MAHA: Make America Half-Witted Again
Germs Are Not a Real Thing
“Sometimes I really want to be alone
But that's one state I'm never in
Because I know that I've got millions upon millions
Of tiny, one-celled organisms living on my skin”
--Weird Al Yankovic: Germs
"I don't really wash my hands ever, I inoculate myself. Germs are not a real thing. I can't see them; therefore, they are not real." –Pete Hegseth (nominee for Secretary of Defense)
"One of the things that you write so beautifully, and your stuff is so fun to read, but you write about Trump, quote, 'The way that you build a truly vicious nationalist movement is to wed a relatively small core of belligerent idiots to a much larger group of opportunists and spineless fellow travelers whose primary function is to turn a blind eye to things.'" -- RFK Jr (Quoting Matt Taibbi)
As early as 460-400 BC, humans understood that diseases could spread from one person to another. Thucydides, is one of the first “documented scientists” to discuss ‘plague,’ although it is safe to say that indigenous cultures knew long before this that disease spreads between humans.
It wasn’t until the late 1700s and mid 1800s that “Germ Theory” developed thanks to the Microscope, when humans were able to see microorganisms. Microscopes existed well before the scientific exploration of microorganisms and did not take hold until the mid-1800s when light was introduced.
Remember who fought science since the very early beginnings of research. The Church. Science threatened the Church and its financial and psychological hold of the masses. The simple idea that the Earth was not the center of the universe led to Galileo and Tycho Brahe facing a Roman Inquisition. Even though the knowledge of a “heliocentric” solar system goes back to ancient Babylonia.
The Church and the Vatican has been at odds with science for centuries. The Vatican did not establish The Pontifical Academy of Sciences until 1936.
It wasn’t until the 1920s that it was proven that our solar system was not the center of the universe. This is how narcissistic humans are. We first believed that Earth was the center (because the Bible said so) and then after that was disproven, we believed the solar system was the center of the entire freaking universe. The universe!
A Celebration of Ignorance
“…the aimless blade of science slashed the Pearly Gates” –Neil Young: Thrasher
We have been fighting the type of people behind Project 2025 for centuries. They want us to believe in invisible people in the sky. We just want the data, common sense. As Thomas Paine, the author of Common Sense, stated:
“All national institutions of churches, whether Jewish, Christian or Turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions, set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and monopolize power and profit.” --Thomas Paine
Which brings us to 2024, where a dude who thinks “Germs are not a real thing. I can't see them; therefore, they are not real," and a guy who spreads anti-vaccine misinformation. Neither man has ANY scientific experience or knowledge. One is a white nationalist (Christian Nationalist) who thinks the wimmins should be at home baking cookies and making sandwiches and not fighting wars. The other, a crackpot who spreads right-wing fever swamp lies and misinformation.
One for the Secretary of Defense, the other to oversee Health and Human Services?
Because we have perhaps the dumbest population on planet earth, these things don’t appear to be insane. It is safe to say that Covid broke, not just the United States, but the world. It led to the ‘Covidiots' vs 'Covidians’ debate.
Never mind that vaccines have cut deaths and childhood deaths around the world. A conspiracy just “feels” better than “facts.”
“A May study in the Lancet estimated that vaccines against 14 common pathogens have saved 154 million lives over the past five decades—at a rate of six lives every minute. They have cut infant mortality by 40 percent globally and by more than 50 percent in Africa.” —Scientific American
South Park summed it up best, it was a period of Shellfishness:
One camp saw it as doing the right thing to protect their fellow citizens while the other refused to live under the boot of the Derp State.
It is possible that this era will hearken back to the days of the 1980s and 1990s where the “Christian Coalition” and the “Moral Majority” routinely shit the bed. One after another, these holier-than-thou Chuds went down in scandals of screwing their secretaries or male escorts and routinely accused of sexual assault and molestation.
The one thing we know about these heinous “Christian” cretins is they have an affinity for prostitutes, pedophilia, child porn and sexual abuse/assault. Praise Jesus!
Of Parousia, Premillennialism & Pathogens
The people behind Project 2025 believe they are preparing us for the Second Coming, or Parousia. They are called Premillenialists. The country and culture have already spun out of control and is in Satan’s death grip. The only solution is to purify the nation in the name of Jesus. We will all be saved and Jesus will return as the Messiah.
All of this has been foretold in the Holy Book of MAGA, where GEOTUS arrives to save the country from itself.
The evidence of the return of the King is everywhere. The dwindling participation in the Church, the LGBTQ ‘community,’ ‘liberal higher education,’ the ‘media.’ Everywhere we look we can see civilization decaying before our eyes…all because people have forsaken Christ…the ONE true “Sun of God.”
Never mind that there are no less than 15 (Gods/saviors) born of virgins and who died on crosses and were resurrected after three days. THOSE saviors were planted by Satan himself to distract true believers from the only REAL savior. The one with blonde hair, blue eyes, white skin and a perfectly trimmed beard.
The scientific fact that they are all born on December 25th, the day when the Sun is reborn for the Northern Hemisphere (the Winter Solstice), is just a strange coincidence. Here is the astronomical reality of the Star in the East (Sirius) and the Three Wise Men (Orion’s Belt) and the “Sun” being born on the Southern Cross.
We can’t see germs, but should we believe in invisible sky friends? A pathogen, as a noun, is defined as: “An agent that causes disease, especially a virus, bacterium, or fungus.” If anything can be defined as a pathogen, it is religion. A concrete agent of belief that closes off a person’s mind to exploration and accepting new data.
And this Parousia won’t be some namby-pamby, ‘feminized’ Jesus. No, he is coming with a sword and laser eyes, he’s been doing CrossFit for two thousand years…he’s back and he’s jacked. This Jesus is going to be bashing heads, kicking ass and taking names.
The vaccine against this insanity is education. Read books. Learn things. Expand your knowledge. Read science, read technology, read classics. Heck, read fiction, take an escape…you will still learn something. Be a Bookworm.
If you want a country truly based on “The Founders,” then become like Thomas Jefferson. “Thomas Jefferson called bibliomania – the irresistible urge to collect and read books (Jefferson had several thousand volumes in his personal library).” — Douglas T. Kenrick, Psychology Today
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” --Nelson Mandela
But if you check out that book from the library, get the Lysol spray. “Hey, don't touch that - you don't know where it's been!”—Weird Al
2 Thessalonians 2:9 is pretty wild considering Satan is referred to as “the lawless one”.
