Roseanne, Трамп и педофилы

Как пела группа "Кино", "я знал будет плохо, но не знал, что так скоро".

Я смотрел если не все, то, как минимум, процентов 90 эпизодов "Roseanne", популярного ситкома 90-х. И, на мой взгляд, это было отличное шоу.



Как и некоторые другие шоу 90-х, его сейчас возродили. Во вторник была премьера на ABC, 18 миллионов зрителей, huge success. ABC, кажется, уже и на следующий сезон продлило "Roseanne".

Трамп лично позвонил Roseanne, поздравить ее с успехом.

Я читал, что сама Roseanne, Roseanne Barr, сторонница Трампа. Ну, сторонница и сторонница, жаль, конечно, но не она одна.

На днях я прочитал, что Розэнн не просто сторонница Трампа, а еще и активный популяризатор теорий заговора по типу Пиццагейта. Это уже следующий уровень, но я не стал вникать, что именно она популяризировала.

Сегодняшний твит Roseanne:

President Trump has freed so many children held in bondage to pimps all over this world. Hundreds each month. He has broken up trafficking rings in high places everywhere. notice that. I disagree on some things, but give him benefit of doubt-4 now.

О чем она говорит? Трамписты среди читающих мой ЖЖ знают?

Оказывается, вот о чем -- "The Storm Is the New Pizzagate — Only Worse".

A new conspiracy theory called “The Storm” has taken the grimiest parts of the internet by, well, storm. Like Pizzagate, the Storm conspiracy features secret cabals, a child sex-trafficking ring led (in part) by the satanic Democratic Party, and of course, countless logical leaps and paranoid assumptions that fail to hold up under the slightest fact-based scrutiny. However, unlike Pizzagate, the Storm isn’t focused on a single block of shops in D.C., or John Podesta’s emails. It’s much, much bigger than that.

Процитирую о сути самой теории, потому что не все, конечно, будут читать статью по ссылке.

On October 28, someone calling themselves Q began posting a series of cryptic messages in a /pol/ thread titled “Calm Before the Storm” (assumedly in reference to that creepy Trump quote from early October). Q claimed to be a high-level government insider with Q clearance (hence the name) tasked with posting intel drops — which he, for some reason, called “crumbs” — straight to 4chan in order to covertly inform the public about POTUS’s master plan to stage a countercoup against members of the deep state. It was, in short, absolutely insane. However, thanks to some rather forced coincidences — like Q kind of, sort of guessing that Trump would tweet the word “small” on Small Business Saturday, and this one time the internet decided that Q was “totally on Air Force One” because he posted a blurry picture of some islands while Trump was on his trip to Asia — and a whole heck of a lot of wishful thinking, people believed he was the real deal.

So he kept talking.

According to Q, Trump was never really involved with Russia, and isn’t actually under investigation by Mueller & Co. On the contrary, Q insists that it’s actually Clinton and Obama who were corrupted by Putin (and are now actually under investigation by Mueller) because they’re obviously just evil, money-hungry globalists who’ll do anything for the highest bidder. (Oh, yeah, and they’re also apparently into raping and killing children, though the crowd is split over whether this is because they’re satanists or just part of some weird blackmail scheme involving the CIA.) Q also claims that Trump, the genius that he is, figured all of this out way back when he was just a measly presidential candidate, and has been pretending to love Putin and/or be involved with Russia ever since as a way to force a third party to investigate these horrors — without drawing the attention of those evil Dems-who-must-not-be-named, of course — because he’s just that selfless of a leader.

In this fantasy world, all of the far right’s wildest dreams come true: Q promises that Clinton, Obama, Podesta, Abedin, and even McCain are all either arrested and wearing secret police-issued ankle monitors, or just about to be indicted; that the Steele dossier is a total fabrication personally paid for by Clinton and Obama; and that the Las Vegas massacre was most definitely an inside job connected to the Saudi-Clinton cabal.

They believe all of this will be coming to a head any day now. That “The Storm” — of arrests, political turmoil, and Republican vindication — is coming. Though there have been some, uh, miscalculations as for exactly when.

Вот такому идиотизму верят, наверное, сотни тысяч людей. И теперь Roseanne с новой, вызванной возрождением ее шоу популярностью распространяет эти бредни.

Автор декабрьской статьи по ссылке верно спрашивает:

What is there even left to try? We know that stopping the conversation doesn’t work. Neither do the facts. How can we even begin to argue with hundreds of thousands of people who choose to believe that a top government agent is speaking to them through 4chan, that Trump has been playing a game of 4-D mind chess this whole time, and that the Las Vegas massacre was an inside job?

What is there even left to try, действительно?
