Stupid conspiracy theories

What is certain is that the King is having chemo

Got to respect the Queen, Camilla for stepping in so that people are not let down.

She's not a born Royal and never wanted to be Queen ... imagine suddenly being thrust into that.

Damn. I have to up my FB game. For the most part I only see very tame posts like recipes and taxes (international implications) and international moves...

Oh, and I did see the Kate photos. I agree with others that she has a right to privacy. But if you want that don't go around and publish (or have published) photos through official channels. That is just asking for trouble

Right!  One of my favorite groups I'm in is the Dull Mens Club!  Its so dull its fun. Also, I follow way to many animals....

Dull men's club has been showing up in my feed. I don't understand it and was beginning to think some if it was code for kinky stuff or something. I'm getting tired of combing thru all the rando fb crap.

She’s only in this for click bait. She’s grinning at how many hits ‘baby organ harvesting’ is going to get her.

She knows she’s got limited time in the national spotlight to be famous. Either Trump wins and she gets to be in his cabinet until he has to fire her for sheer incompetence or Trump and a bunch of MAGA House members lose and she’s relegated to the back bench until some scandal runs her out and she’s back in Rome Georgia.

Remember the quaint outrage about Michelle Obama’s sleeveless tops/dresses?

Its all-fake outrage. I need to start a thread on a RW opinion piece I read. The author's two main points seemed to be that all President's cheat on their wives and that many of them inflate their net worth so what's the big deal? So, he saw nothing wrong with the hush money on the porn star and used a false belief that all President's inflate their net worth to Trumpian status to push the narrative that a majority of people see Trump's legal troubles as him being singled out. They don't.

I remember back when Clinton was on trial, and the outcry was that kids were going to be ruined for life because of his actions with Monica. Now, somehow, he thinks it's OK that parents should explain porn stars, hush money, and Presidential private parts?!
Whie he's probably a planted paid for Trump shill, it is still amazing to me someone could write this and possibly believe some of it.

All Kate had to do is not edit the photo in a sloppy obvious way. That was stupid and hopefully she will learn from it. Taking pics is not the issue. Editing them is the problem.

To be fair - the parents explaining Trump’s sex stuff to the kids now are all ruined from having Bill’s sex stuff explained to them, so they are making terminally bad decisions. Maybe Clinton did ruin an entire generation with his blowy and now our country is on the verge of collapse.

I've made the mistake of commenting on Flat Earther and Plantet X pages (because I can't help myself from pointing out how stupid they are sometimes) and now I get all the crazy shit showing up in my feed. 

I really do hate the whole Facebook feed thing and wish I could limit what shows up to just my friends and/or my groups only.

same. I've blocked enough ads and suggestions that I'm no longer allowed to do anything but snooze for 30 days.🤬

My worst crazy making double standard right now - Fani Willis can’t conduct the case against Trump in Georgia because she had an affair with a guy who was working for her on the case, and spent $4000 on a vacation for them. This is disqualifying, according to Trump minions. But Clarence Thomas’s wife helped organize the J6 protest, and the Thomas’s have enjoyed many wonderful ‘gifts’ from their right wing friends, like luxury vacations, a free home for his mom, private jet trips, etc - yet not a peep when Thomas failed to recuse himself from J6 cases that come to the SCOTUS.  All of THAT behavior is perfectly fine.

The royals have always photoshopped. Before film the painters took a lot of liberties, making royals taller, thinner, younger, etc. The best example I saw was a family portrait of Henry VIII with Jane Seymour and their teenage son. She died giving birth to that son - and that isn’t the only sus thing in that picture. When film used metal plates, there were artists who would modify the plates to make more flattering pictures. And if you think Kate is the first royal to use photoshop - I got a bridge to sell you.

The real issue is how bad the photoshop was.

 And all the outrage about how she deserves her privacy (true) despite the fact that Kensington palace decided to break that privacy request.

Anyone remember the "outrage" about Harry and Megan not hiding away in the shadows at all times despite their desire for some privacy? Americans have nothing over Brits (or other countries for that matter) wrt double standards. Seems to me like social media offer master classes into expressing that kind of behavior

That's what I was thinking. Incompetence is not why Trump fires people.

here is the thing, though, right?

some time a few thousand years ago, people realized that herd animals like to gravitate around singular leaders.  and ever since then, we have ended up with people like Trump and the Royals.

imagine if people were more like cats.  they would shrug their shoulders and lick themselves.

Unfortunately herd animals are smarter than us. They gravitate towards herd leaders that put the safety/survival of the herd first rather than herd leaders that are only concerned about themselves.

The conspiracy lot are saying that it isn't her....... She isn't looking her best but it is her.

They are even saying its because she has had Covid vaccine.

Personally, I think its because someone at the hospital where she was being treated, had accessed her medical records.... and they were about to exploit.
There is an investigation going on, so we'll soon find out who did this to them.

I found a great one today. Candace Owen is willing to stake her career on Macrons wife Brigette being a man.

The proof appears to be photos of herself and her brother as kids - they look identical. So therefore they are the same person.

And it’s important because the Macrons are being blackmailed to pass laws that benefit the mysterious blackmailer.

Owen’s claiming this is the biggest scandal ever.

Meh. If Macron announced he was gay and his wife was a man I doubt many Frenchmen would get bent out of shape about it. That’s an American thing.

Candace Owens Is Out at Daily Wire After Months of Railing Against Jewish People

Far-right influencer Candace Owens is no longer with the Daily Wire after three years of working as a commentator for the network, the company announced on Friday.

"Daily Wire and Candace Owens have ended their relationship," Daily Wire cofounder and CEO Jeremy Boreing announced on X (formerly known as Twitter) on Friday morning.

Owens also confirmed on X that she would no longer be working with the Daily Wire, writing, "The rumors are true - I am finally free," before redirecting her followers to her website, adding, "There will be many announcements in the weeks to come." In a separate tweet, she linked to her YouTube channel, telling her followers she would be resuming posting content on there "after a brief hiatus."
Though neither Boreing nor Owens publicly elaborated on the circumstances behind her departure, the announcement comes on the tail end of months of public friction between Owens and Daily Wire cofounder Ben Shapiro over their conflicting views on the Israel-Hamas war, as well as Owens' promotion of antisemitic conspiracy theories. Founded in 2015, the Daily Wire has been criticized for promoting anti-LGBTQ and transphobic content, such as the Matt Walsh documentary What Is a Woman?

She looked tired. Clearly she has been ill.

I am not a conspiracy person, and I believe that Kate’s condition is what they say it is. That said, I don’t have a large knowledge base - but the limited people I know who have gone through chemo, by week 3 they have already shaved their head because of the hair loss. It is reported she started chemo in Feb - and her hair looked firmly intact. Either that was the most bestest wig or is there some kind of chemo where you keep your hair?? None of my business and I hope she journeys back to good health quickly.

Not every form of chemotherapy causes hair loss. Depends on the cancer as to what drugs she has received. The rapid advances in oncology have lead to broader options for treatment, so when lay people use the word “chemo” it could encompass things like immunotherapy, which does not cause hair loss, for example. Wouldn’t read much into intact head of hair

 I was kind of hoping this information coming out would silence the stupid conspiracy people. Oh well. 

Very sorry for someone with cancer, but especially someone with three young kids and living in a fishbowl with cancer.  Best of luck to them.
