She's clearly insane, someone needs to call in a welfare check on her.

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 36 points 3 months ago

The chinese troops one is new on me.

“Tens of thousands of Chinese soldiers are already in Canada and probably Mexico waiting for orders to invade,” she wrote on January 8, 2021.

As married-in Mexican, I'm pretty sure that Chinese soldiers wouldn't last a week in Mexico without getting rolled by the cartels, then dumped in a ditch or chased home lol.

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 22 points 3 months ago

Maybe thats where the cartels are getting all their nice shit lol

[-] takeda@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Oh, I first heard about them from Jon Stewart who was making fun of Dr Phil about it. I was thinking that those Chinese soldiers were just his personal fantasy, and looks like that's its own conspiracy.

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 4 points 3 months ago

Well, I'm not accepting this conspiracy theory of hers, but the cartels get a lot of pharmaceutical precursors from them so it'd be chummier than anyone would like.

She won’t do it herself though, because she’s a complete coward.

She wants plebs to do her jail time for her.

She’s a total clown coward, like fat boy bone-spurred Trump.

I hope no one else is surprised by this. I mean, it’s not like we don’t already know they want full blown fascism. Violence is just means to an end for them. We’re in deep trouble America.

Their glorious leader has gotten away with stochastic terrorism for years. I think that it’s going to be their platform for the foreseeable future.

[-] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Shit’s about to get real.

[-] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Any suggestions on what to do about it?

I think I will sit here stewing in impotent rage and feeling helpless and depressed. That'll show em!

[-] Fapper_McFapper@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Well, instead of sitting there stewing in rage why don’t you go for a walk? I’m sure you’ll feel better after a walk. I’ll even have some milk and cookies waiting for you when you return.

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 26 points 3 months ago

The coup marches on.

North Carolina Republicans will always elect the worst possible candidates.

[-] Mastengwe@lemm.ee 9 points 3 months ago

~~North Carolina~~ Republicans will always elect the worst possible candidates.

FTFY.

[-] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 12 points 3 months ago

Sounds like North Carolina to me.

[-] carl_dungeon@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

So a factory standard GOP member? I don’t understand the surprise.

[-] Dkarma@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

The surprise is no one called the FBI yet on this nut

[-] autotldr@lemmings.world 8 points 3 months ago

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The Republican nominee for superintendent overseeing North Carolina’s public schools and its $11 billion budget has a history marked by extreme and controversial comments, including sharing baseless conspiracy theories and frequent calls for the execution of prominent Democrats.

Michele Morrow, a conservative activist who last week upset the incumbent Superintendent of Public Instruction in North Carolina’s Republican primary, expressed support in 2020 for the televised execution of former President Barack Obama and suggested killing then-President-elect Joe Biden.

In other comments on social media between 2019 and 2021 reviewed by CNN’s KFile, Morrow made disturbing suggestions about executing prominent Democrats for treason, including Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, North Carolina Gov.

“I prefer a Pay Per View of him in front of the firing squad,” she wrote in a tweet from May 2020, responding to a user sharing a conspiracy theory who suggested sending Obama to prison at Guantanamo Bay.

Morrow, a registered nurse and grassroots activist who homeschooled her children, ran on a platform of supporting parental rights and opposing critical race theory.

In other comments, Morrow repeatedly shared the false claim that Obama was Muslim, called Islam evil, and expressed belief in a conspiracy theory that tens of thousands of Chinese troops were stationed in Canada to invade the United States to help Joe Biden become president.
