It is with great sadness that I must announced the death of an old friend--Common Sense. Common Sense lived a long life but died in the United States from heart failure. Some say it may have been a terminal brain cramp. No one really knows how old he was, but it is believed that he was friends with Ben Franklin.
His health declined starting with the conspiracy theory that the moon landing was a hoax. As the number of illogical conspiracies theories increased, Common Sense’s health declined proportionately. Common Sense was able to tolerate the Flat Earth theory, attributing it to ignorant people who ignore the scientific facts. The round earth has been a proven fact for more than two thousand years.
The conspiracy theory that political and media elites are conspiring to replace white people with immigrants nearly killed him. He survived that only to see the increased popularity of the global warming conspiracy theory which alleges that global warming is a hoax.
Common Sense took a turn for the worst following the 2020 elections when President Trump and his followers claimed that the election was “stolen”, leading to the January 6 insurrection that attempted to stop the recount of the election results. By then, Common Sense’s heart could take no more. His decline was then irreversible.
He was preceded in death by his parents: Truth and Honesty; his wife: Logic; his daughter: Wisdom and his son; Intelligence. He is survived by his stepson, Nonsense.
Rest in Peace, Common Sense.
