Cirsten Weldon, the batshit QAnon conspiracy theorist you’re about to read about, was actually right about one thing: she said that “gullibility kills.” She was right, although not the way she meant it. She used to mock people standing in line for the COVID vaccine, saying, “The vaccines kill, don’t get it! This is how gullible these idiots are. They’re all getting vaccine!”
The gullible idiots are still on this side of the grass and Weldon is not, which is beneficial to the cause of reality. She had a lottt of crazy ideas and plenty of gullible folks did listen to her. If you haven’t had your dose of toxic right-wing disinformation for the day, lay back and watch Weldon do her thing.
We’ll start with my favorite video, which is how the FBI has attempted to assassinate Donald Trump on a number of occasions but they keep missing the mark because he has clones that act as decoys to protect him.

Maybe she’s right. Maybe the real Trump is still hiding in the bunker in Washington, D.C. and the FBI said, “the hell with him, let him stay there” and the Secret Service protects the clones while they golf.
I wonder if the clones were made to age in accelerated fashion. I mean, it’s not like we’ve had 70-some years to develop a Trump clone let alone several, from scratch, right? Or, maybe these are Star Trek clones, where you put Trump on a big lazy-Susan and spin him around real fast and an adult clone shows up on the other side. That must be it. Silly me.
Then there’s this.
Since Cirsten W's source is never wrong, I guess we have no choice but to believe that RBG has been dead since 2019 and that Chief Justice John Roberts got $3 trillion dollars after the 9/11 attacks. pic.twitter.com/IHGwPRHmeZ

In late December, however, Weldon started showing symptoms of coronavirus infection. In her last video, posted on Dec. 28, Weldon struggled through her remarks about the coming overthrow of the United States government, coughing and complaining that she was exhausted.
Three days later, Weldon was hospitalized in Camarillo, California. She posted a picture of herself wearing an oxygen mask to Instagram and claimed she had “bacterial pneumonia.” Weldon wrote in a post on the social media network Telegram that she refused to take coronavirus treatment remdesivir, calling it “Dr Fauci’s Resmedervir (sic).”
Weldon’s death from COVID is just the latest instance of a far-right personality who opposed vaccination being killed by the virus. On Jan. 3, radio host Doug Kuzma died while infected with the coronavirus. In August, QAnon promoter Robert David Steele died of the virus shortly after posting a picture of himself in an oxygen mask and vowing to still refuse the vaccine. […]
In the face of these deaths, their surviving friends and supporters have started to allege that the dead QAnon figures are being murdered, either because they were refused internet folk remedies like ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine, or because they were killed by the deep-state to cover up their conspiracy theories. In December, Kuzma and a number of other conspiracy theorists were sickened with COVID-like symptoms after appearing together at a conference. Rather than acknowledge that they had COVID, the far-right influencers suggested they had been targeted by an anthrax attack.
After Weldon’s death, her QAnon allies threatened to pursue violent action against staff at the hospital where she died. Scott McKay, a QAnon personality known as the “Patriot Streetfighter,” said he would publicize the names of doctors and nurses involved in treating Weldon, saying he wanted to “put the fear into these medical professionals” in a Telegram post. McKay proposed the hospital staff be sentenced to death, or be murdered in vigilante violence.
We may laugh, and well we should because this is absurd, but the fact remains that there are people in this country who subscribe to an alternate reality that they get via right-wing media. For reasons only they know, they don’t like the real world. So they created themselves another one, reinforced it with a cult, and now they live in a world of their own device, reinforcing one another’s unreality.
This is America, 2022.
These are people who are insane.
As I said, the crazies have always been with us. That’s nothing new. But with this degree of organization, made possible via the internet and encouraged by right-wing media, that puts the crazies in a different category.
I’m getting the idea that, perhaps, the insurance companies should treat cases like this, where the deceased has stated that they are opposed to vaccination and/or refused to be vaccinated as ‘suicide’ and simply refuse to pay out for medical expenses and/or death benefits.
Knowing how insurance companies tend to look for loopholes. I’m actually surprised they haven’t started doing this already
Seems there should be a basic reality question one would have to answer correctly in order to obtain a driver’s license. I want to live.
“Or, maybe these are Star Trek clones, where you put Trump on a big lazy-Susan and spin him around real fast and an adult clone shows up on the other side. That must be it.”
Just a note but those weren’t clones, they were a special kind of android.
I thought rovers was on their side. Shows what I know. Proves to me if in a crowd, stand next to trump. Safest place on earth. Because if FBI wanted him dead, he would be dead.
Just when you think these yahoos could not do or say something more asinine, another day dawns.
