					<description><![CDATA[I think we&#039;ve got one that goes past that level of crazy. The women who is the QOP candidate for secretary of state here in Michigan says

&lt;blockquote&gt;“Abortion is really nothing new. The child sacrifice is a very satanic practice, and that’s precisely what abortion is. And we need to see it as such.&quot; [She continued] “When people in other cultures, when they engage in child sacrifice, they didn’t just sacrifice the child for the sake of bloodshed.&quot; [Further]“They sacrificed the child cuz they were hoping to get prosperity and that’s precisely why people have abortion now. ‘Because I’m not ready. I don’t wanna have a baby. I don’t feel like it. I don’t have time. I wanna make more money. I want my freedom.’ So you’re sacrificing that child hoping to get something out of their death, which is your freedom, your happiness, your prosperity.” &lt;/blockquote&gt;

HIgh quality stupid there already, but she also believes in demonic possession and said

&lt;blockquote&gt;“If a person has demonic possession — I know it’s gonna sound really crazy to me saying that for some people, thinking like what?! But having intimate relationships with people who are demonically possessed or oppressed — I strongly believe that a person opens themselves up to possession. Demonic possession is real.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Then there&#039;s the usual stuff: Soros is evil and funds no end of terrible things, premarital sex is terrible and should be penalized, she&#039;s a strong  backer of Q-anon, is still pushing the old Clinton kill list, the LGBTQ communty&#039;s real goal is the legalization of pedophilia, is a strong &#039;covid-19 was weaponized from China&#039; clown and so is an anti-vaxxer, and pushes the 2020 election was stolen lie that is popular among the lower IQ folks on the right (which seems to be most of them). There&#039;s more, but you get the picture. She is endorsed by the former white trash in chief. 

These are the asinine things you need to say to be considered a viable candidate for the right. Threats to democracy and decency, all of them.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Very worrying, no frightening what is happening to the USA. 

The late, but not forgotten, Carl Sagan wrote about the perils society was heading into propelled by dogmatism, ideology and ignorance in his &#039;The Demon Haunted World: Science as Candle in the Dark&#039;.

&lt;blockquote&gt;I worry that, especially as the Millennium edges nearer, pseudoscience and superstition will seem year by year more tempting, the siren song of unreason more sonorous and attractive. Where have we heard it before? Whenever our ethnic or national prejudices are aroused, in times of scarcity, during challenges to national self-esteem or nerve, when we agonize about our diminished cosmic place and purpose, or when fanaticism is bubbling up around us - then, habits of thought familiar from ages past reach for the controls.
The candle flame gutters. Its little pool of light trembles. Darkness gathers. The demons begin to stir.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Just one of a number of quotes at:
