People must find a scapegoat for all their woes; the Jews are often a preferred choice. Of course, the lockdowns were needed to prevent the spread, but because some leaders were so fucking slow to react, what could have likely been a short period turned into almost a year; a downside to the increased globalization of the world.

many of them claim there were shadowy conspiracies going on while everyone was at home. It varies from Jews, Chinese, Deep State, and anyone else they don't like. Plenty of racist idiots blame Indians for the delta variant as if it has something to do with race.

Replacement theory baffles me how anyone thinks Jews want to replace them. But then we have Tucker on fox news talking about the shadowy plot to replace white Americans with nonwhites and how Soros is funding it somehow with involvement of other Jewish billionaires.

I am shocked! Oh wait, no I am not! It just further demonstrates how ignorant some, too many IMO, are when it comes to science.

The Replacement Theory is an oldie. Many think it means Jews literally "replacing" the poor, put upon white Christians. What it really means is that Jews are orchestrating a movement, in the shadows of course, to "replace" good, Gawd-a'fearing white folk, with blacks, browns, and every other hue by "manipulating" immigration, social programs, and increasing places where minorities, traditionally shut out, would be allowed access. It was the reason the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh was targeted.
