The meteorite of stupidity is making its way across the solar system, its destination Earth. and we summoned it by our actions as a species. Its arrival has been foretold and there’s no exit strategy, no fleet of spaceships to whisk us off to a habitable planet in the Alpha Centauri system, no time machine to catapult us back in time and fix things.
What has led us to this denouement, apart from the centuries of us messing about with the planet and the denizens of the planet?
It might be that the richest (declared) man in the world is a creature with all the appeal of a shop window dummy, who is as uncomfortable in his own skin as we are looking at him. This is a man that makes the Alpha Zombie from Army Of The Dead look like a cuddly aunt. If Elon Musk was a fragrance, it would be called ‘Loathe’. If Musk was a pair of shoes, they would be caramel-coloured slip-ons. If he was a kitchen item, he would be a mug tree. This self-proclaimed richest man on the planet does nothing that aids humanity with his fortune. There are no Hospitals, Libraries or Charities in his name. He Zieg Heils and has the haircut of a Hitler acolyte all while dressing like an Undertaker who has had to dip in the bargain bin at Primark.
Maybe it’s the fact that the President of the USA is one of the most grotesque people that have ever held public office. Those that call him an Orangutan based on his Orangeness should be hauled before a judge for slander on the basis that this is a slander on Orangutans. Trump’s utterances are only matched in terms of stupidity by the ramblings of Charles Manson, but without the charm. Trump makes Genghis Khan seem like a diplomat, he is to leadership what Olly Murs is to charisma. His family and entourage are straight out of The Stepford Wives via Invasion Of The Body Snatches with a big dollop of SS experiment Camp. The sort of characters that speak up in his favour and take to stages to laud him definitely fit into a type, and that type is Ivy League Psychopath meets The Hills Have Eyes
Trump’s followers seem to have been hypnotised into a state of not being able to see the obvious. They are incapable of rational or strategic thinking and feel emboldened by Trump’s two terms to come out with the most ludicrous of world views. America has never been so close to its population being chased with giant butterfly nets than at any point in its questionable history.
Iv'e not mentioned the various wars based on ideology where stupid people are killing each other, nor have I mentioned the rise in right wing thinking and misogyny, but you get the idea
As we head towards another extinction level event, we have more insight than the dinosaurs who were the last victims back in the Cretaceous period but that counts for nothing as it would seem that those with the capacity for rationality are very much in the minority. I was thinking we could go underground but that's no good as that would lead to an era of Morlocks, the human race would devolve into, well into MAGAS!
