The local conspiracy theorists are at it again.
Over the weekend, several of them were clucking because Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has announced a measure to ban cloud seeding, which they seem to translate as supportive of efforts to shoot down planes that have jet contrails.
Here’s one of them who somehow manages to connect chemtrails with bitcoin, florinated(sic) water, and hand-counting ballots. Because in their words – they are “evil”:
And it’s great they can find their validation in Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene. But this is also the “Jewish Space Lasers caused the California fires” Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene.
“Then oddly there are all these people who have said they saw vhat looked like lasers or blue beams of light causing the fires, and pictures and videos. I don’t know anything about that but I do find it really curious PG&E’s partnership with Solaren on space solar generators starting in 2009. They announced the launch into space in March 2018, and maybe even put hem up before that. Space solar generators collect the suns energy and then beam it back to Earth to a transmitter to convert to electricity. The idea is clean energy to replace coal and oil. if they are beaming he suns energy back to Earth, I’m sure they wouldn’t ever miss a transmitter receiving station right??!! l nean mistakes are never made when anything new is invented. What would that look like anyway? A laser beam or light beam coming down to Earth I guess. Could that cause a fire? Hmmm, I don’t know. I hope not! That wouldn’t look so good for PG&E, Rothschild Inc, Solaren or Jerry Brown who sure does seem fond of PG&E.”
If MTG is the kind of Republican they want to be, I think I’ll stick with Reagan Republicanism. It involves a lot less time being paranoid about made-up things in the sky.
Its important to remember theories are arguably provable while hypotheses are often mostly informed hunches so conspiracy theories are not theories at all — at best they’re conjecture and at worst they’re malicious prevarications, even slander or libel.
Despite being mostly water vapor contrails also contain unburned hydrocarbons and other organic compounds that fall as pollutants but the sheer volume of air travel produces the de facto result of albedo modification intentional or not.
Albedo? Great guy. Went to high school with him.
Braithwait’s rants are so stream of consciousness and rambling in nature that I genuinely question her mental health. Not a “kook” slam, but a genuine concern that she isnt well.
I heard South Dakota was getting rid of her and she was moving back to wherever she came from. We could be so lucky.
MTG is a bigot and idiot! Nut bags like her, Bobble Head Brandie, Sticky Tom and DJ Dylan (I can go on) are promoting this garbage. It’s sad what fools we have representing our state.
At least from what I have read she is a retired Air Force senior NCO with a great above and beyond record of service. What the heck happened?
One other former enlisted Air force vet who later served on our county BPOU board was a devout flat earther and also heavy into conspiracies. He and his other Libertarian buddies would spend hours trying to prove and convince others that the Earth was flat. I’m thinking you were in the Air Force. Did you not learn anything and what happened to you? Did you have a head injury?
They have taken over the party now.
This same flood has happened in the same river many times before, but this time…..chemtrails? Come on…..
Unfortunately the Reagan Republicans are losing to the MAGA state.
