"Mensch is the co-founder of Heat Street, a conservative website ran by News Corp, a former member of the UK Parliament, and a frequent guest on MSNBC. She also propagates unfounded conspiracy theories in blog posts and tweets. Just about all of Mensch’s theories have centered around Russian President Vladimir Putin and alleged operations by his government to undermine the American political system. The former British MP moved on from both writing and managing Heat Street in January reportedly due to her tweets, and she’s now instead vice president of creative and strategy for News Corp. In the wake of her departure, however, Mensch launched a blog titled “Patribotics,” in which she flushes out her unfounded conspiracy theories in long stories instead of short tweets." So this is a Conservative who publishes a blog of her conspiracy theories. Had never heard of it until now. OF COURSE you have. :rolleyes: More fake news, zero credibility on this one, as usual. We’re going to have to file you with Adaher on the accuracy scale. ---

Well, Louise Mensch has about 12K twitter followers. That is _a lot_. I mean, a lot for any given person, at least. And, you know, it is a solid majority of the people who do not like TrÎźmp. ---

@ **Okra** No, you’re hilarious. Half the political jokes on Sickipedia (British) involve Mensch. ������ Since you’re up for believing anything, I’ll tell you a secret. They called Joe DiMaggio was called the Yankee Clipper because he cut his teammates’ hair. Bet your friends on it. ---

> [@running\_coach](#): > > And you thought she was a lefty. To be fair, the US Republican Party is much further to the right on the political spectrum than the British Conservative Party. So it wouldn’t be that surprising that a US Republican supporter would confuse a British Conservative with being a librul, if they listened to what they had to say. ---

> [@Chimera](#): > > You’re fucking idiot who cites BLOGS no one has ever heard of as evidence that “leftists” believe shit. Nah. Lots of evidence that “leftists” believe all kinds of crap that turns out to be nothing and will disappoint them to tears later can be found on this board. In this thread, too. It is very entertaining to watch, though. Kushner (and of course, as always, Trump) is doooomed I tell ya! ---

It just means if you want to find the real discussion, you have to scroll past all of the pointless back-and-forth with him.… It’s a hamster wheel that goes nowhere. ---

Yes, and the best example you could come up with is an obscure blog written by a right winger. You had the ability to cherry pick whatever example you wanted. It was a gimmie, and you still managed to blow it. ---
