I have a lot of friends that are ultra-wildly-conservative. They also buy in to a lot of the hoopla about our president being a communist and his desiring to indoctrinate our children and take away our guns. My mother-in-law even bought a handgun after the election last year… her reasoning was that after the election we wouldn’t have the right to bear arms anymore.
In my adulthood, I am beginning to realize that I am pretty reasonable, pretty logical, and unable to believe these kinds of wild conspiracy theories. It reminds me of the film Dr. Strangelove. General Turgeson orders a nuclear attack against Russia because he believes that they are responsible for fluoridation, which he believes will dilute his precious bodily fluids and take over the world. Of course, that is the irony of the situation in the movie, among all of the other ironies. For me, it’s very amusing and a direct mirror for all of the wild conspiracies floating around right now.
So, here’s to you, Matt Brown who thinks our president is trying to become a dictator. Here’s to you, friends who are worried about whether the new Supreme Court justice is a woman or a Hispanic. Have fun in the world of fantasy and conspiracy. You’ll like this video.
