Conspiracy Theories and Far-Right Disinformation

Sun Aug 21, 2005 at 09:31:54 PM PDT

The rabbit hole goes much deeper than you would ever believe. Or so the conspiracy theorists of the world would have you believe. But dig behind the scenes of the conspiracy crowd, and you'll find another conspiracy.

The Beginning


Back in June, an entry on The Huffington Post by Jim Lampley caught my attention one Sunday morning. Lampley linked to a story from TBRNews.org that stated there were thousands more US troops killed than was being reported by the Pentagon. Supposedly, they had secret documents showing this to be true.


The story didn't sit right with me, so I started looking through the comments to see if anyone else found it hard to believe. Sure enough, someone quickly had noted that TBRNews originated from a site that had neo-nazi, Holocaust denying roots.

Souter's Eminent Domain Comeuppance

Tue Jun 28, 2005 at 06:28:16 PM PDT

Oh, this is rich. The Kelo v. New London case is coming back to bite David Souter in the a**. Best thing libertarians have ever done. The fact that Souter has a house in New Hampshire, adoptive home of the "Free State Project", makes it all possible.

Press Release:
Weare, New Hampshire (PRWEB) Could a hotel be built on the land owned by Supreme Court Justice David H. Souter? A new ruling by the Supreme Court which was supported by Justice Souter himself itself might allow it. A private developer is seeking to use this very law to build a hotel on Souter's land.

[snip]
On Monday June 27, Logan Darrow Clements, faxed a request to Chip Meany the code enforcement officer of the Towne of Weare, New Hampshire seeking to start the application process to build a hotel on 34 Cilley Hill Road. This is the present location of Mr. Souter's home.
