„Many conspiracy theories […] might be a kind of folk knowing: an unconscious augury of the conditions, produced by those with a deep, even hidden, awareness of current conditions and no way to articulate them in scientifically acceptable terms. […] The chemtrails stick to the body, becoming unconscious, yet persistent, manifestations of wider environmental ruin. Just as a friend told me about flying to their summer holidays on one of the same jets I watched performing midnight deportations, so chemtrail believers film ‘black smokers’ from the windows of their own polluting pleasure flights. There’s no outside to the complexity we find ourselves enmeshed in, no exterior point of view that we can all share on the situation. The network that brings us knowledge wraps around us, refracting our perspective into a million points of view, simultaneously illuminating and disorientating us.“
Die Bahnen der Flugzeuge sind wirklich Spuren einer Katastrophe, nur hat die nichts mit Gedankenkontrolle und einer Weltverschwörung zu tun.
Dabei helfen diese Verschwörungstheorien gerade denen, die wirklich am Klimawandel profitieren, denn wenn es keinen Konsens mehr darüber gibt, was da am Himmel zu sehen ist oder wenn der Blick in die Wolken die falschen Assoziationen weckt, wenn es also nur noch um den virtuellen, nicht den echten Himmel geht, dann ändert sich echten Himmel auch nichts.
