100% as well, though disappointed by the lack of Jewish conspiracies. Though I guess the lizard people thing counts. :shifty: :disshame:
I thought it was assumed that the lever-pullers behind all those conspiracies were Jews. :huh:
That's what we *want* you to think.
Okay, now I'm confused and scared and wishing I had nsc's special bunker phone number.

Another member of the local surf scene told The Daily Beast he trusted Coleman enough that he “would have handed him my own kids in a second, to take them surfing.

Yeah, trusted him right up until he drank the Q-Aid. Very tragic.

Well lucky for that guy it wasn't his kids who were the victims. The surf school owner brutally murdered his own kids aged 1 and 3

And as long as we're talking about totally absurd conspiracies, tomorrow's supposed to be the big day. Advice to any Q member or Trumpies who may see this: don't quit your day jobs just yet.

Just like the Millenarian religious movements in the 19th c, the date of Christ's return can be perpetually recalculated.

And haven't lost many adherents, so why not? Like a shitty film franchise, if you can make a profit recycling the same shitty script, keep doing it.

What a pathetic man. I can only hope those who continue to spread lies and undermine our democracy are someday, somehow held accountable for their actions. I'm really hoping the Dominion lawsuit is successful and puts some very serious financial hurt on these folks.

They'll settle. Eventually the lawyers and finance people will tell all involved that they're going to lose, so it's whether they want to be wiped out or just wounded. Fanaticism is fun when it's someone else's money, after all.

Team "flat earth" just leaves me in stitches. Next thing you know he'll be telling your son tRump won the election, but Jewish space lasers and Chinese smart thermostats helped rig it.

These visual effects guys went into some solid technical detail on how the photos and footage were not faked:
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

The thing I appreciate about these kinds of videos is that they affirm the value of expertise. The confidence of an amateur working thru gut thinking and "common sense" just doesn't match up to those with technical skills. This doesn't always apply (e.g., politics) but on stuff that is dependent on hard science and technology, a trained expert is worth a million amateurs who confidently know what their eyes are showing.
