Fundamentalism, Patriarchy, Misogyny - not nice, but what's that got to do with vaccination or Coronavirus Denialism? The swarming tactics of the far-right agenda in USA

I am a mother, nurse, doula and herbalist. I've given birth at home 4 times, and all my children are healthily un-vaccinated. We use nutrition, herbs and supplements to keep fit and well, so I guess you could say my "crunchy" credentials are valid.

 

Until early this year, I was part of a huge Facebook group called Stop Mandatory Vaccinations. This had previously been a useful source of thousands of scientific papers and publications examining the risks and benefits of vaccinations. The general consensus was, vaccinations, like any health intervention, have their place, but can have significant (even deadly) side effects for some people, so therefore should not be forced or mandatory. There was a big difference between "stop vaccinations" and "stop MANDATORY vaccination".

Now for any one reading this who might think I have a screw loose for even considering not vaccinating my precious children, consider - if I hadn't been part of that group, out of interest in rigorous scientific examination of this complex issue, I  wouldn't have been witness to what happened next.

Late in 2019 and during early 2020 I noticed more posts popping up in the group that had less to do with health and quite a lot more to do with partisan politics. Trump-ists are like annoying mosquitos all over social media, and (as a non-American), you tend to just swat them away and press on regardless.

But as news of a novel coronavirus and eventual global pandemic began to filter through, in February and March, there were more posts not just about politics, but about conspiracy theories. Measured discussion on vaccinations became lost to breathless posts reporting the latest Q "breadcrumb" as we were told "it's happening!" and "wait for the Storm!" We learned that Oprah's house had been cordoned off any that she was finally under arrest for the tunnels under her house funnelling poor brown children from South America (presumably under the ocean?) We saw photos of crime scene tape around her house, which was "proof". We then learned that Tom Hanks stint in a Gold Coast hospital was actually a cover for his arrest for paedophilia. (As an Australian that was a bit irritating, because it implied that our country's news reporters are either a bunch of liars or a bunch of gullible twats.) We were told that Trump was "on our side" and only pretending to go along with vaccinations until such time as he could "bring down Big Pharma".

It takes all sorts, I thought, and continued to scroll past any posts that seemed a little cray-cray. But increasingly, such posts were swamping the group and drowning out the previous sensible and measured discussions we had enjoyed previously. And the posters did not take kindly to any voices of dissent or caution. You either 'Loved Trump' and 'Believed Q' or you were, pretty much, Satan.

And for anyone, anywhere, who's ever been part of a cult, or part of fundamentalism, be it Christian, Islamic, Judaic, Communist, Fascists, or otherwise .. red flags began waving.

But the disinformation kept coming. Whenever humans are under stress, dealing with an "unprecedented" situation and with "novel" virus that NO ONE has definitive answers about yet, disinformation spreads rapidly. Balanced, tested, and peer-reviewed info isn't as salacious and doesn't spread as fast as every alarmist post about 5G or the virus lab in Wuhan or Bill Gates or the take-down of "the Cabal"

As a qualified herbalist, I started seeing posts in the group warning that Elderberry Syrup could cause cytokine storm in COVID19. I'm hesitant to wade in on things I don't know much about, but this is my lane. I make Elderberry Syrup. I've read scores of monographs. I understand the inflammatory cascade. So I began posting what I hoped would be helpful and moderating commentary from reputable herbalists such as Dr Kerry Bone and Aviva Romm. What I then experienced is that the people gobbling up the Q breadcrumbs and re-sharing questionable memes appeared not to be so keen on reading 17 pages of careful scholarship. It just doesn't provide quite the same buzz.

But then, the Coronavirus disinformation started. Post after post claiming that it wasn't real, it was deliberately manufactured and released, it was fake, it was a Plandemic, there were no deaths, the hospitals were empty, the government (what - all governments?) were lying. And every action that any government took anywhere were all just a ploy to wreck American capitalism and usher in "Communism".

People started leaving. They posted, "This used to be a great group for actually learning about vaccination risks, but never mind MAGA caps - you guys are all going for the tin-foil hats!" And the response would be "Buh-bye!" amid a flurry of memes.

In one post, I mildly suggested that if USA had universal health care such as we enjoy in other developed countries, maybe people wouldn't have to pay $3000 for a Coronavirus test. Response? "Go grow vegetables in Venezuela then, you Commie!"

