This man is insane:

In an interview with Rosanne Barr, he seemingly without emotion said,

“So I pulled over and I picked up the bear and put him in the back of my van, because I was gonna skin the bear,”

“It was in very good condition and I was gonna put the meat in my refrigerator.”

“I had to go to the airport, and the bear was in my car, and I didn’t want to leave the bear in the car because that would have been bad,”

“the little bit of the redneck in me” thought I have a bear carcus and a bike I need to get rid of, why not put both “in the bike lanes.”

“I wasn’t drinking, of course, but people were drinking with me who thought this was a good idea,”

“So we went and did that and we thought it would be amusing for whoever found it, or something.”

They’re locked in a decades-long cycle of abusive extraction.

American religion, politics, economics, and ecology are reaching the limits of an unsustainable system that only knows how to extract wealth and power. The Soviet Union collapsed for similar reasons. Above all, that form of government collapsed under the weight of propping up The Party’s false reality and its debts to the truth. Real operating principles flow from hard-learned evidence, experience, and wisdom. Societies simply cannot operate indefinitely from convoluted principals engineered to benefit only the few. This is the flaw in the philosophy behind modern conservatism - it’s fundamentally abusive.

People stick with the devils they know. When long-term planning is negated by the cognitive load of navigating abuse, it can be almost impossible to adapt to new sustainable modes of thinking and living. When the house of cards collapses, those unable to adapt cannot be saved.

Let’s not send anyone to Iran, unless they are an IAEA inspector moderating enrichment activity under an international nuclear arms treaty.

Jenny (the boat) survived colliding with the dock and survived a storm that destroyed the rest of the shrimping fleet, leaving Forrest and Lt. Dan to be lifted from poverty, allowing Lt. Dan to reconcile with God and his self-hatred.

Google already has more money than God, and is monetizing AI to kill God and steal his money.

Has this guy even seen this movie?

Every single one of this man’s ideas is an attempt to use pop-folk medicine to kill and replace real healthcare reform in America. It’s not a coincidence that each of his “remedies” replaces actual healthcare with a version costing fewer tax dollars, which can then be redirected into tax breaks for billionaires.

His ideas sound insane because they are hyper-normalized - a false reality attempting to mask truth.

Perhaps that we still somewhat have free will in what to view through this technology is a good sign?

I don’t know man, I’m just trying to find a silver lining here. :/

Starer is a board certified obstetrician and gynecologist who has a subspeciality in addiction medicine. She was primarily a practitioner of addiction medicine before her arrest in 2022.

What I can’t imagine is being intelligent and empathetic enough to be a board certified medical doctor, and then completely embracing such a toxic, hateful, and simplistic political ideology. How does all that intelligence and experience fail to transfer?
