If you\u2019re tired of waking up every damn morning to a new conspiracy theory, you\u2019re in good company.\u00a0 For awhile these things amused me, but after a few years and a thousand bogus theories, the joke is stale even if the theories are new.\u00a0 Take the latest: egg prices are the result of a collaboration between the chicken feed companies and the chicken farmers.\u00a0 I suspect Doc Fauci has something to do with it and possibly the Chinese which might explain the egg shaped \u2018observation\u2019 balloon that more than likely was spewing chem-trails that sterilized hens below.\u00a0 Or at least aborted the eggs.\u00a0 Or \u2026 well, add your own and post it on whatever social media platform you\u2019ve dedicated yourself to.<\/p>\n
People must be bored to death, all I can figure, to sit around dreaming up this stuff out of thin air.\u00a0 The folks who re-post and re-tweet, I guess it\u2019s like gossip, who cares if it\u2019s true, better to spread the rumor that Ginny Randolph\u2019s kid impregnated the Simpson girl.\u00a0 There\u2019s a meanness to these conspiracies, a willingness to think the absolute worst about one another.\u00a0 Well, everyone else anyway.\u00a0 And a deep seated paranoia that someone or some company or some politician or some government is pulling all the strings that make life miserable for the rest of us.\u00a0 The Wizard of Oz is behind the curtain, chuckling maniacally as he pulls the wool over our incredibly gullible eyes.\u00a0 And \u2026 he\u2019s a mean sonofabitch!<\/p>\n
It may well be that somewhere in a bunker beneath Belarus or up in an attic over in Hoboken, some yahoo spews this stuff out 24\/7 for his or her own amusement, drops it on the internet as clickbait and waits to see what goes viral or not.\u00a0 They may even be making money off this, advertisers always happy to help if it will sell their products.\u00a0 I suspect the chicken feed company might be writing these tweets themselves, pumping up their feed price.\u00a0 Chicken feed, chicken shit, it\u2019s all the same now\u2026.<\/p>\n
