Go ahead Marge. Tell MAGAs that it's pointless to vote because it's "rigged" according to your paranoid delusions.

Attempted murder of democracy remains a crime
The Trump indictment made for some suprisingly unsettling reading, but we cannot forget that Trump and his fascism-curious minions really did stage orchestrated attempts to null out the ballots of millions of people.
The wheels of justice turn slowly, but they may yet grind whatever is left of Donald Trump’s reputation into radioactive dust. The 45th president’s arraignment Thursday on charges of overturning the 2020 election made him the 1,078th person to face charges tied to the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection–but unquestionably the most important. And while United States of America v. Donald J. Trump represents…

"Trump staged a shooting where a bullet flew so close it nicked his ear, while already ahead in the polls and while his opponent is having an unprecedented campaign disaster" is a stupid conspiracy theory
But "Bolsonaro staged a stabbing where he LOST 40% OF HIS BLOOD and had to get a colostomy with complications that continued into his presidency" is a much cooler conspiracy theory that I hadn't heard before. So it's impossible to say whether this post is bad or not.

A Surrey BC Conservative candidate is facing renewed pressure to drop out of the race after more offensive social media comments surfaced. But in a statement posted to social media platform X (formerly Twitter), South Surrey candidate Brent Chapman says he has no plans to withdraw. The latest comments were uncovered by CKNW radio host Jas Johal, and show Chapman appearing to question whether a number of high-profile mass shootings, including the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting, Quebec City mosque shooting and the Pulse Nightclub shooting in Orlando really happened.

Ever notice that the Conspiracy Theories that Republicans love most are the ones that have 0% facts, are 100% ridiculous, and if they have elements of racism or bigotry, they'll practically work themselves into a frenzy trying to promote the lies. • Jewish space lasers • Haitian immigrants eating pets • Birtherism (used against non-white politicians) • Holocaust denial • Drag Queen conspiracies • Great Replacement Theory • Racist theories against CRT • Homophobic/Racist theories against Wokeness • Kids going to school and coming back a different gender • Nazi and KKK propaganda • etc, etc,... Unfortunately, these are not the harmless Conspiracy Theories of yesteryear — Bigfoot, Aliens, and the Loch Ness Monster. These Republican lies, about whole groups of people, are dangerous and even life-threatening. And it has become obvious, as seen in Project 2025, that the depth and breadth of Republican discrimination and malice knows no bounds.

I don't give much thought to conspiracy theories, they're just a waste of time. I have a hard enough time keeping up with real things going on.
That said, there is currently a documentary in theaters titled "Vindicating Trump" and while I have no intention to see it, I found the description intriguing.
"Dinesh D'Souza examines the political, legal, and attempted-assassination obstacles faced by Donald Trump in his quest to retake the White House."
Might just be me, but it seems a little weird that a documentary highlighting at least one assassination attempt was greenlit, produced, and distributed to theaters within just a few months of the first attempt and a few days after the second.
I'm not necessarily saying I believe the attempts were staged, but the timing of all of it seems a bit more than coincidental

Dr. Anthony Fauci voluntarily testified before a House committee and debunked MAGA Republican conspiracy theories regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.
While Donald Trump and his lickspittles were telling Americans to drink bleach, take useless malaria pills, stick ultraviolet lights up their butts, and eat horse paste, Dr. Fauci headed an effort to develop vaccines for COVID-19.
A reminder to people with short memories who view the Trump administration as some sort of bucolic paradise: The last quarter of that administration included the worst government response to an infectious disease outbreak since 1920. Trumpsters who want us to ignore Trump's horribly botched response to the pandemic are like cruise-liner enthusiasts who want us to ignore the last 2% of the voyage of the Titanic.
Economic activity ground to a halt in 2020 as the US slid into a recession. I took this picture of a sign at a dollar store which had been completely closed for almost two months.
Tumblr media
The whole Trump clan was disdainful of the sacrifices hundreds of millions of Americans were making.
Why has the U.S. COVID-19 response been so bad? Jared Kushner, Vanity Fair suggests.
At Times Square Jared and Ivanka's contemptuousness was made into an ad before Election Day.
Tumblr media
If you are looking for the Original Sin of Trump's pandemic response, it was on January 22nd when he basically told CNBC's Joe Kernen that COVID-19 was nothing to worry about.
Tumblr media
Of course it wasn't "just fine".
Trump did not declare a state of emergency for seven weeks. That gave the virus plenty of time for it to spread throughout the US.
Republicans know that their Dear Leader totally mishandled the pandemic response. That's why they repeatedly try to make Dr. Fauci a type of scapegoat for Trump's horrendous incompetence. Dr. Fauci has spent his entire career fighting disease. Donald Trump has spent his entire career narcissistically promoting himself.
Harry Truman had a sign on his desk saying: "The Buck Stops Here!" If Trump had a sign on his Oval Office desk (which he seldom used except for photo ops) it would be: "It's Everybody's Fault But Mine!"
Don't be hesitant to remind people of how awful 2020 was. And point the finger of blame at the orange blob who was responsible for the catastrophe.

