Seen this shit before with Reddit's most astroturfed poison producers: Monsanto.

"Glyphosate is so safe that you can drink it." eco-porky

"Then drink it. Right now. With the cameras on you." ecoterrorism

"I got to go!" porky-scared-flipped

    I saw this said once about "I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE" reddit-logo types: "You don't 'love science,' you stare at science's ass as it walks by."

      Exactly, as the song says about the fetishism of science:

      Eternalized, objectified
      You set your sights so high
      But this is beginning to feel like the bolt busted loose from the lever

        This is beginning to feel like the dawn of the loser forever billionaire-tears

          One can only hope, and he does seem to be really losing it lately.

          But I have a strong feeling that the "death professor" referred to in the song could be Oppenheimer, which makes sense if you see the song as describing the progress of science towards a nuclear detonation, from the barely controlled locomotive (steam era) to the static explosion of a nuclear warhead.

            I'm pretty sure that was the intended subject of the lyrics, too. I just wanted to apply them further.
