Ignorance is the new coin of the realm.

Looking at the polling data we are in deep trouble. The Republicans want to return to childhood. What does that mean? Republicans love the idea that some godlike figure takes care of you. Mom and Dad used to make all the big decisions, then it was God, and now they want some dolt or con-man like Trump to do their thinking. Life is good when someone else does the major thinking. That is why so many love the military. Someone tells you when to get up, when to march, and then how to get killed. Thinking is painful and Republicans like to avoid it. If you think about it, you will surely die, get old, maybe get sick, or maybe fail. Far better to turn all that nasty thinking stuff over to Trump or God. Thinking can get complicated, but believing is simple. Why waste time figuring something out when a dictator will do it for you?

Our ship is sinking, our bodies have swollen from junk food, and our minds have shrunk from junk philosophy. Exercise involves not only the body, but also the mind. The mind needs good food, just like the body. Fox News is junk food Frank. Kari Lake is junk food. Sure junk food taste great, but it slowly kills you. Donald Trump eats junk food and spouts junk information. French fries, and Donald's lies, that is a loser's cocktail. 

Stand by the highway and count the dazed and confused. It is a simple process. Hold up a " Jail Trump" sign. The dazed and confused will give you the finger, shout obscenities, or give you a blast of smoke from their goofy truck. Quickly you will realize how many hopeless people there actually are. Those people want someone to lead them. They do not want to be responsible for thinking. They crave simple answers. Religion and Republican propaganda answer ever question. Normal, sane people, are toast. The ignorant reproduce at a higher rate than the educated. Think about the implication. The poor reproduce at a higher rate than those with sufficient resources. 

Now for some maybe good news. Kadizzle once read about an experiment where the experimenters bred dumb rats to dumb rats, and smart rats to smart rats. The dumb rats got dumber, and smart rats got smarter. The good news was when you put them together they came back to average pretty quick. However, we have a problem. The dumb rats now isolate themselves from the smart rats. The Tea Party is a perfect example, all the smart rats abandoned the dumb ones. That is society at large. Look at the insurrection at the Capitol, it was dumb rats associating with dumb rats. How many educated people do you think were with the Proud Boys. Go to a Trump rally, what do you find dumb rats associating with dumb rats. 

In nature animals are not too picky about who they breed with. Throw one bull in the pasture and all the cows will get the bull's genetics. Not the case with humans. The dumb ones will marry the dumb ones, and the smart ones will keep their kids away from the dumb ones. 

This whole theory has played out in under developed countries. Once you give people a better standard of living they start having fewer children. Education has the same effect. 

Kadizzle went down to the Jesus store yesterday. Remember that is where the Qannon guy is. The disciple was dressed very nicely in a suit. Inquiring why Kadizzle found out he had been to court in a custody battle over his little four year old girl. Disciple said he won custody. Kadizzle and disciple had been discussing how to teach his young girl to read. Kadizzle implored him not soak her mind in nonsensical things. Kadizzle tried to tell him to just spark curiosity. The little girl can turn out to have a good mind or the typical mind of a child soaked in home school nonsense. What a waste to fill a young child with mythology as real, conspiracy, and the whole silly fundamentalist religious nonsense.
