"Of Course, It Was A Federal Operation In Order To Implement Gun Control"
Lauren Witzke should probably be in a psych ward on a Thorazine drip
One of the sad aspects of the world we live in is that everything, no matter how horrific, is suspect. Nothing is taken at face value. There are ALWAYS hidden secret agendas at work, and only a plugged-in few truly understand the malevolent forces at work.
The latest source of conspiracy theories is the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX. To most of us, it was an unspeakably horrific tragedy in which 19 students and two teachers were slaughtered by a madman wielding an AR-15.
To Lauren Witzke, though, there was SO much more behind it.
Witzke—a Russia-loving white nationalist and conspiracy theorist who was the Delaware Republican Party’s nominee for the U.S. Senate in 2020—claimed that the recent mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, in which 21 teachers and children were killed was “a federal operation” to prevent Hispanic voters from supporting Republican candidates in the midterm elections.
During Tuesday’s “CrossTalk News” program, Witzke and her bigoted and racist co-host Edward Szall discussed the mass shooting in Uvalde, with Witzke declaring that it had been “organized and operated” by the government.
Organized and operated by the federal government- because Joe Biden and his evil, Left-wing cabal are so bent on seizing and consolidating power that they’d do anything, even kill children, to achieve their desired end.
Methinks mayhaps Ms. Witzke doth projecteth overmuch, no?
“So, of course I think about the conspiracy behind all of it,” Witzke said. “What do they gain from this, besides the gun control push? Hispanics are starting to vote Republican and conservative. They specifically targeted a school in an area that is majority Hispanic—it’s essentially Mexico is what it is—and they went specifically for a Hispanic district. Murdered 19 [children]. Of course, if this was a false flag or [the shooter] was an MKUltra, there was a reason behind this because they’re watching as the Hispanics are starting to lean more conservative.”
Witzke is projecting in that she’s accusing Democrats of the sort of things the GOP would consider long before Democrats. Trying to get enough Democrats together to carry out such a plot would be like herding cats; it wouldn’t happen.
Then again, Lauren Witzke sounds like someone who’s been off her Thorazine drip a wee bit too long. The crazy is strong in this one, and she deflects it by going after Democrats.
“These people are crazy,” she continued. “The midterms are coming up, and there’s no limit to how far they’ll go. There’s no limit to how far they’ll go to change the public narrative on things.
Yeah, someone’s crazy, but it’s not who she thinks it is. Perhaps it’s just that she’s utterly devoid of self-awareness and entirely consumed by the Dunning-Kruger Effect. She’s far too intellectually bereft to have any clue as to just how intellectually vacant she is.
She’s convinced that she’s dialed in when she hasn’t a clue. If it sounds as if she’s making this up as she goes, it may be because she is. Witzke’s the same person who blamed the federal government for creating deadly tornadoes, saying
The US government has a fetish for terrorizing their own citizens.
And she has a fetish for blaming the US government for fantastical crimes that have no basis in reality.
Advantage, US government.
Is it possible for one woman to be so thorough cynical, ignorant, and cocksure? Evidently so, and she’s pretty proud of herself, though it’s completely unjustified.
Unsurprisingly, there’s more to Witzke than just a ridiculous conspiracy theory about the mass shooting in Uvalde, TX. She’s also an unapologetic White nationalist. Quelle surprise, non?
When white nationalist Lauren Witzke, who was the GOP nominee for the U.S. Senate in Delaware in 2020, appeared on a YouTube program called “No White Guilt” last October, she assured the hosts that her boss, far-right broadcaster Stew Peters, shared her concerns that an “anti-white system” is allowing her white heritage to be destroyed by “animals.”
“Stew gets it,” Witzke said. “He gets the agenda.”
And her views on COVID-19 are…well, somewhat unconventional.
I think I’ll let that one speak for itself.
And her love for Russian President Vladimir Putin borders on treasonous, but the 1st Amendment’s a beautiful thing, isn’t it?
Yes, it most certainly is.
One of the great things about America is that we tolerate someone who hates it, even though she’s spewing borderline treason. Of course, no rational person could take anything Witzke says as having any logical meaning or importance. It’s gibberish.
If she identifies more with Putin’s “Christian” values, I hear Moscow’s beautiful this time of year. But, then again, If Vladimir Putin’s a Christian, I’m the Queen of Denmark. And Witzke’s Christianity has as much relation to the Gospel of Jesus Christ as I do to Tom Brady.
I often wonder if people like Witzke believe what they’re saying for public consumption or doing it because they know it’s what fills their bank account. Is being that cynical and hypocritical who they are or merely a lucrative career move?
How could someone honestly believe that Vladimir Putin’s Russia is a “Christian nationalist nation?” Is that she that blind to the truth? Is she taking money from Russia? Or is she just so dense that she can’t understand that what she thinks is happening isn’t what’s happening?
How could someone so clearly benefiting from White privilege honestly believe herself to be the victim of anti-White racism? As if the rest of the world is somehow seeking to slap her and the rest of the White race down and keep them down. The fact that Whites control the majority of economic and political power in this country is somehow lost on her.
She also hasn’t realized that it’s impossible to be part of an oppressed majority. Yet Ms. Witzke is doing her level best to live in a self-created world in which that’s her reality.
It’s difficult to know what drives her. It can’t be a commitment to objective reality, because even a cursory examination of that reality would show her that she’s objectively wrong. Ms. Witzke lives in a world in which she’s a victim, the world is arrayed against her, and those who don’t think like her aren’t just the enemy but deserve to be destroyed.
To believe that the federal government would deliberately massacre 19 children and two teachers as a way to deflect Hispanics from voting Conservatives requires a degree of cynicism and suspension of disbelief I can’t fathom. To seriously advance such a conspiracy theory with no supporting evidence is typical of the sort of madness gripping the extreme Far-Right these days. They claim to be “Christians,” but they couldn’t lead Christ-like lives if someone handed them Billy Graham and a New Testament.
They claim to be “Patriots,” but they love Vladimir Putin’s Russia far more than America because they hate Joe Biden just that much. They’d sooner see America under Biden fail so they could seize power and begin to work on making that seizure permanent by destroying our democracy.
They celebrate President Biden’s “failures,” because everything they see going south brings them closer- at least in their minds- to being back in power. They don’t want to see America succeed, and they don’t want to be part of the solution. They’d happily burn the country to the ground if it meant they’d be in charge once the fire burns out.
Until then, Lauren Witzke will be proudly pouring gasoline on the fire in the service of Vladimir Putin Christian Nationalist ideals.