At this point, I realised that the tone of the group had changed from valid health concerns to an extremist political agenda.

When people started posting that wearing masks is really just a ploy to end free speech and a symbol of being "trauma bonded to authoritarian governments" like a bunch of bonneted handmaids, and how ignoring physical distancing policies were a matter of patriotic duty - at the same time that doctors and nurses were beginning to experience first hand just how deadly and insidious the virus could be, I left. In early March, I warned that their stance of believing conspiracy theories, and ignoring health policies, sowing division and spreading disinformation, would take a horrible toll in USA.

In pure frustration, I posted: "Your individualism, exceptionalism, denialism and entitlement is going to get thousands of you killed. You deserve yourselves."

And I hoped that I would be proved WRONG.

Life was comparatively peaceful after leaving that group, and concentrating on measures at home to keep the family safe and thriving through physical distancing measures in our own country. I already worked from home anyway and we like having the kids at home, so we weren't impacted too negatively.

But then, in the same way as I saw right-wing extremism take over that one Facebook group, I began to see the same "swarming" effect of making dis--information go viral happening across social media platforms.

To my horror, I started to see quite mainstream, thoughtful and intelligent people falling prey to the disinformation social media "bombing" campaign on social media.

Then I realised we were watching the infiltration of the alternative left by the conservative American far-right.

And I have seen all this before. It's all too familiar. Anyone who has ever come out of a cult or any shade of religious or political fundamentalism recognizes these dynamics.

So I thought I should start researching to find out more about what on earth was going on.

I will try to put together all the pieces of the puzzle so you can understand WHY I am so concerned, and WHY I am bothering to speak out, instead of just calmly going on my way and letting people believe whatever they want to believe. Because they're not. They're not believing what they want to believe. They're being indoctrinated. And it's been going on for decades. This is a divide and conquer strategy not only by the alt/far right and their particular agenda, but possibly, even the work of Russian operatives who know how to exploit the deep divisions in American society for their own de-stabilization aims.

The lowest common denominator, and ultimate agenda, as far as I can tell, is patriarchy.

Before you dismiss ME as being the tin-foil-hatted conspiracy theorist, please read carefully these disinformation briefings from the ISD - the Institute for Strategic Dialogue - "Powering solutions to extremism and polarization".

For anyone sincerely trying to reconcile valid concerns about corporate monopoly and capitalist excess, while trying to sift through various alternative narratives and apparent conspiracy theories, I encourage you to at least scan and take into consideration the careful scholarship and commentary of the ISD.

COVID19 Disinformation Briefing 2

COVID19 Disinformation Briefing 3

COVID19 Disinformation Briefing 4

OK. You have done very well to read this far. This is already heaps long. So now, I will divide the rest into chapters.

1. The Conservative Culture War - the agenda of the religious right in America and the influence of fundamentalism - how it went beyond warping Christianity (similar to what happened within Islam) to shaping culture and steering politics

2. Russian Trolls - how Russian operatives have exploited ignorance, bigotry, prejudice and divisions within American society for their own de-stabilization aims

3. Conspiracy Theories - fundamentalism has a long history with conspiracy theories but the game has stepped up exponentially with the uncertainty around coronavirus. Just as Islamist fundamentalists exploited insecurity and fear during the Ebola pandemic.

4. Qanon. Not about saving children from evil pedophiles. Who knew?

5. The "Liberate" grassroots (not) movement and the "Boogaloo" - inciting a civil war to create an excuse for the penis-extension-wagglers to kill lots of black & brown people

6. 5G - the agenda behind this classic deflection & disinformation tactic

7.  Going after the 'New Age', alternative health community - the targeting of the alternative left by the alt/far right = Alt/Light: when delusion comes full circle.

8. Out of Shadows 

and

Plandemic 


9. The Trump Administration and the Far Right - how did such a dissolute pervert become the poster child for right-wing morality? They created him in their own image.

10.  Is it actually about catching evil paedophiles? - the latest ploy to tug the heartstrings of any reasonable person of conscience, for a political grist, while projecting away from actual crimes within Christian patriarchy.

Hashtag saveourchildren or hashtag saveourpussygrabberpresident? 

