    IF there is a chemical that “disconnects” you from GOD, then there must ALSO be a chemical that “connects” you to GOD.

    LSD?

    So whenever you see someone with a lot of teeth missing and the ones still there yellow and brown, you know they are connected to God. All people in heaven have bad teeth. Wait a minute… Is England heaven?

        Ah, the Hollywood anchorman smile, or cheap car salesman smile. Creepy AF.

        In Dutch there’s a saying “wie mooi wil gaan moet pijn doorstaan”, translated “who wants to go pretty needs to endure pain”. But these days with all the botox, bleaching, fillers, lifters, etc it’s more like “endure pain to become a plastic toxic nightmare”.

          It used to mean that for getting buff or just some hair removal. But yeah. Body dismorphia is actively promoted because it makes money.

            Yeah the marketing ghouls have worked out that making people feel scared, angry, and sad means they’re more likely to impulsively pay for stuff they don’t need in a panic or out of desperation.

            Funny thing is it used to be trying to get the consumer into a happy and relaxed state so they felt they could depart with some of their disposable income to “treat themselves”.

            Now that more consumers don’t have disposable income, they’re leaning more heavily into preying on insecurities and fears.

    I’ve always enjoyed how God is simultaneously portrayed as all-powerful and all-knowing, yet extremely fragile and petty. There’s the “wrong” kind of relationship, heavy metal, now fluoride, and the list goes on.

      That reminds me of the fascist playbook, where the enemy is both strong and weak.

      Maybe we should just call it the “lying to control others” playbook.

    “Fluoride disconnects one from God,” a listener with the username “Peter & Melissa BioHacking Stem Cells” wrote during one call. As part of his agenda, Kennedy has directed the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to review the use of fluoride supplementation in water supplies.

    Ok, yep, this is the kind of insane, nutjob “Christianity” I grew up in and around.

    These actual lunatic people just make up their minds that… something they don’t like, for reasons that they know are nonsense, it just gives them an ‘ick’ for some reason… yep, its just haram now, its demons, because God told me personally when I prayed about it one day.

    This is American Christianity, a gigantic ego trip for mentally ill people, and you’re an anti-religious bigot if you criticize their anti-logic, their fever dreams.

    Oh how I wish that all 100 million Americans who believe Trump is part of God’s plan just actually had been raptured, I am so beyond tired of dealing with these people’s aggressive and hateful delusions.

    EDIT:

    it is very funny to me that a year ago, on lemmy, i had liberal boomers tut-tuting at me when I would say things like “no, you don’t get it, roughly one third of America fundamentally thinks democracy is stupid and would prefer a theocracy with American state propoganda characteristics”, and then back that up with statistics.

    Pshaw! What a ludicrous notion! The idea that you could suggest-

    shhhhh its time to retire now, liberal boomer, retire from having agressively delusional opinions, shhhhh no you don’t get to actually retire, no, your house isn’t worth what you think it is, no, your investments aren’t going to be enough, shhhh its ok, your mindless self indulgence didn’t work out so well, just like we all told you it wouldn’t, shhhhh, its time for bed.

      50% of Americans are delusional religious nuts, not unexpected they would become our leaders. It’s very sad to see, religion really harms society.

        Religion is the single most regressive thing to ever happen to our species. We’d be so much more advanced by now if it never existed.

    This is why aliens don’t stop to communicate with us. They see what kind of trash we’re producing as a species and letting rise to the top of our social structures and they just move on to the next solar system.

      Douglas Adams was right about the hyperspace bypass, it just goes around us rather than through our system. Earth is the galactic equivalent of a shitty racist map dot town in Arkansas

      Or maybe nobody ever makes it to interstellar travel. They always end up destroying themselves first, like we’re currently busy doing.

        This is probably it. I’m sure greed is a thing with all sentient beings and greed always leads to destruction.

          It’s highly suspicious that we can’t see ANY evidence of an interstellar civilization considering how far we can see. Over 13 billion years, and nobody in visible range is flying big ships around or anything? I’ve no doubt intelligent life is out there, but SOMETHING seems to be keeping all of it from doing a Star Trek.

    Anything this guy says is bullshit, I’ll do the opposite of whatever he says, after all I am just as much of a doctor as he is.
