For years, conspiracy theorists made wild claims about 'chemtrails,' 5G WIFI, and geoengineering. Now, GOP lawmakers in several states have introduced bills based on claims by conspiracy theorists.
I had a neighbor that used to put out old water bottles around her front yard filled with vinegar to ward off chemtrails. She finally got rid of them when the neighborhood mocked it. 🙄
A statistically significant percentage of red state legislators are not qualified to be on the homeowners board of a one tent homeless camp. Also they have Institute in TermLimits which guarantees another empty headed brainwashed rube every 4 to 8 years.
Occupying the news and legislative agenda time with this kind of bullshit keeps them from addressing pertinent issues. The knuckle dragging constituency eats it up.
Erm… we grew up where cloud seeding with heavy silver iodide particles at the buildup to a devastating hailstorm caused the moisture to fall as rain, not ice. M’parents went from being 100% hailed out 8 years of ten to 2 years of ten. They stopped because it stole moisture from the next province.
It's to open up the door for other conspiracy-based, anti-science legislation. Just a matter of time before Republican legislatures start banning vaccines or criminalizing health care providers who administer vaccines. Why? The right-wing conspiracy ecosystem can convert this into clicks and customers for snake oil and political donations.
I find it interesting that you think these are "right-wing" conspiracy theories. Here in Alaska, the chemtrail nonsense is usually found in extreme left granola types. The right wing have their own conspiracy theories, but that isn't one of them...here.
Disciples of Depravity. The psychological warfare on the sensibilities of decent citizens is a real problem, the weapon of our enemies. The QOP's behavior is by design and well funded. What are you going to do about?
You did not answer the question posed in the title of this article. It feels like click bait leading to accusations of Republican idiocy. Not that those accusations aren’t justified, but a more honest headline would have been: “Republican State Legislators Pedal Unfounded Fears.”
But why they are doing this, and why now, remains a mystery to me. After all, I don’t want chemicals secretly released into the atmosphere for any of the alleged nefarious purposes either, and a law against it doesn’t bother me.
Is it just to confuse us? Distract us? Get attention? All of the above? Or something else entirely?
The GOP has become a living breathing onion article.
Aren't these the same people who don't believe that climate change is happening?
This is what happens when you elect the guy at the end of the bar.
