Well… we found one that apparently doesn’t care when the shoe is on the other foot.

Ok. Let’s compare.

How many liberals believed that Donald Trump had Nuclear secrets at his home in Mar a Lago?

Believed that Trump was trying to start WW3?

Believed that Trump could, and would, launch nukes just by using the Nuclear Football?

Conspiracy theories or no? Absurd or no?

Did the MSM promote any of the “conspiracy theories” you posted?

Democratic Congressmen?

Which one was more widespread? Which one more believed?

No, I think the significant portion believe the following theories:

The election was stolen to put in a puppet for the western oligarchs in office.

The majority of media is complicit.

The coronavirus pandemic was used by these same powers to usher in an authoritarian communist-fascist style society.

The majority of US medical community was complicit.

The US federal government powers are complicit as well (as well as many states and foreign governments).

The same powers generated BLM strife and that was fomented by the same complicit media to disrupt any unity.

These same powers use the internet in much the same way as media, to quell opposition.

This is what people right of the autho-fascii-communism think...

Define “significant portion”.

And also pre compare it to what I posted. Go ahead and throw in “Kavanaugh was a rapist” too.

“Now they have moved on entirely, to a radical denial of moral norms, religion, and family …”

“The dictatorship of the Western elites is directed against all societies, including the peoples of the Western countries themselves. This is a challenge to all. This is a complete denial of humanity, the overthrow of faith and traditional values. Indeed, the suppression of freedom itself has taken on the features of a religion: outright Satanism.”

I guarantee if you ask any random 100 Republicans what is a frazzledrip, less than 5 will know.

I guarantee if you ask any group of 100 democrats what Kavanagh was accused of doing, 70 or more would know.

Yep.

Because the garbage MSM promotes their conspiracy theories as “news”.

The ones his eggs is scrambled about is very limited in broadcast.

And that’s why he has danced thus far. Because he knows it.

Mouton is battling the speculative.

That's the framework for his nonsense, he doesn't want to talk about reality.

Satanic is a limited term, but can we wait until we get Ghilaine's list, surely this board will be glad to discuss it.

It's not hyperbole when it kills a close relative.

Conservatives: "We believe there might be a loose-coalition of powerful people who are ritualistically/systematically abusing children and using their power to hide those crimes".

Leftists: "That's crazy conspiracy , let's talk about the Catholic Church instead"...

Conservatives: "Do you not realize what you just ty.....nevermind".
