Plandemic: The video uniting right and left wing nutties.
May 7, 2020, 10:00 AM

So I assume most of you have seen this Plandemic video that has popped up, which is fueled by activist Judy Mikovits. It sprouted on YouTube before being taken down (lol YouTube First Amendment police), but it made its rounds enough as another conspiracy theory about the pandemic and Fauci's sinister actions and anti-vaccines and Nazis.
Yeah, Nazis.
But a further research of Mikovits finds that not only has she had a long-running feud against Fauci before this pandemic started, but she is--wait for it--an anti vaxxer, which has been a hallmark of uniformed leftists in our country for several years now. Mikovits has had some of her work revoked, in fact, because it was found to be false.
We've come full circle. Far-right Trumpies sharing and believing a video orchestrated by a leftist anti-vaxxer drawing a connection to Nazi Germany.
Whoever thought a made-up conspiracy video could unite America?
I was going to link the video but looks like it's been coming down on most sites, and I haven't had enough coffee yet for deep Googling.

I tend to avoid activists videos.

Wait, yeah, I started watching it. Stopped about 1 minute in as I knew it was BS agenda video. You can just tell. It's like spotting Chinese/Russian/Iran/etc. propaganda. Left and right do it. It's the audio and the setting and camera work, and the constant videoing of the concerned-looking interviewer that give it away.
When you start out a video that way, I will stop watching. Doesn't matter what the person has to say.

What is sad is there are actually some valid science points. But they are lost by proximity to the flaky conspiracy woo crowd.

Anti-vaxx is definitely not a "leftist" thing

More like soccer mom Democrats who are into essential oils. Mikovits has no obvious left-wing political opinions that I'm aware of.

people who would call themselves conservative. It's like a freedom thing, government can't make me, etc. But it's also laden with conspiracy thinking.

What I've seen from the anti-vax movement has appeared to be predominantly leftist, but yes, certainly not all. Believing they cause autism has appeared to be rather left-leaning.

Interesting, as a right wing person, I always thought the anti-vaxxer thing was a right wing thing. I never really paid much attention to it. Gonna have to read into it a bit more

I will and not worry a bit, other than hoping it protects from Coronavirus.

The video was banned by YouTube after over 12 million views. Yet YouTube still has plenty of Bigfoot and UFO videos, they didn’t remove any of those. The vaccine video has popped back up dozens of times only to be removed again and again. So why would YouTube be hunting down and banning this video while content for every other conspiracy is left alone?

I told them I can’t concentrate on the message when the interviewer is giving blue steel every time they cut to him.
