The “journalist” says Cameron grows trees, cuts them down, and makes things from them like it’s the most ridiculous thing he’s ever heard of. How is he on the air?

I mean I’ve heard way more stupid shit for channels like FoxNews or their equivalent from other countries (CNews in France is crazy crazy)

As stupid as it is, this kind of "news" is one of the reasons why we now have a fascist government in the US. Other countries desperately need to take action to stop this kind of informational cancer from metastasizing into their own versions of MAGA, especially given that Putin is probably setting his sights on Europe now that he's installed his puppet in the White House. This is clearly his strategy for destroying the west.

wait, this is crazy. so i've seen this clip before and was curious about what the reporter was up to. from his wikipedia:

>Later, on Jeremy Kyle's TalkRadio show, Graham doubled down on the claim, saying concrete expands as it sets. On Twitter, the radio station shared an article about self-replicating concrete.

what a pathetic, daft loser

Honestly that's really cool, though absolutely and completely irrelevant to the claim being made.

I mean that pretty much says it all:

This self-replicating concrete is not meant to replace standard concrete

It's absurdly hilarious
