There’s no shortage of stupid and/or evil MFers taking advantage of the L.A. fires to spew their crap. Naomi Wolf is at the forefront of conspiracy-mongering, with Twitter posts/reposts dragging in everything from geoengineering with aluminum to planned devastation involving the WEF to somehow pave the way for the 2028 Olympics. Oh, and the fires are a prelude to a Mexican invasion and takeover of the U.S., since some of the hundreds of firefighters from Mexico helping contain the disaster are reportedly from the Mexican army. > [@](#): > > ‘Did you say, ‘with others coming from the Mexican army’? Friends, the fire is both a real catastrophe AND a pretext. This is going to be an occupation. It’s even more dire than the time-traveling “nanopatticles” she previously warned us about. ---

Add one more to the list, because apparently she doesn’t know there’s an Ontario in California.

Her Xitt seems to imply that the California National Guard has landed in Canada to support LA law enforcement. Which is even more deranged (if such be possible). ---

> [@OttoDaFe](#): > > Her Xitt seems to imply that the California National Guard has landed in Canada to support LA law enforcement. I think she’s reading it as “the Canada National Guard arrived at the Ontario (Canada) airport to deploy to Los Angeles”. She’s also claiming the fires were caused by bombing and that mood suppressants are being sprayed on the population.

Alas, it has been my experience that martial arts tends to attract the more conservative crowd that is apt to be intolerant of ‘others’. It is not surprising that after spending a lot of time in that space he would have been affected by it. `//i\\` ---
