They’ve been lying about the reason the whole time. They don’t give a fuck how tested it is or what the results are, they want it off the market for ideological reasons. Right wing crunchy fash might honest to god be worse than the Evangelicals.
I watched the Evangelicals slowly turn into crunchy fascists, it was fucken bizzare. While I don't know the source the first sign I saw was Kent Hovind pushing "Vitamin B17" also known as de facto cyanide, basically it is a compound that breaks down into cyanide in the gut.
I think the “brainworm” is just conservatism… It attacks the education centre of the host and, over decades, renders them extremely dumb and pliable to its will.
