A supporter of the so-called “People’s Convoy” trucker protest told a reporter Thursday that Russian President Vladimir Putin has been unfairly criticized for his invasion of Ukraine and is actually a “good guy” because he’s “taken out” all of the “child trafficking areas” in the country.
Speaking with Andrew Callaghan of Channel 5, the man remarked:
The extreme right-wing QAnon conspiracy theory movement preaches that there’s a cabal of Satan-worshiping pedophile sex traffickers who extract “adrenochrome” from the blood of children in an effort to render themselves immortal:
Adrenochrome, which has no rejuvenating effects, and very questionable psychedelic properties, would have long faded into obscurity had it not been rejuvenated by the QAnon twaddle. And it is not just innocent balderdash that is being spread, as exemplified by the man who swallowed the adrenochrome theory hook, line, and sinker and attempted to liberate children he believed were being kept captive in a Washington pizza parlor by Hillary Clinton. He brandished a rifle and a pistol as he “investigated the crime,” threatening customers and employees. He was subsequently arrested and sentenced to four and a half years in jail.
The man at the trucker protest rally also suggested that when former President Donald Trump was given a soccer ball by Putin during a 2018 meeting in Helsinki, it contained all sorts of valuable information:
“If people would have watched when Trump came into office at the beginning, when you saw them hand that soccer ball off, that soccer ball had so much information in it to take down everybody that Putin’s had all the intel on for years, it had a lot of data in it. And that’s what’s going on.”
It’s tempting to dismiss people such as this man as outliers, but keep in mind that tens of millions of them voted for Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020 and are hoping they’ll get a chance to cast a ballot for him in 2024.
The end of American democracy will be brought about by willful ignorance.