Prominent Conservative Christian Leaders charged with sexual assault. #notjustcatholicpriests #churchtoo

11. One World Order- getting you so worried about global authoritarianism that you won't notice the authoritarianism of right-wing patriarchy. These guys won't save you from patriarchy.

12.  Unmasking the case for MASKS - yet another issue hi-jacked for political grist

13. The White Coat Summit at Capital Hill. Lots of white coats. Lots of agenda. Guess who!!?

14. Coronavirus facts - so far. Plain commonsense truth. Not 'Truther'-truth.

Watch this space. This won't be the last crazy between now the the November elections. They plan to swamp you until you're so confused and punch-drunk, you don't know which way is up.

Finally, to summarize: 

I'm genuinely concerned about the origins of the current Coronavirus denialism trends in popular opinion that we are seeing across social media.  

Particularly in the US, people's minds have been trained in accepting delusion for many decades, in advertising, politics and religion. 

As Christian, I have an insider's view of the fundamentalism that seeped throughout conservative Christianity. 

If you can persuade your followers to accept that women must be subordinated, that contraception is of the devil, that make up or short hair means you're a Jezebel, that you need to hit your children to "train" them or that back masking in rock music is real, it's not that great a leap to:'the earth is flat'; 'Qanon is military intelligence'; 'Trump is a man-of-God';, 'Gates is the Anti-Christ'; and 'Covid is a "plandemic".

I hope more people who value critical thinking will realise that the current conspiracy theorism and Covid denialism we're confronted with now has its roots firmly in the American "Christian" fundamentalist patriarchy movement. (With a little alt-right Second Amendment white supremacy and misogyny in the mix).

They then deliberately targeted the alternative Left and are currently gloating over their successful infiltration of the 'new age', alternative lifestyle community.

The common ground between those two strange bedfellows is the issue of vaccine choice. As a mother of 4 healthy un-vaccinated children, a decision I researched carefully (BEFORE THE INTERNET!), I sympathize.

Moderate people have worthy and valid concerns about government or corporate corruption or monopoly. And these must continue to be addressed.

Civil unrest however, is not the answer. The extremists who are currently deliberately curating dissension are not the path to truth, liberty or freedom, any more than ISIS was. They are far more brutal, blood-thirsty, sexist, power hungry, corrupt and authoritarian than the authorities they're seeking to bring down.

I will continue to resist forced mandatory consumption of monopoly product, neo-liberalist corporate undermining of democracy and environmental rape and destruction. I will keep speaking up for equality and social justice.

However I will not let these important causes become corrupted and co-opted by a pack of violent, blood-lusting bullies, hell-bent on an Animal Farm dissolution of current authority and government structures, so they can impose their personal Caliphate.

In particular, I warn women: these guys will promise the world, but deliver Gilead (reference to The Handmaid's Tale).

There will be those, with valid and important causes, who will think that they will be able to harness the momentum of the far right to further their worthy political goals. I fear this will fail. Instead, the extremists will subvert and hi-jack your causes to push their agenda. I really don't want to see that happen again.

A Love Letter to our American Family

 

(Written in November, 2020)

Dear family,

We care about you.

But we do not understand you.

Still, we want you to know -

No matter what, no matter who wins the election or how different our views might be, we will always love you and care for you and be so grateful for you, the godly lives you’ve lived and the good you have done.

Please know that when we strongly disagree with American politics, this does not lessen our respect and regard for you.

When we say, “we don’t understand you”, that is because we see you being hurt by a socio-political system that you nevertheless seem to defend. That’s confusing to us.

You say, “Biden is too socialistic.” But since leaving American, we have lived in two other developed democratic nations with free education and free health care, paid for by reasonable taxation – and these nations have rule of law, democratic elections and free enterprise capitalism just as much as USA.

Then, there is the Christian fundamentalist doctrine behind the conservative endorsement of Trump’s version of the Republican party.

On a few rare occasions, you have let your guard down enough to let us know that you have really suffered in the patriarchal system that passes for normal society in America.

We see that this system of male rule and toxic masculinity has damaged the fathers and sons in our family.

The senior men of the clan were whipped and beaten as children, a casual brutality that passed for “child discipline”. Then, in the armed forces, they received emotional and even lasting physical injuries as a result of the normalized violence that was encouraged there.

