...I propose reestablishing the Knights Templar - with, or (as is almost certainly likely) without, the permission of the Pope: "FBI Releases Documents About Biden Admin Targeting Pro-Life Catholics".
Update A small (and belated) victory for Christians: "Moscow, Idaho pays $300,000 to Christians arrested for singing psalms outdoors during Covid".
Even in a basically conservative state, you see how the local police can get caught up in the frenzy of an environment in which "emergency powers" are claimed by the government.
Moscow is just across the state border from Pullman, WA. Both are college towns (University of Idaho at Moscow, and Washington State University), with Pullman being ultra-liberal (the county went for Biden, in spite of being in Eastern Washington, in a sea of red), and Moscow straining to catch up. So I wasn’t surprised to see it happen (I live about 120 miles from there, and I had to deal with local governments there before I retired.
ReplyDeleteThe award should have been higher, but it’s nice to see thugs smacked down.
Hmmmm. And I should note that the larger urban areas in Idaho are turning blue, thanks to the economic refugees who brought their problems with them. Boise, Coeur d’Alene, Pocatello. It’s unpleasant to watch.
ReplyDeleteVery frustrating to see these leftists from blue states infecting the red states.
ReplyDeleteSince all conspiracy theories are true, aren't the Masons already the Knights Templar, just in hiding?
ReplyDeleteI'd say it's about time they came out of hiding.
I do applaud the current trend of leftist media outlets libsplaining how red states are fascist hellholes.
The only people who still believe the NYTimesWashPostCNNNBCCBSABCetc. are lefties, that might keep them staying in their crap.
Veeshir, back in the late Nineties I became very interested in conspiracy theories and studied as many as I could find information on. In those pre-internet days (or rather, very early internet) that meant searching used bookstores and catalogs from shady publishing companies.
ReplyDeleteI considered trying to construct a Unified Field Theory of Conspiracies, tying the various ones together but it really wasn't possible. Not if you were including UFOs, bigfoot, the Hollow Earth, and all the rest. But there was a solid core of conspiracy theories that could be readily linked if one chose to. I don't know to this day if they really are linked of if that was just connecting similarities and overlaps. But these various theories included the Illuminati, the Gnomes of Zurich, the Knights Templar, the Masons, and the Trilateral Commission to name a few. Today I would add the WEF, and associated hangers on such as Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein, NAMBLA, Antifa, and so on.
Early on bar codes and the Mark of Satan were in there as well. But bar codes was just a flash in the pan, replaced by microchipping. Right now I would include smartphones and the Internet of Things.
I think some conspiracy theories are created deliberately to draw attention away from other, true one.
ReplyDeleteStephen: I believe that's true - and, unfortunately, leftists have already figured out that flooding the zone with nonsense makes a pretty good smoke screen.
