Actually a hypothesis, but it’s interesting.

Chemtrails but it’s the sun

I’ve unironically come around to think that people worshipping the sun were not wrong
The sun’s pretty awesome
It may as well be our God. Sun dies out ? No chance of life.

I’ve dabbled enough in paganism to confirm that worshiping nature and the sun is a hell of a lot more meaningful than making up shit about God and wearing special hats.

Sun hat
BartyDeCanter@lemmy.sdf.org 10 months ago
Why not worship nature and wear special hats? Most of the witches I know do both.

I’ve said this for a few years as well. At least the sun is real. It provides life, it doesn’t even kill very many people, definitely doesn’t condemn anyone to an eternity of suffering.

The suffering of gingers in the sun is finite.

I’ve begun worshipping the sun for a number of reasons. First of all, unlike some other gods I could mention, I can see the sun. It’s there for me every day. And the things it brings me are quite apparent all the time: heat, light, food, and a lovely day. There’s no mystery, no one asks for money, I don’t have to dress up, and there’s no boring pageantry. And interestingly enough, I have found that the prayers I offer to the sun and the prayers I formerly offered to ‘God’ are all answered at about the same 50% rate.

I’m wondering if the leftists will actually believe this. They seem to latch onto every other meme that presents geopolitics as some overly simplistic pattern.
I think some on the right believes a major world war happens every 70 years (or something like that) and the pattern totally explains wars for centuries! Well as long you forget WWI and the Napoleonic wars happened…
Also I don’t think “intervention” means what you think it means.

Coincidence. They just wait long enough until the previous war is out of the people’s minds, or enough young people weren’t even alive when it happened to do it again. And again. And again.

Coincidence? Like the increase in global warming relative to the decrease in the number or pirates globally? I think not.

The politicians running the show and most of their voters are old enough to remember. Young people play less and less of a role in western politics.
