Round 1 - surge in measles due to anti vax
Round 2 - surge in blindness due to staring at the sun to own the libs
Turn yourself into a dependent of the state to show how much of a cool conservative you are, or something.
Then cut their own funding because nobody gets a free ride, not even the kids.
And these people are spreading disinformation in the form of what's called coordinated messaging that illegal unvaccinated immigrants are the ones causing the measles outbreak! I've seen it all over Facebook.
Oh please fuck around and find out..
Thoughts and prayers for your retinas
I, for one, cordially invite them to.
The initial post comes across to me as intentionally crafted to spread and cause mischief. But, it's also very possibly an example of poe's law. When you so accurately mimic stupid, how can anyone tell for sure whether it's parody. It could just as easily be a real post.
It's coordinated messaging, a weaponized disinformation tactic.
You mean like when someone posts a scam link and another person immediately pops up and says that this is the best [scam name] they ever used?
Nope, it's when a group of disinformation twits post the same message on all their social media accounts to try and spread rumors.
Please think logically people... God has been doing volcanoes for a very long time & nowhere does he mention we need to not jump in them
Please think logically people... God has been doing water for a very long time & nowhere does he mention we need to not inhale his miracle life giving substance or breathe "air".
Sure, and mountains have been there for centuries, no reason why we shouldn't climb Everest despite the piles of corpses up there.
Well, piles won't pile themselves
Good thing he pointed at it, we would forget where the sun is if he didn't.
Clearly it burned his last living brain cell.
I think the amphetamines did that, but the sun certainly didn't help.
Anyone who wants to see the eclipse (if you're in an area that can see it) and don't have glasses go to a tree covered area and watch the shadows of the leaves on the ground, it's pretty trippy
This is what I saw, more or less, in 2017. The noticeable dimming and the crescent dappling was very interesting and eerie. We're in for about a minute of totality this time, though we're also getting predictions of clouds, so maybe no corona. :-(
I did this in 2017 too, but I also used a pair of binoculars to project a clear image on the ground. It was beautiful~
Watch the reflection in a black tub or bin filled with still water or hang a white sheet a few feet above your head.
The water mirror will be the better option to watch progress until totality.
Fuck around 👈we are here
Find out 👈we shall be here soon
It seems to take longer than expected
Nowhere in the Bible does God say you shouldn't jump into a wood chipper. Saying they're dangerous is just woke propaganda; actually it'll fix everything that ails you and I highly suggest all conservatives go and give it a try
“Please think logically…”
“god…”
🤦♂️
The top one is bait.
Here's a neat thing: It is entirely safe to directly view a total eclipse, the part where you only see the corona and not the actual sun.
Oh, if only there were a worldwide network of information resources that could explain to them what the risks are and how the glasses can be both prudent and enhance your experience! If only!
The biggest thing with the glasses is that if you wear them, you get to stare at the freakin' sun! That's awesome. Beyond that, you just have to make sure you put them on before totality is done, or look away before it's done to let your eyes adjust naturally. I sense that these dummies are exactly the ones who will stare at the corona until they see a split second sunrise that fries n-percent of their photoreceptors. It's fine though, I'm sure at least one of them will end up with a Jesus-shaped retinopathy spot.
Then they can put their eyeball on ebay.
God has been making arsenic for a very long time...
Fuck around and find out.
Wikipedia says the damage from this is mostly heals after a few months, so they will probobly be fine. Will be an intresting few months though.
The answer as to why it's dangerous is literally a single search away. It would've taken less time to search it up than spread this shit around.
You don't come to this conclusion if you're the kind of person to trust legitimate sources of information.
I've always wondered how this worked
Ya know I always figured that staring into the nuclear ball of gas providing earths heat was bad but I didn’t know the science behind it so thanks for sharing
It's no joke!
sun worship is the most sensible religion, because you can say "don't look at god or he'll dim your eyesight"
People that make these claims should be forced to do what they claim is safe
I saw one post on Facebook which said "measles is just a disease that you have to stay in bed a few days for". Like fuck off.
Of course it is. Ask any American Indian.
I hope a number of them destroy their vision.
I hope, but seems unlikely, that it sterilizes them before they can breed.
The sun is out everyday! Why not stare at it? /S
It's ok to look at during totality, but if any of the sun is peeking out it's dangerous.
