End of the Year Eant

   2021 will soon be over. I had hoped that I would be over at a friend's home tonight playing boardgames and enjoying the company of friends but the pandemic pretty much killed that. I blame the fucking anti-vaxxers. On that note, more anti-vax nutjobs are dying of Covid or trying to kill themselves in their fight to not get Covid. Here are some videos.

  These people are idiots. They won't take the vaccine which has been proven to be effective against Covid, but they'll drink a toxic mix of chemicals in their efforts to avoid catching Covid. Of course, some of these morons are still in Dallas waiting for JFK junior to rise from the dead and anoint Trump King of America. 

  Mike Lindell's grasp of reality is still quite tenuous and it's getting weaker as time progresses. Every time he fails to make his case that the election was rigged, it's not because he has no idea what he's doing or that his so called evidence is nothing but garbage. It's because everyone is part of a conspiracy against him or nothing more than a bot or troll.

Will Lindell ever wake up and realize he's wasting his time? I seriously doubt it. And the longer he keeps this up, the more likely it will be that Dominion will win their $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit against him. Lindell stands to lose everything yet he continues to dig his grave deeper and deeper. 

  

The Threat of Stupid People

   I came across a few videos regarding the theory of stupidity. In them, the narrator states that stupid people are an even greater threat to us than evil people. I'm going to post the videos below and then give my take on the matter.

  After watching these videos, one thing is apparent. Trump supporters are mostly composed of stupid people. You see them in the news quite a bit. They're the ones that still believe Trump won the 2020 election despite the abundance of evidence to the contrary. Nothing changes their minds. They're also the ones refusing to wear masks or get vaccinated despite the fact that Covid-19 has killed literally millions of people worldwide. The fact that some of these people are in the medical field gives weight to the one law that states that stupidity is independent of other factors. 

  On the bandit part of the graph, you have the likes of Fox News, OAN and other right wing media outlets. They're making money off of the stupid by fueling their conspiracy theories, anger and hate. They know that they don't have to present any evidence to back up their claims. The stupid will swallow their verbal diarrhea hook, line and sinker. I wanted to regard Trump as one of the stupid but I don't believe that's true. He's not the 'very stable genius' he claims to be but he is particularly good at grifting the stupid. He gets them all stirred up and then hits them up for cash. Trump's Truth Social media site doesn't look like it's going to last. Investors are already pulling out. I believe Trump is using Truth Social as a short term way to score some more cash. The site will crash and burn. He'll whine about how Big Tech was responsible yet again, for silencing conservative voices and beg his followers for more money to fight the good fight. Here's some videos on that.

  Truth Social, Gettr, Parler and other right wing blogging sites are simple there so stupid people can converse with other stupid people. The problem is there's no one there for them to try to antagonize and trigger. Going full on contard is no fun if everyone they're speaking to agrees with them. They need liberals to present the facts so they can blatantly ignore them and continue to spew their shit. That gives them their smug sense of mistaken superiority. 

  It's this blatant ignoring of the facts that makes the stupid so dangerous. Nothing sways them from their course. When the facts become too much to bear, they lash out. The Jan. 6th riot at the Capitol was a prime example of this behavior. They couldn't deal with the fact that Biden won by a wider margin of votes than Trump did when he beat Hillary Clinton in 2016. They couldn't handle the fact that Trump's team of lawyers failed like 60+ times in court to prove the election was rife with voter fraud. Mike Lindell to this day still claims he has proof voter fraud occurred despite the fact that he has yet to present any credible evidence to support said claims. That's the difference between the stupid and the bandit. When confronted with Dominion's defamation lawsuit, Fox News and OAN stopped claiming Dominion had rigged the election and cut ties with Lindell. While they profited off the lie initially, continuing down that path would've almost certainly resulted in them losing the lawsuit and paying out a fortune to Dominion. Lindell, on the other hand, just keeps doubling down on his losing bet. He just keeps making more and more outrageous and asinine claims. I can't wait for the trial to start just so I can watch Lindell go down in flames.

And the Conspiracy Theories Begin

   Mike Lindell's cyber symposium is over and nothing came of it. No evidence of election tampering was produced. For sane people, this was because the data Lindell claimed would prove the 2020 election was stolen from Trump was little more than meaningless metadata. For Lindell and other crazy Trump cultists, the symposium was hacked, attacked by Antifa and done in by various organizations like the CIA, NSA etc. Here's some videos.

