Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Make It Make Sense

 Yesterday, RFK Jr's brain worm forced out the head of vaccine regulations, Dr. Peter Marks, in favor of someone who was is not a doctor and was in fact cited for practicing medicine without a license. David Geier is, of course, a vaccine "skeptic" who thinks vaccines cause autism. 

Vaccines do not cause autism.

Meanwhile, Trump is rolling back regulations with regards to mercury pollution. Mercury - like most heavy metals - is a neurotoxin. It absolutely causes birth defects and brain damage. 

So...fuck I can't believe this is real life...Trump is firing a doctor to put in place a charlatan to push the lie that vaccines hurt your kids, while simultaneously allowing industry to pump an extremely poisonous chemical into the air and water.

Again, if his sole purpose was destroy America, what would he be doing differently?