There are psychic wounds caused by the culture of men having to be the “dominator”, expected to be violent, aggressive bullies in order to “win”. The repercussions of these traumas are clear to be seen down through generations.

This toxic culture harms the tender, emotional souls of men, so that the most beautiful parts about us – the parts that make women fall in love with us, the parts that high-light our masculinity all the more – are killed off or snuffed out.

This isn’t uniform across the world. Macho culture does exist in many places, but there are still pockets where being a strong man means being a gentle man, an adventurer, a builder, a creator, an artisan, someone who knows and loves the bush and knows and loves animals, and who genuinely loves, respects and enjoys women and who adores children. A man who weeps openly, laughs a lot, loves music and dancing and sport and can pitch a tent and build a camp fire and surf and rock climb. A good organizer, self-disciplined, well-mannered, and kind – who makes others feel safer, and accepted, just by being there.

Trump was sent by his brutal, abusive father to military school, where he was programmed to be a bully. Biden was not a bully – rather, he was himself bullied because of his speech impediment.

Can you not see that the adult sons of our family are nothing like Trump? You raised us to be upright men with values like Biden. Your own sons are like Biden – well-mannered men who deplore bullying, coarse, toxic masculinity – whether it’s in inter-personal relationships or in matters of foreign policy.

Why would you vote for Trump, when it’s men like Trump your damaged your menfolk? Why would you not vote for Biden when your own sons embody the values Biden models?

So, we do understand why you would continue to support the false doctrine of “male headship” – the idea that the man is the head of the house and the wife must submit. (The Bible makes it clear that leadership in marriage is shared and submission is mutual).

It seems like you are trauma-bonded to systems and doctrines that are harmful to you.

There was the time when you supported a local church leader who was accused of child sexual abuse – because he was a “man of God”. It is hard to fathom that on some level, you might have wondered whether the young victims of this man (and their horrified parents) were telling the truth, and that propping up male authority, no matter what, is wrong – and not the heart of God.

See this list of names – you would recognize many. These are the kinds of men you have always been taught to respect and obey. You have been taught that you cannot criticize them or speak against them … no matter what they do. This “touch not the Lord’s anointed” idea of prioritizing the rights of men over the rights of their victims has caused sexual assault and pedophilia to be rampant throughout the leadership of the evangelical church, no less than in the Catholic church.

The lop-sided teaching in the evangelical church, as right-wing fundamentalists harnessed Christianity for their “culture war” (really about preserving white supremacy, as well as male supremacy) has basically “groomed” and brain-washed much of the church to accept a venal, immoral, corrupt psychopath like Trump.

Now it seems like you can’t speak against or question Trump … no matter what he does.

This didn’t start with Trump or with Coronavirus.

It started with teaching women that they must submit and stay in destructive marriages no matter what, and other doctrines that cause cognitive dissonance – when you have to do something that feels really, really wrong “because it’s Biblical”, or because it’s “God’s will”, or it’s the latest doctrine getting taught by a church that is almost exclusively run by men.

Remember the fundamentalist church we attended with you? The women had to wear doilies on their heads. They preached that men got to be in charge and women had to submit. They taught an authority hierarchy of “God – Pastor – Husband – Wife – Children – Pets”. Whatever other problems you might have had with that particular church, I don’t remember if you ever objected because it was so sexist.

If the American church swallowed the false doctrine of male “headship” for all those years, what other delusions might they have swallowed? For decades now, genuine but gullible Christians have been groomed to get them used to disinformation and delusion.

For example, spanking children. You have to totally shut down your instincts and natural inclinations to believe the spanking children is how to show them love and care and how to train them well.

Or another example: climate change denialism. To believe that God is blessing unfettered capitalism when it is causing ecocide takes incredible loopdy-loops of logic. This contributes people to increasingly losing touch with reality.

End-stage capitalism is an immoral disaster of greed and exploitation. But all we hear about is the “evils” of socialism! Meanwhile, the rich get richer and the middle class and poor get more and more marginalized. That is not the Gospel!

