This morning, I got to enjoy some Leopards eating a dude's face.
Old friend of mine who I'm still connected to on FB. Super conservative catholic, former Air Force meteorologist. He has gone full Trumpy/conspiracy theory -- plandemic, the jab, "they" can't be trusted, all that shit.
But...he's still a trained meteorologist. So this morning, he posts about the absurd conspiracy theories that Hurricane Milton is government weather manipulation:
"An airplane with a doohickey cannot make nor steer a hurricane.
A lot of y’all need to get off the web and get your meds dialed in."
Initially, some of his friends/followers chimed in, agreeing. But then, the critical mass of the insane conspiracy theory crowd he hangs with overwhelmed him:
"you're wrong on this one....this tech has been around for decades"
"Pretty shocking how unaware of this you are, actually."
"https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTFPHWvkj/
This guy goes over the same info but the way he summarizes it is interesting.
Put that together with the plane seen flying for hours above that area and it has to make you wonder."
"Clearly you’ve not researched anything. But you could also look up in the sky. It’s called called Geo Engineering, it’s a cocktail of Aluminum Nano Particulates, Barium and Strontium 7. It’s been going on since 1948.
- The Patent office has all the patents listed. It’s public Information
- CIA chief Brennan has admitted to it.
- It’s now been banned in Tennessee and New Hampshire"
"It took a minute but I don't agree with you on this one. I do think there is some weather engineering or other contributing factors going on in our world today. I do not believe it's all just an act of God."
"There are also tons of these lines. I’ve watched a lot of hurricanes and never seen them. People are saying it’s because of electromagnetic waves. All this shit is plausible because we’re watching it."
"Critical thinkers have eyes & brains. Programmed humans have neither."
Some people chimed in "what about cloud seeding?" He explained in short form how the physics don't work when talking about a hurricane:
"cloud seeding is to hurricanes as farts are to tornadoes."
All to no avail. Just a CASCADE of people saying "nope, do your research."
I gotta tell ya, I am now amused to watch an ACTUAL expert/trained scientist in the field explain how the laws of physics simply preclude any of the batshittery they're talking about (the amount of energy involved in a hurricane is more than any device can interfere with). Not so funny now, is it? Dumbass, getting hoisted on his own "we can't trust the science!" petard. Fuck em all.
