A typical 20-year veteran #NASA astrophysicist and a typical 19-year-old #DOGE MAGAt are both #federal employees. They are equivalent, up to isomorphism. But there are minor differences.
The astrophysicist knows, with near certainty, that the Sun will rise tomorrow. His knowledge of the event is just shy of “certain” because, as unlikely as it maybe, he must mathematically account for the occurrence of a catastrophic event, such as a rogue blackhole swooping into the solar neighbourhood.
The MAGAt knows, with absolute certainty, that the Sun will rise tomorrow, because he knows Musk did not get round to sacking its inefficient arse overnight and, hence, it has no choice but to return to work over Murica and report by email to DOGE what it had been doing over the past 12 hours. And for the Sun’s sake, the signature line of its email better not contain indicia of DEI, like gender pronouns.