Eric Hananoki at MMFA:
The California Republican Party has been backing the state Assembly campaign of Denise Aguilar Mendez, a commentator who has a history of pushing far-right conspiracy theories.  Aguilar shared a bizarre and antisemitic conspiracy theory essentially claiming that the power grid was turned off in parts of California in 2019 not to prevent fires but to stop the Rothschilds, a prominent Jewish family, from trafficking children. After referencing the Rothschilds, Aguilar claimed that “there's certain families in the United States all over the world who are in charge of us. It's the central banking system. They're in charge of our money.”  “That's the reasons why we go to war and all that stuff,” she later added. Aguilar is running for California State Assembly in District 13. The California Republican Party is supporting her campaign and California Republican Assembly Leader James Gallagher has been backing her. Aguilar also wrote that she attended an event this summer for California Republican U.S. Senate nominee Steve Garvey, with whom she took a picture for social media.  
Aguilar helped found two organizations: the anti-vaccine Freedom Angels and the “Mom Militia.” She is an election conspiracy theorist: USA Today’s Will Carless reported on her activities on January 6 in a March article headlined, “Calif. statehouse candidate says she didn't join Capitol riot. Video shows otherwise.”  She is a right-wing commentator who has appeared on outlets like One America News. She also frequently posted online commentaries prior to her run for office. In a 2019 video, Aguilar shared a conspiracy theory that was apparently so odd that she herself said, “My tinfoil hat is going to show today.” 
At the time, California was facing severe wildfires, which prompted PG&E to turn off some of the power grid. Aguilar had a different theory, stating that the shut off was “not to prevent fires” but was actually because “white hats” — a term often used by conspiracy theorists to describe people working within major institutions who they believe are fighting perceived corruption — “had to turn off the power grid in California in order to find the underground tunnels” housing missing trafficked children. (“Underground tunnels” have been part of several prominent conspiracy theories over the years.)  Aguilar then expanded that the people the white hats were fighting against were “the Rothschilds,” who she claimed run PG&E. She said: “So Rothschild, there's a family, there's certain families in the United States all over the world who are in charge of us. It's the central banking system. They're in charge of our money. The Federal Reserve is not a government entity. It's actually a private company owned by these families that control our money. So that's another rabbit hole to go into. That's the reasons why we go to war and all that stuff.”
California Assembly candidate Denise Aguilar Mendez, backed by California Republicans, has a long history of pushing inane far-right conspiracies such as Pizzagate, adrenochrome, and Rothschilds.

I have seen far right conspiracy theorists sling around the words "controlled opposition" and claim that both Democrats and Republicans are controlled by ~the Elite~ and are therefore basically exactly the same too often to take far leftists seriously when they do the same thing under a different banner.
To put it even less nicely, I know what a political cult looks like and some of these people out there are ticking off a whole lot of boxes.

I don’t usually bite into conspiracy theories as most are very stupid and can be explained with “people aren’t that smart or coordinated”
But boy is it strange that we have constant mass shooting ending dozens of lives in the US almost weekly but trump has “assassination attempts” that fail so miserably they seem like fuckin ops
And always when he is on the back foot btw
He picked Vance which tanked his polls and then almost gets shot by a person that got suspiciously close and hit his teleprompter which was at an odd angle to be hit for someone aiming at trump
And now he gets destroyed in a debate and there is another attempt at his golf course which also failed and no one was harmed and no one saw it happen
Either people really are shit at killing in the US and all the other shootings are ordained and guided by god for some plan or they are ops and he figured almost getting shot is great for his polls
Just saying tyrants and wannabe dictators have used false assimilation attempts to gain power before (Hitler comes to mind)
