And? Honestly, these are pretty damn tame. I don't understand the point you're trying to make.

While I personally disagree with at least one of the statements you quoted and some other ideas held by the author, many of the ideas presented in the posted Twitter thread still stand. Ad hominem attacks are worthless in a discussion of ideas.

Some of the conspiracy theories are part of the twitter thread. It's entirely reasonable to discuss these here, especially if the thread and account get this amount of attention.

>Honestly, these are pretty damn tame.

Comments like this one make me seriously fear for the political system of the United States. If that's "tame" I do not know what isn't.
