    this is why social media should not have be involved in “news”. It’s really depressing that the older generation joined social media to only start believing the bs on the validity as their own local news program. If the U.S. government found the identities of the idiots that spread flagrant lies, which lead to people being killed.

    I know who Q is. He’s the guy with Q-level clearance at the MI6 and makes weapons for James Bond. Q is also an extra dimension mischief maker who likes to mess with the minds of the Enterprise crew on Star Trek: TNG.

    Qanon sure seems to have the fingerprints of Russian Trolls and Putin.

    FB, Twitter, and Google need to be investigated and fined billions for their promotion of white supremacist conspiracies.

    The DNC not letting Bernie Sanders be their Presidential Candidate…talk about a conspiracy I can get behind! Although its not that big a secret. Corporate Democrats, along with all Republicans, trash anyone who is a threat to corporate control of our legislators. Gotta keep our biggest tax evaders…i mean payers happy…oopsy

    #DesiLydic reminds me of a hotter version of that blonde chick from the movie Joe Dirt <3 (The girlfriend, not the sister/not sure sister!) ^_^

    But this is a false equivalency. The left is nowhere near as cultist as rightwingers
