The Marjorie Taylor Greene thread.

[Armitage72]

Greene says that SARS-CoV-2 must be a bioweapon because God wouldn't create it and she doesn't believe in evolution.

Greene made the remarks during an interview on Steve Bannon’s podcast in which they discussed COVID-19 origin theories. Bannon asked her if she believed in gain of function research, in which scientists deliberately enhance pathogens in a lab to study them and prepare for future pandemics. She responded:

"No, I don’t buy it because I don’t believe in evolution. I don’t believe in that type of so-called “science” [uses air quotes]. I don’t believe in evolution, I believe in God and these viruses were not making people sick until they created them and […] weaponize these viruses to be able to attach to our cells and make us sick. This has caused so many people to die all over the world. This is a bio-weapon."

*Shrugs* Most of Congress probably doesn't believe in Evolution, just by playing the statistics. She's not worst for saying it out loud.

So how does she explain the Spanish flu, smallpox, etc.?

Or the ten plagues?

 

[Stacyhs]

I wonder how all those viruses like smallpox and flu and that killed people before the 20th century were created by humans? Those scientists in the Middle Ages had far more sophisticated labs than we knew!

Does she also think God didn't invent bacteria or just viruses?

MTG doesn't think "God would do that" but I'd bet you she thinks God created the HIV virus to punish all those 'sinning, pervert homos'.

MTG is really working hard for the title of "Most Stupid Person in Congress" title. Gohmert had better watch out as she's coming up fast.

 

[JoeMorgue]

Yeah we've literally put more actual thought into it in the last 4 posts than she has her entire life.

God works in mysterious ways, what more do you need?

 

[Trebuchet]

HIV, of course, is easy. It's God's punishment for gay people. And heterosexuals in Africa.

Accuracy requires that attributing the bolded part to her is a stretch beyond her words, even if one suspects she believes it.

Yes, that was my translation of "I believe in God and these viruses were not making people sick until they created them".

 

[Andy_Ross]

Imagine having to host a press conference to announce you just learned the Holocaust was very bad

 

[Craig4]

Wow, MTG just showed a near human self-awareness.

She is not self-aware, she is a P-Zombie.

The bubonic plague was around long before Wuhan labs was built. LONG before. So I guess that God gave rats and fleas microbiological warfare technologies??

If you brought that up to MTG, she'd claim that she was talking about viruses only and that the plague is caused by a bacteria (after someone with some intelligence explains to her the difference between a virus and bacteria).

So... Smallpox? Syphilis? Other diseases of ancient lineage?

She is a walking pit of ignorance.

Of course she is. She's an idiot. I'm certainly not arguing that she isn't. But nitpicking: syphilis is also not a virus but caused by bacteria.

To her, it is a "Chinese virus" even if it is an actual virus, bacteria, or tapeworms.

She probably thinks Sweet and Sour Chicken is a bioweapon.

 

[The Great Zaganza]

She probably thinks Sweet and Sour Chicken is a bioweapon.

if it is, I don't wan't to know.

 

[Stacyhs]

Everyone knows Sweet and Sour Chicken isn't, but burritos are definitely bioweapons.
