There was this girl at my office who I thought was kind of nice and I think she thought I was kind of nice too. Then one day she said something totally out of the blue about how the Jews control everything. Last time I ever l spoke to her unless it was strictly professional.
This reminds me of the episode of Nathan For You where he records a first date that a couple go on and it just looks like a cute bowling date and then at the end of the episode while the credits roll he reveals the audio of the date and that the girl was going off about 9/11 conspiracy theories the whole time.
Now I want to see this episode.
They even control a space laser and shoot it at innocent flies. This is how fireflies are created.
I really thought this was a joke conspiracy theory until I learned people actually believe in Jews controlling everything.
Add that to the list of "things right-wingers are irrationally afraid of, but actually sound kind of awesome"
(I mean the fireflies thing, not the Jews controlling everything thing)
I admit, I made the fireflies up this morning.
I hardly can fathom the fear and disinformation bubble you must be in that you actually believe this nonsense. I mean, I come from the country of conspiracy theories (Germans are actually quite good at inventing this), and I love a good story to laugh about.
Wait, what?
Was this at a commercial construction and renovation company in Georgia?
“this girl”?
