At a time when all non-idiots worldwide are taking action to limit the spread
of the COVID-19 pandemic, a certain chorus of career idiots happily spreads
false information to create the idiot illusion that the idiot-in-chief Trump
is anything but a complete and catastrophic failure in every possible way.
Nevertheless, career idiot Ron Paul still manages to distinguish himself by
preemptively dismissing the disease which his idiot son has now contracted.
Idiot Rand Paul (Libertarian pretender who loves socialism for himself and
for his fellow rich idiots) made sure, incidentally, to exercise in the gym
with his Senate buddies and swim in the Senate pool while awaiting the
results of his test, which naturally came back positive.
So the idiot doesn’t fall far from the idiot.
I don’t believe in karma, but I can certainly find satisfaction in seeing
idiots having to face their idiocy. Of course, being idiots, they won’t
accept reality and will instead offer all manner of rationalization to
explain (to themselves) why they’re not idiots.
But they’re idiots.

I would just leave the customary ‘yep’, but posting won’t allow that
I’ve changed or modified my thoughts on a great many issues and stuff over the
years since we were all hard-core posting all the time in O.T-D.
But what fundamentally hasn’t changed is, ‘stupid people are stupid’
It happens no matter the political persuasion, country of origin, or even
educational status, and/or upbringing.
Ron Paul has, historically, been ‘stupid’ on a great many societal things. This
comes from his ensconced beliefs in his base suppositions that he wasn’t ever
willing to re-evaluate as time went on, in spite of the evidence that he should.
His understanding of societal issues, and methods to correct these issues, has
always appeared to be a mile wide, but an inch deep.
If we reduce the society to his base axioms, of course his solutions will work.
However, reality has never, nor will it ever, comport itself to his base axioms.
So you can work with the system as it presents itself, or you can ‘rail against
it’, presuppose your views are right, and shake your fist at the rest when they
don’t conform.
He’s always been ‘that guy’. He is still ‘that guy’ by his latest actions which
may negatively contribute to a greater impact in this crisis by, by his very
‘supposed libertarian actions’, potentially infecting more people.
You could have scripted this months ago. It’s not taking ‘leaps of logic and
rationality’ to assess this guy’s reaction in any given scenario. He’s made his
base axioms very clear, and you can then apply these axioms to hypotheticals.
Anyway, I’m now well past the ‘approved post count’, so I’ll post now :)
