    I can’t even imagine what happens to these qultists when they finally are faced with reality that all their conspiracy theory stuff is garbage. How foolish they must feel trying to defend themselves “…but the internet said…” when faced with the consequences of their actions.

      Historically, they just deflect, whatabout, move the goal posts, strawman, etc their way out of the conversation / into a comfy place where they’re totally right and the rest of the world is in on the conspiracy.

        The the guy in the article, they do that in prison? As in, even after being arrested, convicted, sentenced they still hold to their crazy?

          Pleased to say I haven’t had the opportunity to assess what people are doing inside prison.

          I haven’t heard anything about the political subculture there, but I do know it’s extremely race-driven and now-a-days that’s pretty much synonymous with right-wing.

          So, sending the dude to Hogwarts school of racism and criminal behavior, yeah I’d assume his current shittiness is about to be amplified.
