I was really unprepared for how stupid the future would be.
This is what happens when you don't fund science education.
This is what happens when you remove the fairness doctrine and allow the alt-right propaganda "news" machine go unchecked.
Wasn't the fairness doctrine right wing propoganda already? iirc the point was to give 1 anti-vaxer the same voice as every single pro-vaxination researcher on earth combined.
There is a saying that reality and facts have a liberal bias. When Nixon was in the process of being impeached, conservatives found that if they can control the narrative, the facts, then they can control the conversation. It's no accident that they went to attack the fairness doctrine and it finally fell under Reagan.
It may have had a right wing bias, but they are the ones that got rid of it because they wanted to protect their echo chamber
no, this is what no child left behind does for 20 unchallenged years.
My brother is one of these idiots, I dunno how they got him. He's not part of the militia group but dipshit thinks a local radio tower that just went up is part of the weather control system...
Conspiracy theorists tend to fall in one of two categories, specially if it seems like a sudden change:
-
They're lonely and the people in the group are very welcoming to them.
-
They feel they need to prove how smart they are, and think they're smarter than everyone who dismisses their theory.
Have you considered sharing more of your crayons? You can fix him
The crayons are mine. They sustain me.
USMC?
Nah.
Missed opportunity
I'm sorry for you
Idiots and guns - name a more American combination.
Idiots and voting against their own best interests
That's currently a worldwide phenomenon.
Not true - Australia did it right.
I wish you were wrong
How is it that 2020 was more normal than 2025
Wait until they hear about the 6G anal probes.
...I wanna hear about 6G anal probes...
For science, of course.
Due to my job with an unnamed government entity, I am unable to disclose the immense pleasure that is coming your way. O_o
An armed militarized group planning potential attacks on a federal government entity... Why would the FBI not be picking every one of those idiots up?
Haven't you heard, we're not funding the FBI this year...
The United States: Into Darkness.
A people manipulated and driven to the edge of Discovery and Dishonesty. We will turn the lights out to fear that which we know... But in the darkness there is nothing to find but our people's vengeful hatred of each other. Ignorance is the weapon, and the lights shall stay out.
So what does man do? We starve. We suffer. We bleed, and then when all else is lost we scream. Not out of fear; for that is already gone. We scream because we are already in hell. And it's the devil staring us in the face designing the torture.
We aren't a phoneix, we don't rise from the dead. We are supposed to be humanity; and it's lost past time we become it. If you think humanity was designed to be built in the image of God. Are you mistaken?
I'm an idiot
Neitzshche is dead.
God is an Idea
Because the FBI is currently run by some of these idiots.
Yeah, he literally sells bs covid vaccine reversal pills hahaha!
too busy picking up every farm and construction worker they can
Shouldn't vets know what radar is?
"Vet" covers everyone from Air Force Tower Controllers to Navy Seals to the guy in charge of records in a basement in Alaska and more.
For 4 years active duty and 4 years reserve most people are involved in logistics or records, and few of those have to know anything about radar.
I did not know that.
I presumed it meant you'd been on the front lines, or seen combat.
You're not far off as it is the second definition of the word. "Vietnam vet" "Gulf war vet" etc.
In that context it just means deployed to ths conflict. Sometimes it means contributed to the effort while in the military. So someone who cooked on base in Vietnam would be a Vietnam vet, but someone who enlisted during the Korean war but was sent to Japan wouldn't be a korea vet.
Radicalizing Antenna Disguised As Radiotower
Duuuuuuuuuh 🤣
MAGAts are complete idiots.
AND brainwashed!
That sounds like something an institution that deploys weather weapons would say.
~~climate change and polution~~
Government conspiracy
