Former Reality Star Tells Other Reality Star That Man Did, in Fact, Land on Moon

This week, on an episode of The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian theorized that man has never actually stepped foot on the moon. Speaking to her All’s Fair costar Sarah Paulson, the reality star, entrepreneur, and the only working actress (apart from Gal Gadot) who literally cannot emote, voiced skepticism about the historic event. Her evidence? “Like, a million articles.”

“I’m sending you, like so far, a million articles—interviews—with both Buzz Aldrin and…the other one,” Kardashian told Paulson. “The other one,” you might deduce, is Neil Armstrong…

“This girl says, ‘What was the scariest moment?’ And [Aldrin] goes, ‘There was no scary moment, cause it didn’t happen. It could’ve been scary, but it wasn’t, ’cause it didn’t happen,'” Kardashian relays to Paulson, noting Aldrin’s supposedly increasing candor with age. “So I think it didn’t happen.”

Naturally, NASA didn’t like that. On Thursday, NASA’s acting administrator, Sean Duffy, refuted her claims on Twitter, writing: “Yes, @KimKardashian, we’ve been to the Moon before…6 times!” He added: “And even better: @NASAArtemi is going back under the leadership of @POTUS. We won the last space race and we will win this one too.” 

I know, I know. What’s so noteworthy about another Trump-pilled sycophant waving the American flag on Twitter? Well, this story gets all the more ridiculous when you’re informed that Duffy was on The Real World: Boston. His focus then, according to the New York Times, was “cute girls” and partying. Now, he’s a devout Catholic, a father of nine children, and obsessed with driving up birth rates. Isn’t that pipeline funny?

So, in short: a reality star just got called out by a reality star who works for another reality star. I am, once again, saying that we live in the stupidest country, during the stupidest time.
