If a sitting member of Congress accused me of doing something like that, and it wasn't true, I would sue the crap out of em. Bill knows discovery wouldn't be kind to him.

I'd call you a liar then because I have pulled lonestar ticks off my own body.

Did not say he was doing it. But to simply dismiss things because they seem extremely unlikely doesn’t make sense at all in the context of leftists. They have repeatedly demonstrated their propensity for violence and their inability to be impartial.

You said some things, congratulations! All you did was prove you don't know much, but you did it!

Interesting that this thread is getting more pushback/skepticism than a lot of these usually do. Do you think it's the “pilots dropping millions of ticks” part specifically that people aren’t buying, or are people getting exhausted from every weird thing online immediately becoming a giant coordinated operation? or dubious of Burchett specifically? all of that?

It is exhausting.
However tiresome... there are no shortage of people who know better than us plebes... and some have the wherewithal to execute their ideas.
Setting ticks aside... you are aware of "ideas" to dim the sunlight, right? Talk about the potential, no, guarantee- of a cascade of ill effects damning populations near and far.

One of the main videos that these types are using shows a "tick" box that a guy flips over with his toe. Under that box were what people claim to be "ticks", nevermind that those "ticks" sat world records for the fastest moving ticks ever seen or looked a whole lot like ants.

I do think there’s probably a difference between “powerful people sometimes pursue risky technocratic ideas” and “there is currently a massive covert tick deployment operation happening all over North America” (e.g. Legend's observations seem worth considering). It feels like online discourse collapses those categories together pretty quickly sometimes.

The "idea" of such an operation has already been floated.
It's not an impossible endeavor, just highly unethical.
Add to that the desire- stated by BG himself- to infuse "vaccine" into foods so as to overcome "resistance" of those who would shun shots.
All of the ingredients are present. Idea, practical possibility, willingness, urge to overcome dissenters... I put nothing past them. Maybe the cake hasn't been baked yet, but the ingredients are on the shelf and the oven is warm.

That’s kind of what I mean. I think people are increasingly willing to entertain “there are powerful people pursuing weird/risky ideas” while also still having a functioning BS detector for evidence that looks sloppy or cartoonish once you actually examine it. A lot of these things probably get shared and emotionally processed way faster than they get closely inspected.

yeah, I think this is where a lot of the tension online comes from now. People see enough real examples of elite/technocratic overreach that “nothing is impossible” starts to feel emotionally true. But if we lose the distinction between “I could imagine this happening” and “there’s good evidence this is happening”, things can get sideways pretty fast.

It's late, I'm going to bed soon and don't wanna go looking everything up... but, off the top of my head, let's compile some evidence that this is not unbelievable.
1. BG and others find meat eating to be "bad".
2. BG is already into engineering insects (mosquitoes).
3. BG has already opined on ways to bend human obedience to his considered will (infusing vaccine into food).
There... just three pieces of evidence to show that inflicting Alpha Gal, or other issues, is not entirely "ridiculous".

Point taken. I actually think this is the more useful framing. There’s a difference between “this is so absurd it can be dismissed outright” and
“there is strong evidence this specific operation is occurring”. A lot of modern discourse seems to live in the giant blurry territory between those two things.
The hard part is figuring out what standards people should use in that middle territory without either becoming completely gullible or completely dismissive.
Know you're going to bed (g'night and thanks for the good responses), so your question is for the room - what do y’all think those standards should be?

Government? It’s laughable to even call it “Government” these days. The President doesn’t have much power either. The Elites do.

I don't have to think long or look this one up.
The standard should always be informed consent. Period.
Posted on 5/21/26 at 10:37 pm to SallysHuman
I agree on informed consent as an ethical standard for institutions/governments/etc. I was thinking more about standards for us as citizens trying to figure out what’s true in that murky middle ground between “totally impossible” and “definitely proven”, especially in confusing and misleading digital environments like OP arises in.

I think it was the state of Missouri that put in a lot of effort to track down and investigate the reports of tick boxes. They used wildlife and fisheries and other agencies. So far, I don't think anyone has come through with a viable "tick box" or other evidence that proves anything. They've solicited the public — the same public that made the initial reports — but nothing viable has come from it.
