The many delusions of those who would either rule us or exterminate us are not political issues, they’re mental health issues. From el gato malo at boriquagato.substack.com:
and how to once more inhabit our own society
for those not currently close enough to smell the burning wires of the conflagration cum confluence of the covid cultists and the “team fragile” woke warriors, please allow a gato to play the virgil to the public dante and give you a tour of the nether regions of the impending collapse.
we begin with t ryan gregory, purported “Professor of evolutionary biology. Monger (fear and/or fish). Come for the science, stay for the brilliant wit and humility. Assume sarcasm. He/him” who stands to the pulpit to proudly preach that which can only be described as pseudoscience and twaddle.
he has missed the whole of the debate and run off into a field of straw men as he attempts to equate a statement that “there is no evidence that masks protect from covid or from wildfire smoke” with “well then you must WANT me to breathe wildfire smoke!” as though telling someone that being mentally dependent on a tinfoil hat to keep tigers away that their headwear is pathological rather than functional somehow implies hope that they are eaten by panthera tigris.
but what are we to call superstitious faith in and dependence upon false solutions if not a mental health issue?
it’s certainly not science.
science is about evidence and the evidence for this superstitious supplication at the altar of the mask is lacking. this is the pre-enlightenment, pre-baconian thinking we have come to expect from “team talisman” but what i’d like to really focus on here is not so much the deluded devotion but rather the angry projection.
Like an out of control Hunter S. Thompson LSD trip but not nearly as funny or entertaining and the visuals are ugly and degenerate.
Reality is not optional and it will not be defeated.
Détente is the way.
