People are burning down cell phone towers because they think the towers are spreading the coronavirus.

Ah Limeyland, seems to love to be in a “hold my beer” moment with the deplorable side of Murka.

Already a classic:

Astonishing. Here’s another Business Insider article going through the timeline and origins of this 5G theory thing.

There is that much disinformation about 5G, it’s towers, etc...

It’s the celeb rities that are making it worse, either supporting or forwarding other peoples theories.

The range of celebrities pushing 5G conspiracy theories is astounding. From reality TV stars such as Calum Best to A-list Hollywood names such as Woody Harrelson , the theory has infiltrated every level and type of celebrity culture. Professional boxer Amir Khan yesterday went on Instagram to state that coronavirus was man-made and “put there... while they test 5G” and Dancing On Ice judge Jason Gardiner posted several tweets last week that encouraged followers to sign petitions halting the roll-out of 5G. The outrage particularly began to pick up on Thursday (2 April) as reports of people torching cell towers began circulating. The same day, Made In Chelsea star Lucy Watson tweeted “fuck 5G” and has yet to take down her post.

Let me introduce you to Frank (AKA Flat Earth Frank). He and I make an incredible graphics team, he just happens to think we never landed on the moon, the Earth is flat, 5G..... basically most conspiracy theories you can think of. Oh and he somehow rationalizes this with god and aliens. So we made him a tinfoil hat and he wore it briefly. They call me his handler, in a way he helps keep me employed without having to deal with other people, he an I get along well and he is a really nice guy but a lot of people won’t work with him. He likes to annoy people for fun, but not me, he knows he needs me and he is kind of afraid of me. He believes in all the government stuff too and he knows I was an intel officer so he thinks we used to whack a lot of people. He is a great graphics applicator, but we don’t have to worry about him torching things, he is too afraid of the FBI and CIA. 

Doing our thing:

I know a few people with whom I get along fabulously as long as certain subjects don’t come up. I just wish they weren’t such kooks. Also, I could never work up in the air like that. The idea interests me, but I can’t do heights.

I had a teacher in high school that had this posted on her wall: “Ignorance can be fixed  but stupid is forever.” I was initially offended by it, but later came to appreciate the wisdom in that statement. I suppose I was only ignorant in the beginning . :)

Oh I talk to him about it, it’s like having my own private Art Bell Coast to Coast AM with me. But if we have to go do smaller jobs on a show and I see him working with people who don’t know him well, I throw a Frank Grenade and ask him a question as I pass by and then leave, he always just turns to the people and keeps going haha. This is how I ensure we stay a team.

Apart from many other efforts, I think this guy did his part:

It does seem like there is a big problem with a percentage of the population, even more so since Trump has been around. The internet sure has not helped in some ways .