  Every time someone disproves Lindell's claims, said person is clearly part of some grand scheme to discredit his "irrefutable evidence". He's so committed to his cause that no amount of counter evidence will sway him. He doubles down every time. This stance will not serve him well. Dominion's lawsuit against Lindell and others has been allowed to move ahead by US District Judge Carl Nichols. Dominion is suing each individual or news organization for over a billion dollars each. If Dominion wins (and I hope they do), these people are done. Fox News, OAN and Newsmax might be able deal with having to make these massive pay outs, but the cited individuals will be financially annihilated. This is the bitch slap these lying, motherfucking contard hypocrites deserve. They must be made to pay.

37 Terabytes of Shit

   My Pillow Guy Mike Lindell dropped a massive pile of shit in South Dakota from the 10th to the 12th in the form of his cyber symposium. This symposium was supposed to present "irrefutable evidence" that China hacked the 2020 election and switched votes from Trump to Biden. The results were FAR less than spectacular.

  So, on Aug. 13th, the Big Lie will be revealed and Trump will be reinstated as President. Did that happen? No. Biden's still President. Trump's still a narcissistic, xenophobic, misogynistic, orange haired loser.

What exactly did Lindell present at his symposium? Nothing more than a 37 terabyte stream of cyber diarrhea flowing out of Lindell's ass and down America's left leg.

  Lindell wants to bring his so called "irrefutable evidence" before the Supreme Court in the belief that they will vote 9-0 in his favor and reinstate Trump. Why doesn't he do just that? It's time to put up or shut the fuck up. Of course, the Court either won't review his case or they'll vote against it and Lindell will, once again, start coming up with more conspiracy theories regarding Antifa, the Deep State, China or someone else trying to bury the truth. The shit storm will continue. Dominion's defamation lawsuit against Lindell hasn't shut him up. He just keeps running his mouth. If Lindell loses this lawsuit, will that end his demented ranting? Unlikely. This guy's gone off the deep end and he's never coming back. Will the QAnon cultists eventually tire of Lindell and abandon him? I don't know. These people seem to be remarkably stubborn. They might dig in deeper and come up with even more bullshit conspiracy theories to explain away the failure of their predictions.

  The Dominion and Smartmatic lawsuits must succeed. These lying assholes need to realize that actions have consequences otherwise this madness will continue. They must be held accountable.

A Few More Updates

   I've received my first Covid-19 vaccination this past Friday. I'm due to get my second shot on April 23rd. All I have to do in the meantime is avoid catching Covid-19.

  Some time back, I found a pair of airpods on the ground when I was leaving work. Since they appeared to be in good condition, I picked them up and kept them. Problem was I had no way to charge them up to see if they worked or not. Today I ordered a refurbished charging case. Hopefully, these airpods work. It'll be nice to have some wireless earphones.

  My federal refund has yet to be deposited in my account. I wish I knew what the fuck was going on with it. I need that money to help pay down my Aurora bill. I'll be back to working full time when I return to work this Monday.

  I received a letter from the Treasury Dept. stating that I will be receiving another $600.00 stimulus payment sometime in the next 7 days. This is an unexpected windfall. Most of the money will go to paying on my medical bills but I'm planning on getting 12 sets of Battle Dice for Cthulhu Wars. Every faction will have their own set of 20 Battle Dice plus there will be a neutral set in case the dice pool goes over 20 dice. My place of employment is offering $100.00 to employees that receive both vaccine shots for Covid-19. Once I get my second shot on 4/23/21, I'm going to find out how I can get my $100.00.

  On the national news front, the Smartmatic and Dominion lawsuits against Fox News and others are working their way through the courts. I don't want either of these cases to be settled out of court. I want these two companies to win and wipe the smug, condescending grins off the faces of these lying, hypocritical propaganda monkeys once and for all. A massive hit to their wallets will do that nicely.

  Sidney Powell, Trump's former lawyer, has come up with the most absurd defense regarding the Dominion lawsuit. She claims that no reasonable person would believe her statements and that she was just expressing her opinion. If you read the linked article, you'll see what a load of bullshit that is. Apparently, she was trying something like the Tucker Carlson defense. Personally, I want to see Sidney Powell, Fox News, OAN and everyone else Smartmatic and Dominion are suing lose big and have to pay through the nose.
