> [@octopus](#): > > How about following a woman to a bathroom stall to intimidate her? Like I already said, you don’t have to like or approve of liberals getting up in the faces of conservative politicians in public places to denounce their politics. And certainly illegal trespassing is indefensible. But attempting to equate this sort of ideological confrontation with, as I said, conservatives forming loony-vigilante death cults to stalk and harass public health officials merely for doing their damn jobs to protect the public during a deadly pandemic is just bullshit conservative “bothsidesism”. Get your fellow conservative ideologues to stop engaging in reality-denying anti-science fantasy cults as their basis for stalking and harassing public officials if you want to have a leg to stand on when complaining about liberals denouncing their political opponents in public places. ---

Getting to the moon involves science. Communication with those who believe everything in the world is part of a grand conspiracy requires drugs. ---

Hokay. Make it JFK’s stirring “going to the moon is too damn hard” (like trying to clean up your own party), “so let’s just go to Cancun instead” (like indulging in facile bothsiderist fallacies). ---

See this is some real profound truth, I’m just not certain that you meant it that way unfortunately. But this definitely applies to the Qanon/Anti-vaxxer folks.
