Because even if chemtrails were a thing they’re logistically impractical. There are multiple unlikely leaps of logic

There are multiple steps of logic here

  • can aircraft spray chemicals? Sure, we have ag planes and fire fighting planes. In Vietnamese War we sprayed defoliant
  • is there a mind control chemical that can be sprayed?
  • if there was, could someone benefit from widespread dispersion?
  • can you spread it through jet engine exhaust within it destroying it?
  • is it possible to include with regularly scheduled air service without passengers or crew noticing?
  • how many people would have to be in on the conspiracy and what are the chances of keeping it secret so long?

So the current examples of spraying from plane do so all at once through special equipment. You’d notice plus can’t really be widespread. It’s extremely unlikely a chemical could be mixed into jet fuel, survive the combustion process, and be spread with enough concentration to be useful. There’s no way such a large program would go unnoticed, could possibly be kept secret. Most importantly, for what purpose? If someone were trying to mind control the whole country what does it benefit to dose a random person in a field with no special skill or access and where there’s no one around to control them?
