I wrote this whole-ass book about how our electoral politics have been long been manipulated by moral panics about secret societies & foreign infiltrators--and how metaphors of purity & bodily integrity have long been part of that, including our history of fluoridation scares, and, well, anyway.

RFK Jr. announcing that on the first day of Trump's second term they're getting fluoride out of the water, among other batshit things.

If they get the chemicals out of the chemtrails, they'll just be trails, and why even bother at that point? You'd put hard-working American chemical engineers out of a job with such a short-sighted policy!

Sounds similar to Theweleit’s “Male Fantasies,” which discusses psychopolical German history. I’ll check it out!

If they take the chems out of chemtrails, what will we call them?

When this sort of ranting came up, a chemist I know would point out that pretty much everything is a chemical. Like water.

So, they'll just be trails now? I don't get it. But then, I'm not the target audience.
