More From the Loons

It appears that I was wrong about the Houthis - they aren't, as I assumed, a bunch of alien brigands menacing mankind whose occupation of part of Yemen has resulted in military strikes by the earth's combined military forces.  I was alerted to my error when I saw the term 'Hamas and The Houthis' trending on Twitter, (yeah, I know, Twitter, but I still can't quite kick the habit) - it became clear to me tat they were actually a musical act of some kind, supporting the well known Middle Eastern singer Hamas.  I should imagine that they end their performances by blowing up the venue and slaughtering their audience.  Especially if they are performing in Jerusalem.  (I know, I'm a fascist.  Again).  The sad thing is that there probably are people out there who actually believe this sort of thing, such are the levels of sheer ignorance on display on social media.  (As ever, of course, one should add the proviso that those who use social media are a relatively small proportion of the population and their views aren't necessarily representative of the wider population.  Moreover, those who are most vociferous on social media are themselves a small proportion of social media users and don't necessarily represent the views of the majority).  I mean, just look at this latest Twitter nonsense about 'Disease X' - a bunch of idiots have completely (and deliberately) misconstrued reports about preparations being made, in light of the experiences of the Covid pandemic, to be able to more rapidly develop new vaccines to combat any future new viruses, (ie 'Disease X'), to instead to try and spread misinformation and panic about government conspiracies to unleash new diseases on the world.  Because, obviously, that's the way to 'control' us all even more.

Then we have that hairy loon Neil Oliver spouting shit about 'turbo cancer', a non-existent condition that only effects those who have been vaccinated.  (I have to say here that if not being vaccinated turns you into a raving idiot who looks as if they've been living in a cave for the past four years, like Neil Oliver, then I'll take every shot on offer).  Of course, nothing can beat the absolute toss that some of those QAnon/MAGA freaks in the States sign up to, one of my favourites being that a pizza parlour was somehow a front for a Satanic paedophile network providing underage sex slaves to the entire (Democratic) Washington establishment.  All on the basis of no evidence whatsoever.  It fascinates me how some people can buy into such obvious nonsense.  But then again, in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, they also still believe that Trump is a patriotic, clean living, honest as the day is long American and not a lying, traitorous scumbag fraudster who molests women.  But getting back to that pizza business, I'm left wondering if they would believe conspiracies centered on other fast-food franchises.  Could they be convinced that MacDonald's are practicing human sacrifice and using human flesh in their burgers?  At the start of every working day each branch's High Priest, dressed as Ronald MacDonald, slaughters a child to ensure a good day's training?  Could it be that MacDonald's are behind illegal immigrants flooding across border from Mexico, sourcing the meat for its products from them?  Then there's Burger King.  Do they practice occult rituals designed to summon up Cthulu and the Old Ones?  Are their burgers being prepared by things with tentacles?  Sure, I know its all a bit tame compared to their fantasies about paedophilia and pizza, but you never know, these fruitcakes are scarily gullible.
