@CodyLibolt @Byzness @wokal_distance I understand the idea of “politics is downstream from culture”, and have enormous respect for that idea’s proponents. But I think it attempts to prove too much, and also plays to the preferences and biases of the church.

THREAD:

A friend of mine clearly has COVID: she’s exhausted, has lost taste and smell, etc.

For complicated reasons, she had five COVID tests in the last few days. Two came back positive, three negative.

But #FollowTheScience, right?

/1 The religion of Scientism is widespread now. Its priests (like Fauci) can do no wrong, and are never wrong, no matter how many times they’re actually wrong, how many times they contradict themselves, or how many blatant hypocrisies they indulge.
