the connection between the two might be more subtle than you think. bird flu has already jumped to cows and non infectious virus particles were identified in supermarket pasteurised milk. RFK endorses raw milk and is anti vaxx. Go figure.

Shit.

I know shit's bad right now with all that starvin' bullshit. And the dust storms. And we runnin' out of French Fries and burrito coverings. But I got a solution.

Oh snap it's the man himself! I love you el presidente!

My favorite dichotomy is found on things like hurricane Helene posts. The same people who say humans aren't affecting the climate say the gov is manipulating the weather.

Am I the only one who found a message of “hope” in Idiocracy? We start at a future dystopia approaching human extinction caused by following some of the worst trends in current society. Then a savior appears, and they’re smart enough to actually follow him? They’re able to overcome some of their worst natures and start on the road to recovery.

That's how you could tell it was fiction.

Silly Hollywood always insists on a happy ending.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago

I saw it and the journey to get there. Sad to be on this side of the journey.

They were moments away from killing him.

Also, some lab monkeys escaped in Florida recently. So, it looks like we'll be starting another trump presidency with another pandemic. It'll probably wait until he eliminates the pandemic response team again before it hits.

RFK won't be happy until polio returns. He'll probably wave the remaining samples of smallpox around to show it was fake too.

I keep trying to tell people. We do not live in Idiocracy, Idiocracy is a fucking utopia compared to what our situation is

[–] [email protected] 8 points 13 hours ago

Yeah stupid people wishing they had real solutions is a way better outcome than stupid people cheering for the worst outcomes thinking they are solutions

Yeah, we don't masturbate nearly as much and the news anchors aren't hot

[–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago

And they don't make Ow My Balls anymore.

Dont worry skroo!

Nah the stupidest timeline is simulation 28 where Elon Musk was able to capture the FDA and 30% of the US population was left mentally disabled by malfunctioning brain implants. Compared to those guys you're doing just fine simulation 19.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago

Dude, that's just what will happen in a couple years. There's no maybe about it.

Remember that time when we elected a literal idiot to be president and a million Americans died because of how fucking stupid he was?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 20 hours ago (10 children)

We were averaging one 9/11 every three days during Trump's pandemic. And that's just counting the deaths directly attributed to COVID, with the CDC and a shitload of states playing "don't test, don't tell" plus the delayed deaths due to cardiac injury I'm betting the death numbers were closer to 5x reported.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 12 hours ago

And yet people never even talk about it now. No memorial, no day of remembrance, no lessons learned, just right back into the arms of the seditious traitor who killed more Americans than all of our wars combined.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

Yeah but it's not like we could bomb the virus so what are we gonna do? We're Americans, after all, the only thing we can do is wage war. War on drugs, war on crime, war on poverty, war for independence, war to end slavery, war on Mexico, war on Spain.

That's why this time the plan is to get rid of a health ministery before the next pandemic hits.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 17 hours ago

Can't have high pandemic casualties if the pandemic is fake news and you've dismantled the agency responsible for coordinating testing!

Not So Fun fact:

Bird flu has killed 50% of the humans it's infected so far, and that same idiot is going to be back in charge.

And this time, our soon to be Secretary of Health has part of his brain eaten away by a worm.

And then we prosecuted him for crimes, convicted him, and then sentenced him to live in government housing for the next 4 years?

Shhh, everything I said is true don't ruin it for me with facts.

Here we are, "Idiocracy .001", folks. We are at the point where they haven't even realized that they need a person with an actual brain. It will get worse, much worse. Maybe they will pick a pedophile for attorney general. Oh, wait.

Welcome to the kakistocracy

RFK will replace vaccines with electrolytes, it's what plants crave.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

She probably won't get one since she called out Laura Loomer for ~~saying the quiet part out loud~~ being too racist
