Conspiracy Theories

This was a story that caught my eye today.  

Apparently our right-wing idiots* are furious that they don't have a chance to play "Stop The Steal" as a certain tangerine hued idiot inspired lots of other American idiots to do on January 6th.  So they've come up with a variation on the Reichsbürger Conspiracy.

They claim (and I quote the BBC because I am one of the Sheeple) "Followers claim neither Germany nor Austria were officially recognised as independent states by Allied force commanders after World War Two, operationally known as the Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force (SHAEF)... SHAEF conspiracy theory believers say the current German elections are invalid because they are organised by an non-existent state - and anybody taking part is committing treason."

I know I'm constantly surprised by the willful ignorance of lots of people and I really shouldn't be, but holy moly.

It's not a surprise I keep myself to myself & my opinions too.  I do like flowers though.

*we have left wing idiots too.  They don't tend to shoot people for not wearing a mask though