Another example is the issue of abortion. Escalating prejudice and aggression against child-bearing women with draconian anti-abortion laws does not “save babies” but actually drives the abortion rates higher. In their bones, surely most women must sense that sexism, porn and rape culture contributes to abortion rates. International example shows that free, legal, rare abortion results in the very lowest abortion rates – 5:1000 in Holland and Switzerland, versus 13 – 27:1000 in USA. Out-lawing abortions completely only drives abortion rates up, as well as increasing suffering for women. Even so, many American Christians believe the pro-life rhetoric and become single issue voters, voting against their intuition.

We not interested in a “pro-life” position that is only for performative self-righteousness. We want a pro-life policy that really does meet the needs of child-bearing women and truly does bring abortions rates down to the lowest possible levels.

The sharpest decline in abortion rates was during Obama’s funded health care days.

When will American humble itself to learn from best international example and evidence?

Or is it more about controlling women, than saving babies?

Christians in America have been misled by domineering men in the conservative church for a long time. This unchallenged religious sexism, and barely concealed racism, has conditioned Christians to accept lies, prejudice and disinformation.

Now we are seeing a church that is blatant in its contempt for women, black and brown people, the poor and immigrants and refugees.

We can understand Christians voting for moderate, centrist parties like the Republican party of old.

What we can’t understand is why anyone would vote for a con-man like Trump or, worse still, the manipulative so-called “Christian” men who created Trump in their own image.

Trump is a corrupt, incompetent con-man who has deluded and deceived a whole nation.

It is like watching all your friends and family trapped in a cult, but the cult is the whole country.

It is disheartening to watch people we thought were Christians, supporting this man, and inadvertently supporting such terrible values of sexism, racism, capitalist excess & greed, and contempt for the poor.

The church has lost its way. It’s unrecognizable as a church that bears the name of Jesus.

We do not want to see the American church become a club for white, male supremacy.

As a white, male, American Christian, I will have nothing to do with this false doctrine and I stand against the hi-jacking of Christianity by these greedy, arrogant and self-serving men.

It is not surprising that many former Republicans are now voting for Biden, or that there are many Republicans who want their moderate, conservative party back.

We are concerned that the escalation and polarization in USA is deliberate, and that it is tactic to implode your democracy.

We know that you are good, decent people of conscience, but we don’t understand how you & so many American friends & colleagues could become so deluded as to think that Trump is anything but a destructive megalomaniac who is dragging your country into fascism, hatred, prejudice and civil war.

What has happened under Trump has caused the nation to become more polarized than I have ever seen it before. The last time I saw photos of frenzied guys forming a caravan of pickup trucks waving flags and breathing out violence was in the Middle East!

The Kingdom of God is NOT the kingdom of this world. It cannot be built through winning a “culture war” or through political machinations, or God forbid, through outright violence.

We are to seek first his Kingdom AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, which is always expressed in God’s justice: caring for the widows, orphans, refugees, the poor, fair wages for workers and integrity in the courts.

My home country now seems like the school cafeteria when it all goes quiet as the kids watch the long hand slowly approach 12 … when the food fight begins. Except this is not a fun food fight. This could end up as total bedlam with people going around shooting each other and destroying themselves. This is utterly ridiculous and has caused the U.S.A. to become the laughing stock of the world. A once powerful and respected nation and now all we can do sit tight and wait for the food fight to begin.

We have tried to share our hearts as honestly as we can. We are praying for you, and we are praying for the USA.

We may not see eye to eye, but I want you to be assured that we do really care about you and we know you are good people with good hearts, and we will never lose sight of that, and we will not let politics come between us.

God bless you and keep you and bring you peace and comfort.

 

 

 

ABSOLUTE PROOF! Western democracy devolves into a pillow fight ...

 

 

When will they ever learn.

We've had MONTHS of mad conspiracy theories about election fraud.

59 lost court cases, because claims you can get away with on social media, and from pulpits, and at the Jericho March and Four Seasons Total Landscaping media events don't work when there's an actual penalty for perjury.

None of this has prevented the My Pillow guy, who even Newsmax pulled the plug on as he ranted incoherently, from concocting 3 hours of irrefutable proof and verifiable data (you get my sarcasm, right) for your viewing pleasure.

It is weird, fantastical and hilarious, but it's also tragically sad, because Christian friends we love, respect and care for - people of high intelligence and people of sincere faith and conscience - but perhaps not always the most media savvy when it comes to disinformation psy-ops and alogorith piracy - have fallen for it all.

So here's a clearing house of all things to do with Mike Lindell's "Absolute Proof", which is absolute bunkum. 

