On Tin Foil Hats & Conspiracy Theorists

 

As I scroll through Powerline's Week in Pictures presentations on Saturday mornings, I'm on the look out for the one that tweaks my interest as a turn around.  This time, it was the idea of those regarded and labeled by the MSM as deniers and conspiracy theorists in tin foil hats actually being the ones who were in tune with reality and tracking with truth all along.  And that led to the notion of a special silver edition MAGA hat (the images of which were originally presented as mockery) being issued as fitting swag.  

"All you media clowns and goons and nuts, who told me I was the crazy conspiracy theorist, tell me we live in a free country where three of the largest social media platforms, that are the new public space we can talk in, when an opinion guy like me cannot speak on these platforms, or is restricted from doing so, or banned in the YouTube, shadow banned in the case of Twitter. Tell me again how we live in a free country. You’re the fourth estate. You’re supposed to protect this stuff. You guys have a constitutional carve out, the freedom of the press. It’s literally written in the constitution. And what do you do? You ignored this story the entire time. It’s the biggest story of our time. The mass shadow banning of conservatives going on in this country by this big tech consortium.”"   Dan Bongino
