I've been surfing several news sites and whiles its difficult to gauge how many people genuinely believe some stuff it seems there is no shortage of just flat out crazy from the Right. Like just in the last few decades we had the Obama wasn't born in the US which since his mother was a citizen his location of birth was irrelevant. Not to mention that's a fairly stupid rule these days. It was put in place at a time where there was a legit fear some Old World Royal could win an election. I believe lots of crazy stuff can happen but but some English Prince winning an election is close enough to impossible these days that its not a concern. Then we are STILL getting Michelle Obama is actually a man because of doctored photos and apparently a lack of photos of her pregnant. They may exist but I don't think I've ever seen a picture of my mother pregnant. Now both of these I think are good ole fashioned racism with just enough polish that people can pretend its legit. At least the second one. She's not even an unattractive woman FFS.
Then we have the idea that COVID was designed in a lab. Which is at least possible if not plausible That said if it was a Chinese bioweapon why unleash it in China. At the time there weren't many restrictions on travel. Why not send a few tourists to Disneland or the Super Bowl and just have them wander around? Wouldn't that make a lot more sense? Then Bill Gates was trying to get microchips into people for. . . I never really figured that one out.
Now don't get me wrong, I can disagree with someone and not think they are crazy. I find it difficult to defend Israel at this point but thinking the Palestinian People deserve this for decades of mostly harmless attacks. I've always felt that Israel's responses are the equivalent of a six year old punching you in the dick and you going home for your baseball bat. There is such thing as gross overkill. That is not me supporting HAMAS, I do not. At this point I'm not sure there are any truly good people in this conflict. There are innocent people who get caught in the crossfire but okay. That doesn't make you insane.
I couldn't have picked Taylor Swift out of a line up six months ago. Maybe you lined her up with other blonde pop stars I could eliminate the wrong answers. That's Britney, that's Shakira, that's Christina so it must be you. Joke would be on me if they just found some blonde model to throw up. The Super Bowl was a psyop? I tend to think that there is a maximum number of people who can keep a secret. If Taylor was at the Super Bowl and both teams agreed to throw the game some idiot would have posted it on Twitter by now. Or been drunk in a bar. Or just pissed off someone who leaked it intentionally. Too many moving parts makes me dismiss most conspiracy theories.
That's before we talk about the election was rigged. Even though in the lead up BOTH sides agreed Russia had interfered with 2016. How effective was in question. If Trump was in on it is in serious question. At this point I think his inability to keep his mouth shut not to mention pissing off so many people in his own party that we'd know by now. Still THAT could be true. The number of at least known fraudulent votes found is a rounding error. Yes we all want secure elections but I believe we are as secure as we can reasonably get. I mean there is ALWAYS going to be a Raul Bonnila III who signed on his father's line who died last year and hasn't been purged. Heck I'm not a Jr but when my father dies the very last thing on my mind is going to be getting him off the voter registration. Literally behind when does Resident Evil 9 drop. My mother's name is Terry which is more common for men than women. I suppose voter ID would prevent me from taking her vote. But polsters are usually locals. I'd have to gamble she hadn't already voted, the pollster didn't know her from somewhere and a lot of other things. This isn't happening.
That global warming is a hoax designed to force people out of their cars. Global Warming or at least proving that there are gasses that can cause climate change. That theory by a few years older than evolution FFS. I think over a century is long enough that if nobody has disproven it its more than likely true.
Then every few weeks we year something about a literal invasion. Not that illegal immigration is out of control. A debatable point that I won't walk you through right now. But that able bodied young men are gearing up to attack us. And white replacement theory.
I could go on but I have to state that I wouldn't care if this was limited to the Ben Shapiros and Alex Jones. I think at least a few years back Tucker Carlson was high enough up the food chain that he has an oblgation to the best of his ability to make sure his information is accurate. Thing is we have people like Bobert and Green and Gaetz spreading this garbage. Frankly Trump may not say it outloud too often but he never says "Okay that's too far."
We already had J6 and while I think those people are insane there is something I agree with them on. That if I really and truly believed our elections were being stolen that's when its time to go 2nd Amendment on people. I am genuinely concerned about what happens the next time if say Trump loses.
