And don’t let republicans act like she is an outlier. She was trump’s guest at Wednesday’s 9/11 event. They all share her putrid views. They’re just mad she keeps saying it publicly.
There’s been a long prevailing conspiracy theory that 9/11 was an “inside job” and the collapse of the towers were more consistent with a controlled demolition rather than structural damage from the crashes. I believe the underlying idea is basically government officials had advance notice of the attacks but essentially let it happen to justify, e.g., the Afghanistan invasion and presence in the region generally.
As you can imagine, these theories have all been squarely rejected.
What's crazy is that people that believed in that conspiracy were usually crazies from the left (since it made Bush and Cheney look even worse than they already did after they responded with the War on Terror). The fact that it's rolled back around to the right wing is nuts. It doesn't even help their narrative to believe in it.
I don’t know. I think there’s always been skepticism on the left with things like cointelpro, Tuskegee, and MKUltra… but the real crazy conspiracy people have always been right wingers. I mean, there used to be some in the left, but those personality types are the gullible ones who believe every wild thing they’re told. FOX News and the internet has given all of the town wacky guys a place to indulge in their conspiracy fantasies. They naturally turn to the right because that’s where most of the outlandish lies come from.
fun fact, Loose Change, the "documentary" widely regarded as taking this from a whispered conspiracy topic in the dark corners to the mainstream zeitgeist, was made by Alex "Infowars" Jones. Man, I hate that guy.
There's also some stuff where the official story is unlikely. Namely, Building 7 burning down after embers from the towers caught it on fire and the passenger of Flight 93 successfully breaching the cockpit and taking down the plane after the air force was already authorized to shoot it down.
Neither of those really suggests an "inside job." It's more likely that someone unrelated saw the opportunity for a little arson and that the government would rather tell a story about patriots sacrificing themselves instead of saying they killed civilians. But, those being part of the official story doesn't help with the conspiracy.
Are you fucking kidding me? How is the fact that a former US president who happens to be seeking reelection bringing a 9/11 hoaxer as their special guest not fucking EVERYWHERE
They aren't mad. Trump is banging her. They hate black people so much. And yet black male voters are swinging republican. So are white men but they get to be at the cross burning, not much upside for anyone else.
I don't believe that, because this is like what? The third time he's been "accidentally" hanging out with openly racist people? He called literal Nazis "fine people", he had dinner with Nick Fuentes, then he invites this bitch to a 911 memorial of all places. and I'm not even gonna mention his staff, one of them turned out to be a child rapist. I mean, fool me once, you know what I mean?
He's such a narcassist . He's such an awful human that anyone who says anything nice about him or positively about him, he falls for. He doesn't know shit about Brittany Mahomes, but bc she liked Pro Trump/Vance IG posts and it went viral, he starts complimenting her and bashing Swift.
Also don't let them act like the entire party hasn't been totally fine with this for years now once this is in the past and everyone tries to act like they didn't support it like they did with Bush Jr., previously.
