J.D. Vance’s weird, anti-woke punchline fell flat at his own sleepy speaking event on Monday.
Vance held a rally at his former high school in Middletown, Ohio, where hundreds gathered to hear the missives of Donald Trump’s newly-minted vice presidential candidate. But, even as a hometown hero, the Ohio senator suffered some brutally awkward moments.
“It is the weirdest thing to me: Democrats say that it is racist to believe—well, they say it’s racist to do anything,” said Vance. “I had a diet Mountain Dew yesterday, and one today. I’m sure they’re probably gonna call that racist, too.” Around the room there were some scattered laughs.
Laeded gasoline is my guess. We put so much brain damaging shit into the air that decent portions of a couple generations have mental issues like this.
A good percentage of the current republican politicians are too young to have directly had their brains damaged by that, but their parents and the constituents they’re trying to woo all had the damage, so it’s likely either they were traumatized by their parents or they’re just being stupid to seem more relatable to the constituents.
I’m beginning to wonder if micro-plastics aren’t going to be our leaded gasoline. If they really do cross the blood brain barrier, I can’t imagine that they wouldn’t be impacting us long term with cognitive and behavioral variances.
Don’t forget the forever chemicals, too! We fucked humanity so we could have non-stick coatings!
Also Covid. Every infection can reduce the IQ by a couple of points.
