“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

Conspiracy Contradiction
How could COVID have been a leak AND a plandemic? How could Obama be all-powerful AND incompetent? Conspracism and contradiction go together hand-in-glove. But why?

If it feels like the chaos and nonsense from the administration are accelerating, they are. But the backlash against it is accelerating, too. 🧵 First, the chaos, with headlines just from today: — The founder of Blackwater has a plan to massively ramp up rendition to prison labor in El Salvador:

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

Closing rural post offices will do the same thing that closing rural schools has done: Empty out rural towns. Why? To sell off farmland for rock bottom prices to the oligarchs. Water and mineral rights and CAFOs polluting with impunity. It’s been the plan for decades.
