Ferris State University professor on leave following controversial COVID-19 comments
BIG RAPIDS, Mich. — Ferris State professor Thomas Brennan is on administrative leave because of remarks made about COVID-19 on his Twitter account.
"I just have to speak out, to try to speak my conscience," says Brennan. 'I can't be silent and watch this happen."
Screenshots taken by The Torch show Brennan referring to COVID-19 as a "stunt" to create "a leftist new world order".
"I did say some hyperbolic things to draw attention to what it is I wanted to say," explains Brennan.
This includes using the n-word, which Brennan calls "an atomic word", he used to make people listen.
"I didn't use it lightly," says Brennan. "But we're heading towards such a crescendo of madness where we're about to all be enslaved because of this COVID crisis."
He does believe COVID-19 is real, however says masks and vaccines are created to control the masses.
"Putting a muzzle over our face is actually a dehumanizing and satanic ritual," says Brennan
