to talk about.

Sad, really.

It is fun to mess with them though.

Is today…..80 years ago.

Many many men in the armed forces breathed a sigh of relief when the end of the war in Europe was announced.