Kari Browning

tSptsoansore

The conspiracy-believing Trump supporters still on Facebook are promoting a new video today that they say proves election fraud.

The video was produced by Mike Lindell, the MyPillow CEO, who still refuses to accept Donald Trump lost the election.

Mike Lindell is the same guy who called for a military coup and was seen holding notes about martial law and the Insurrection Act on January 15.

Even Newsmax, an ultra-conservative news station, cut off Mike Lindell in an interview Tuesday after he was spreading election fraud falsehoods on air.

The best way to deal with the spreading of the misinformation, in my opinion, is to keep hitting them in their wallets.

Yesterday, the voting systems company Smartmatic sued Fox News, and its personalities Maria Bartiromo, Lou Dobbs, and Jeanine Pirro, along with Giuliani and Trump’s legal advisor Sidney Powell, for at least $2.7 billion in damages for lying about Smartmatic machines in their attempt to overturn the election results.

Dominion Voting Systems, an election technology company, has sued the former President's lawyer Rudy Giuliani for defamation.

They are seeking more than $1.3 billion in damages. (They have already warned Mike Lindell that he might be next.)

Twitter has already suspended Lindell's account permanently.

 

MyPillow CEO Lindell’s film not intended to be taken as fact

 

"Before MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell’s documentary aired on the One America News Network, a disclaimer rolled slowly across the screen: 

"The statements and claims expressed in this program are presented at this time as opinions only and are not intended to be taken or interpreted by the viewer as established facts."

The disclaimer cut a sharp contrast with the program’s title: "Absolute Proof."

 

Mike Lindell does something clever, *within the logic of delusion*: He cites as "evidence" specific numbers for the dead voting, "illegal aliens," etc, as if these numbers are agreed-upon fact, & his only intervention is to say that they represent fraud. Of course the dead voting would be fraud. Fortunately, it didn't happen. What Lindell does, though is skip the sourcing. He says, "Look, all agree the dead voted. My thing is that's wrong." So then the viewer can agree or disagree with his second statement. That's a pretty basic con man -- or salesman's -- trick. I don't think Lindell knows he's performing it. He's more like a slime mold than a con man. He simply reacts. This isn't thought; it's like phototropism in a plant. For Lindell, though, Trump is the sun.”

• Election officials in every state have said there was no sign of significant voter fraud during the voting process. 

• The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, called CISA, and its election partners called the 2020 election "the most secure in American history."

• Former Attorney General William Barr said the Justice Department uncovered no evidence of widespread fraud.

• Not one of the more than 60 lawsuits that President Donald Trump and his allies filed in state and federal courts proved that voter fraud affected the election outcome.

Mike Lindell’s Election Fraud Movie ‘Absolute Proof’ Has Absolutely No Proof

I feel like Lindell just really wants to get sued.

Like Fox News.

And Rudy Giuliani.

And Sidney Powell. 

If you can stand it, here's the whole three hour documentary:

Fann picks Trump-allied firm with history of false election statements to audit Maricopa election

Don't want to watch three hours of brain-numbing alterbatuve facts? Here's a summary:

"Anyone watching this should do a profile on Mike Lindell. He is an ex crack addict. His my pillow product was given BBB's lowest rating of F and they removed his BBB accreditation. Lindell and Ben Carsen were both involved in promoting unsubstantiated claims for a bogus covid-19 cure by a company they had a stake in. He and Donald Trump both have the same type of lifetime con man personality. The data and the companies involved in this 2 hr. video have been debunked. It is the same garbage Guiliani and Sidney Powel have been peddling since November. Remember the crazy blonde lady? She appears in the movie. Remember Lindell has made millions selling his pillow made from scrap foam--waste--at premium prices buy one get one free for years. This practice is considered fraudulent. If you bought two of his pillows you might want to avoid this video. It is very seductive propaganda. It even comes with a CENTCOM type global missile style interactive map to show you all the alledged overseas hacking operations. It also comes with the mandatory Military General. Gen. Thomas G Mcinerney. You may remember him for his unproven claims that Russia was involved in the WMD in Iraq before the war. He was neck deep in the WMD lie. He also pushed the theory that Obama's presidency was unconstitutional. He is a crackpot like all the other people in this video."
