      The worm cannot allow a worm disease to be eradicated and will force his meat puppet to spread misinformation about it.

      we are seeing a resurgence of New World Screwworms. We eradicated it in the US in 1966, however, we have since seen a resurgence. Basically we used sterile males to make sure no new worms would be born in the US but thats a big border, so we worked with Mexico and other north and Central American countries to push it down past panama. Unfortunately when republicans find out we are spending money fighting disease in other countries, they think why help them? and kill funding. So now we are going to have to spend a shitload more money to defend our wide ass border, rather than a fraction of the cost defending a natural border.

        That’s the problem - they don’t think, but instead react according to their lifelong programming from bullying. They’ve been trained by their masters since childhood not to reason anything out beyond the shortest path to one of a set of predefined conclusions. It’s so instinctive by the time they’re adults (teens, really) that they have absolutely no clue it’s what they’re actually doing deep down.
