Props for finding a really different form, and new level, of crazy.
My friend, this is straight up what Alex Jones talks about every week on his show. This guy isn't a new level or a different form, he's just good at parroting his propaganda source.
Oh, no no. I mean for this /c/. It's usually more straightforward anti-vax or other more common SovCit nuttiness. This is refreshingly out of left field (for those of us who do not listen to, or follow, what Alex Fucking Jones is up to at any given point).
Oh I see! Sorry, I misunderstood.
I don't take my Infowars straight, though, I listen to a podcast where a couple of comedians break down his show point by point to show where he's cherry picking his "facts", what they really mean in context and what he's adding to make it fit his narrative. Purely for the "know your enemy" aspect of it, I truly get no joy from hearing his piece of shit voice and his mental gymnastics often make me feel like I'm dissociating from reality.
Which is the smarter approach. I'm a head-in-the-sand guy, because it's not good for my blood pressure otherwise.
I hear you, it's probably bad for my mental health too.
