A Forum for Discussing the Green Party Campaign
I think by now we are familiar with the #PizzaGate conspiracy theory. Briefly, it was a theory that jumbled Wikileaks posts with anti-Clinton conspiracy theories in the blender of far-right Trump sites to come up with the claim that a pizza shop was running a Democratic Party pedophile ring in its basement. (General Flynn, Trump’s …
Wikileaks fights the Rothschilds! On October 22, 2016, Wikileaks posted this odd link. It seems to divide the baby of conspiracy theory between the Hillary Clinton is Satan harlots and the Rothschilds are Satan harlots. The cover of that week’s Economist featured a rather lurid picture of Putin. Wikileaks rushed to label this Hillary Clinton …
A researcher writing an article about the death of Vince Foster for the right-wing Daily Mail went to the National Archives in Washington DC. On the first day of his visit to the archive, the archivist on duty gave him the documents but on the second day, another archivist said he couldn’t find them. This …

Here is a foretaste: The Wikileak Claim On August 1, Wikileak’s Twitter fed us this morsel: Summary of the What Is Wrong with this Tweet Lafarge did …
Action Items … Accusations of Rigging Primaries I next visited the Bernie or Bust site Action Items for Jill Stein, formerly Action Items for Bernie Sanders. Like most such sites I’ve visited, it saw conscious fraud in every glitch in the primaries. Thus, regarding the Washington state caucuses, it made this accusation against the Clinton …
This is the first of a series of visits I’ve made to Facebook pages that at least nominally support Dr. Jill Stein. I am visiting these sites to get a sense of the rank and file supporters of the Jill Stein campaign. If you believe I am being unfair, or writing a “hit piece,” pay …
From a post on Facebook. “Stop it, just fucking stop it! “Alex Jones and his “Infowars,” “Breitbart,” these are Alt-Right websites. They are not places anyone should be getting information from.
