Thanks for that. It is long but worth wading through. The funding of these far-right "disruptors" is the key to clarifying their agenda.

I used to know one of the VFF principals and there is no way in the world she would have the intelligence to know how she is being exploited as a figurehead.

How quickly idiocy spreads, it seems prevalent on some forums which helps explain it to some extent.
Interesting reading, cheers for that.

Having successfully avoided the McBishop so far, I'm fairly sure I can manage to continue doing so.

That, & the grandkids might take me out & shoot me, if I got involved with that lot...

On the subject of the nutty right, that complete nutter, Alex Jones has been ordered to pay a victim's parents over 4 million. Excellent result.

"A Texas jury awarded the parents of one of the victims of the deadly shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School over $4 million in the damages trial of "Infowars" host Alex Jones. The conspiracy theorist and far-right broadcaster had earlier been found liable for defamation in a default judgment issued by District Judge Maya Guerra Gamble over his false claims the 2012 shooting was "a hoax" in repeated comments over the past decade.

Neil Heslin and Scarlett Lewis, whose 6-year-old son Jesse was one of 20 children and six adults killed during the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, on Dec. 14, 2012, sued Jones and his media company, Free Speech Systems, in 2018. The couple originally sought at least $150 million in compensatory damages. Jurors voted first to determine how much of that Jones should be ordered to pay, and arrived at over $4 million. "

Yeah, I saw that - not just CHCH either, they're trying it on in a few places. I don't much like their chances.

With luck, given time they'll just fade away into non existence.

We need to be vigilant about voting this time round. And watch out for fake wigs and smarmy smiles.
