Donald Trumps former national security adviser and pardoned felon, Michael Flynn, has offered up his latest batch of conspiracy nonsense, this time suggesting that the COVID-19 pandemic was orchestrated by unnamed global elites who could be preparing to unleash a new virus on humanity.
Their little plan with COVID didnt work because too many people, you know, the world of what I call the digital warriors, or the citizen journalists that are out there. They are fighting for the truth, and so the truth has been exposed about all the COVID tyranny that we are facing, Flynn told prominent conspiracy theorist Alex Jones on The Alex Jones Show.
So I think what were going to see is potentially another type of virus thats imposed on the public.
I hope thats not the case, but Ive seen some indications of that in some of the statements by some of these global elite type of people, Flynn added.

The looney toons RepubliQons believe Biden is a wholly owned pawn of Xi who controls him through Obama and they are all plotting to sell out the US and make it a subsidiary of China.

Odd, those who deny that virus causes sickness and vaccines are effective, but accept ridiculously-convoluted circular-reasoning to explain world-wide events.

(49,000 posts)Ever popular with populist politicians.
In the 50s people blamed jews, Rothschilds, and fluoridation.
In 70s it was the "illuminati", then "arabs".
In 80s it was satanists and the moral panic over daycares.
in 00s it was Soros.
In 10s it became the pedo cannibals (pizzagate).
The bigger the threat the better.
The more outrageous the threat the better.

(13,180 posts)There haven't been any pandemics under Democratic administrations. So why would we want Trump and his Republicans "defending us" from future pandemics. They're 0-for-1 doing that.
It always strikes me as odd that Republicans call out COVID as a bioweapon from someone without pointing out that Republicans are the ones who failed to defend the country if so.

(53,955 posts)"Global elites" is still code for "Jews", even in the 21st century; don't be fooled! Some try to downplay the anti-Semitic component and forget that even if they include "other elites", they are still controlled by the Jews in their twisted narratives.
As a side note; Jew is capitalized!

They'll find one secret villain or another.
I'm not Jewish & I thought the same thing you posted.
