Ted Nugent is refusing to abide by Texas rules on curbing chronic wasting disease in deer because he doesn't believe it's real. "I don't know if there are free Texans anymore, but I am. I am the fuckin' Alamo." Wild story from my friend Roque Planas over at Public Domain, which is an excellent Substack-based publication I highly recommend subscribing to: https://www.publicdomain.media/p/ted-nugent-has-waged-a-years-long?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=4006545&post_id=161494588&utm_campaign=email-post-title&isFreemail=false&r=9wuu&triedRedirect=true&utm_medium=email

😮 I hope for his sake he at least doesn’t eat any of those deer. It might be possible for CWD deer to spread Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease to humans https://www.neurology.org/doi/10.1212/WNL.0000000000204407

Purp this is sad. Prion diseases are devastating and I wouldn’t wish that on anyone no matter how much I hated someone. One of those things where truly, getting shot in the head might be the more compassionate choice relative to contracting CJD

I mean yes, but also getting it because you ignored warnings, decided it was a hoax and continued to do it, I've got a very hard time feeling sorry. Not wishing on anyone simply pointing out the irony of him saying he's been eating the meat and is totally fine
