We are done waiting. We are done waiting for a Democratic party that won’t fight and a Republican party that thrives on chaos. Yesterday, we had our organization meeting, and the news is official: Make America Vaccinated Again (MAVA) is now a 501c4.
The mainstream narrative is that political change only happens with millions of dollars and corporate backers. The Reality is that we are the actual grassroots. We are the “fledgling seedling, desperately looking for water roots.” We aren’t tapping into an existing ground game; we are the ground game.
We are going up against the entire MAGA army, and we are doing it by contacting every single elected politician in the United States to make them sign a pledge. We proved it last night by calling Rep. Patterson in Missouri live on air to stop their anti-science raw milk bills. We are the people we have been waiting for.
THE ROUNDUP: WHAT THE DATA ACTUALLY SAYS
Here is the breakdown of the science we covered, contrasting the headlines with the biological reality.
* They Said: Birds evolve beautiful plumage solely to attract mates and show fitness.
* The Dr. Greg Reality: Evolution is messy and sometimes stupid. These pheasants essentially blinded themselves for sex.
* The Data: Love practically makes these birds go blind.
* Summary: A new study reveals that the elaborate head plumage on male golden and Lady Amherst’s pheasants blocks their vision by up to 41%, making them vulnerable to predators just to look good for females.
They Said: You need to wait for the next election cycle to make a difference.
* The Dr. Greg Reality: We need your skills right now to build the infrastructure that fights disinformation.
* The Data: Volunteer for MAVVA Form.
* Summary: This is the official intake form for the Make America Vaccinated Again 501c4, seeking volunteers with skills in web design, marketing, copywriting, and CRM management to build the organization.
* They Said: Humans have seen every color on the visible spectrum.
* The Dr. Greg Reality: Your brain limits what you see. If we hack the hardware (the retina) with lasers, we can unlock colors that “broke” the participants’ brains.
* The Data: Scientists say they’ve discovered a new color.
* Summary: Using an experimental setup with eye-tracking lasers to stimulate individual cones in the retina, researchers allowed subjects to perceive a “green” so saturated and pure that it does not exist in nature and cannot be displayed on any screen.
