I’m not seeing “promote fanatical devotion to astronomy” on the list.
The watermelons aren’t promoting “astronomy,” instead, they are promoting anything that tears down the West’s technology and order and finances.
This is why they promte random welded-together pieces of scrap metal as “art” when in reality it is merely junk that will be discarded with malice by future generations.
It is why they promote tearing down hydro-electric dams in the name of “fish” when the reality is that they want less power to be available to the West, and for power to cost the West more.
And yes, it is why they promote dark skies for “astronomy” when their real purpose is to increase crime and decrease the civilizing aspects of outdoor lighting in the West.
These ideas above, all of them, are specifically *not* promoted in non-Western nations.
Not in China. Not in Africa. Not in India.
They promote such ideas in the West solely to tear us down.
