    I love that I will now be exposed to infectious diseases for simply being relatively close to this shit hole. Diseases that were previously eradicated.

    Floridas surgeon general is proof positive that not all doctors are smart. Get a second opinion people, about everything that’s not just routine antibiotics

    At least they live in fear. Even if it’s fear from something that doesn’t exist, it makes me happy that they’re in fear. It’s like Elon living in fear of jeepers creepers. Trump living in fear of the Easter bunny. Mike Johnson living in fear of Jenna haze with a strap-on. I’m glad they fear something, and are getting anxiety that keeps them up at night instead of checking their Fitbit in the morning with a 90% sleep score. These people don’t deserve a peaceful night of sleep.

      Cowardice is the foundational core of Conservatism. Conservative means a refusal to change or innovate, because they are AFRAID of anything new, because it might be worse than what they have now. They are happy with their current situation, so they won’t allow anything to change and fuck it up, and that includes helping anyone else. So they are perpetually afraid of Democrats, Liberals, Leftists, Gays, Women’s private parts, immigrants, other religions, other countries, other races, smart people, Critical Thinking Skills, etc.

    Another special gifts religious idiot. Sky daddy’s angel babies talk to me on the regular and we’re being poisoned from the sky by dark forces, but it’s everybody else’s brains that have been swept away.

    Every day I get up and browse the news and I essentially get called a retard by people like this dipshit. It’s demoralizing, ngl.

    Ladapo is also a proponent of the chemtrails conspiracy theory about planes mass-dumping chemicals. She claims in the podcast interview that she and her children got sick because of chemtrails, and she used a patch that has been characterized as pseudoscience by medical experts.

    “As we try to chase down where this is coming from, who is funding the companies who are flying the planes, who are piloting these planes, where are they taking off? We don’t even know where they are, because none of this is on the books.” Ladapo said about chemtrails.

    No, you don’t know where they are because they aren’t things that exist in reality.

    Also, and this is probably my neurodivergence talking, but the thing that annoys me most about her husband is that he doesn’t wear clothes that fit. At all. And he’s so stupid, he doesn’t understand that he could amplify how professional he appears by a factor of 10, thus greatly increasing his perceived credibility, if he would just get his fucking suits tailored.

    I mean, yes, he’s also a raging moron, and he’s never going to actually be credible; but to me, that is the pinnacle example of how fucking dumb he really is.

    In the book, Brianna Ladapo claims she went on a “pilgrimage” trip to Egypt in graduate school

    Anyone know what this crazy bitch’s credentials are? Wondering what her area of “expertise” is.

    Edit: according to her blog she has a masters in English from Harvard.

      She isn’t stupid. The ridiculous rhetoric is based on how stupid she knows her audience is, and how powerless her opposition is to stop her. Orwell’s lessons on thought and language prove prescient.

      They aren’t that stupid. They think you’re that stupid. It would seem, on average, they are correct.

        Do you know how many Harvard lawyers are actively involved in this MAGA government trying to destroy America?

        I’m starting to come around to the idea that maybe we don’t need expensive Ivy League factories churning out a new crop of Psychopaths on an annual basis, and unleashing them on society, make them wealthy by oppressing the rest of us.

    Guys, I’m like her. I learned to trust my gut and stand on my own two feet. And I think they are mad and most of what they say ought to be ignored.

    The inch I would give them is that governments all over this planet have probably overreacted during the pandy. Which is easy to bitch about in hindsight but becomes often very easily comprehensible when you look at how decisions had to be made quickly, under pressure, never with all the information at hand, and being driven by erring on the side of caution. They may have been the stopped clock that was right twice a day on some of those pandemic restrictions. That doesn’t mean they are right about everything else. And we might need the magic castle to become the ground zero for a massive outbreak of easily avoidable diseases for more people to realize that. Aided by chem trails, I guess. JFC.

    The voices I hear tell me to look forward to hearing about the skeletons in the Ladapo closet. He might have an extramarital affair; she might be sniffing glue. Or they imprison their cleaner. A tax dodge at the very least. It’s going to be something even the angels couldn’t warn her about.
