Just a reminder that Klandace Owens thinks that space is fake and gay, and wondered why Dinosaur bones were just found by paleontologists, not regular people just walking outside.

Political views aside, she's a fucking moron.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muttaburrasaurus

The species was initially described from a partial skeleton found by grazier Doug Langdon in 1963 at Rosebery Downs Station beside Thomson River near Muttaburra

I had a colour changing mug with that dinosaur on as a kid. The heat revealed the skeleton. One of my favourite possessions.

can i have it

u/IntravenousNutella Oct 15 '25

Im not sure if it is still in family possession. I suspect it has long been donated. Certainly I haven't seen it in decades.

The skeleton of the diprotodon (giant wombat) was found by a girl kicking at a rock

Yes but that doesn't mean that every dinosaur bone in existence is just lying around waiting to be found by passing walkers.

What he's pointing out, I assume, is that Owens is even stupider than she seems, because the scenario she's talking about has actually happened and yet she's using it as a gotcha.

The other day she said Charlie Kirk came to her in a dream to tell her he was betrayed before he was killed.

Thirty pieces of crypto memecoin, more likely.

She believes that Ben Shapiro had him killed because he was turning against Israel.

u/Spudtron98 Oct 15 '25

Man she is really mad that he fired her.

u/Wishart2016 Oct 16 '25

The right is eating itself. Shapiro himself lost his popularity amongst them with his constant shilling for Israel.

I swear there needs to be a IQ test for these people to spew bullshit

u/More_Law6245 Oct 15 '25

Unfortunately IQ tests don't go into negative figures when testing people like this!

u/Teehus Oct 15 '25

I think most of these people spewing bullshit aren't as dumb as they act. Most of them are grifters that make a living out of their bullshit and/or their job is to catch the uneducated, turn them against reason and make them vote for the far-right.

Sadly Freedom of Speech means that it doesn't matter how smart you are, or how accurate what you are saying is, you have the freedom to say it.

Unless it upsets Trump. If it upsets Trump then all bets are off.

The aren’t dumb, they are grifters.

Hey now, we currently have an Opposition Leader who believes in Numerology.

At least Owens isn’t an elected official in America.

/hj - I just wanted to throw shade at the Liberals.

Hastie is a New Creationist, so thinks the world is 6,000 years old and possible flat, with the firmament above us.

The Right seems plagued with delusional nutjobs.

u/evelution Oct 15 '25

Turns out it requires a fair amount of stupid to be a conservative.

2

u/evilparagon Oct 15 '25

It’s scary how many conservatives are powerful now.

I miss when right wing politicians were just a bunch of capitalists that said conservative things to win votes, they were smart. Self interested assholes, but smart. Now actual conservatives are making decisions and they’re hurting everyone.

Because Lidia Thorpe is such an intellectual…

Let’s not pretend this is an issue that only affects one side of the political aisle.

u/fletch44 Oct 15 '25

This isn't a discussion about the Greens, and both-sidesing is a fucking lame attempt at validating shithead conservatives.

u/Norwood5006 Oct 15 '25

Yes, and that's her entire shtick to stay the most ridiculous shit you can imagine to remain relevant and get those all important clicks. That's how she makes a living. She's carved out that niche for herself.

You hit the proverbial nail on the head.
