I am seeing news reports that the "Stop the Steal" crowd has moved on to a "stop the vaccine" message.

It seems they can only define themselves by being against something, they seem to have a weird zero-sum attitude to society.

And there seems to be a sort of default assumption that the powers that be are trying to cheat and or kill them.

It's like they never recognized the dedicated school board member, the mayor who puts her career on hold for a decade to help the city or, in this case, the doctors and public health officials who prepare for things the rest of us don't even think about.

Whilst I know it is woo - the idea of “projection” is hard to shake.

Yeah, I've thought the same thing. I wonder if they have a problem with functional people and working societal systems. Sorta like the kid in school who had a problem with classmates who studied and achieved.

it seems like the Trumpies, the anti-vaxers and the sovcits have joined forces to make one big ole mess of crazy.

I had a chilling thought the other day wondering if Trump thought he might end up being the president after the civil war.

In the past thoughts like that made me say, "No way!" to myself. Not now.

The idea that the public heath system would purposefully screw up the vaccine is intended to sew doubts in the country these folks are trying to overthrow.

MyPillow CEO Shouts Over Steve Bannon in Wild Rant: ‘Donald Trump Will be Back in Office in August!’

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...t2?li=BB141NW3

This sounds like the kind of free speech the dickhead says he doesn't have.

If this is what he gets up to on MSM he's going to be nuts of his free speech platform.

I hate to be mean, because I deeply suspect Lindell has mental problems, but I hope the full wrath of the law falls on his head. I mean, you can be stupid, and you can be crazy, but these things shouldn't be a shield against what's true and right. At some point it should be okay to shut you up.

Pillow Guy rambles like someone with serious mental problems. I've heard people in the hospital with paranoid delusional syndromes talk like that. Seriously.

Lindell truly is swivel-eyed insane. Dare I say it, more obviously and deeply insane than his "hero", T****. Not even tangentially impinging on reality, as they say.

Heaven knows what his employees think having to work for this guy. I mean, how is his pillow business going?

Re Lindell, here are the DSM-5 criteria for 301.0 (F 60.0) Paranoid Personality Disorder Diagnostic Criteria
Quote:

A. Suspiciousness and pervasive mistrust of others in their motivations that are interpreted as malevolent, which began in early adulthood and is manifested in a variety of contexts as indicated by four (or more) of the following:

1. Suspects without a sufficient basis that others are harming, exploiting or deceiving them.
2. Has a preoccupation without justification about the trustworthiness or loyalty of friends, family or associates.
3. A reluctance to confide in others because of an unwarranted fear that the information will be used negatively against them.
4. Reads threatening meanings and demeaning motivations behind benign remarks or events.
5. Unforgiving of other’s insults, slights and perceived injuries and persistently bearing grudges
6. Perceives attacks on their character and reputation that is not apparent to others and reacts quickly and angrily in counterattack.
7. Has recurrent suspicions although unjustified about the fidelity of their spouse or sexual partner.

B. The symptoms do not occur exclusively during the course of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or depressive disorder with psychotic features, or other psychotic disorders that are not attributable to the physiological effects of another medical condition.
Whether he meets these criteria, I don't think we have enough to go on yet. But there is something seriously wrong with the guy as evidenced by his disorganized rambling. He can't answer a question without several sidetracks, he can't complete a whole sentence without sidetracks.

Lindell claims his site can host a billion users! That is sone serious, serious Google level hardware.

Quote:
Lindell said: "None of these guys are going to be able to take this down. We're gonna all come over there. All the influencers... all these people that can't say on their podcasts the word 'Dominion,' or they can't say 'vaccine, a vaccine is bad for you.'

"They are going to be able to speak out and speak freely and it's going to be amazing. The voices of hundreds of millions of people are going to be heard."

The guy has been claiming he has the evidence and we're all going to see it since the election and he never has it. Now he's saying Trump will be POTUS come August as soon as the SCOTUS hears the case.


Is there any reason to believe this website/host nonsense? Can't be a dumpster fire without a dumpster.

Judging by the unsophisticated 1990's era web design we have been shown as a front page, I'll bet any half-decent script-kiddie or code monkey would have no trouble taking it down.

Oldest trick in the book, talking endlessly about freedom while planning to impose a dictatorship. No political party ever talked more about freedom then the Nazi Party in it's rise to power.

I would not be surprised if Qanon doesn’t already have a say about that with the Georgia Guidestones and I’m waiting for some Q to suggest that Covid is being spread by chemtrails and one of them is probably already working on how to fit a flat earth into the mix.

Thank you and again I'm not that surprised. These Q's are quite the busy beavers when it comes to fabrication. I mostly only read about them here.

Mike Lindell had a pretty normal interview on this subject:

Quote:
"So what I decided to do this as Mike Lindell now is I'm going to over the course of the next five weeks, four to five weeks, I'm going to dump all this evidence for all to see every day on my new platform Frank, where the world can't suppress it, where every single person, my audience I believe is a Democrat, just a Democrat that goes, 'Wow. China attacked us, this came in, it's foreign interference, they came in and stole this election through these machines Dominion and Smartmatic, everyone will get to see this over five weeks there's a very, I have a very coordinated plan here."

...

"Then I'm also countersuing, I'm not countersuing, putting a lawsuit with MyPillow against Dominion, countersuing of the public for free speech, for the first amendment rights, we're all doing this over the course of five weeks, just show the world, all the evidence, including nine people on the Supreme Court, and including their neighbors, their friends, everybody going, 'Did you see this? Did you see this? Did you see this?'"

Am I wrong in remembering that Lindell already gave his evidence in a long video, and no one cared?

He gave evidence that was overwhelming, conclusive and damming. I guess he could have found some more.

The "Free Speech" site won't allow dirty pictures, swearing or taking the Lord's name in vain.
