I watched the launch on a YouTube stream, and was stunned when scores of commenters on the stream claimed it was all fake.
Wait...tens of thousands of people in Florida were watching within a few dozen miles of the launch. Were they fooled by Special Effects? Or paid by mysterious conspirators to claim they'd watched a massive rocket launch?
Many commenters claimed it was done with "AI"--which could be done one video feeds but not for those watching live.
The leftist critics claimed the "alleged" launch was a cunning distraction from their claim that "the U.S. is losing the war in Iran--BADLY!" (That's an actual quote from a shithead Democrat senator.) Or to distract from their claim that planet’s magnetic field is dying, or from alleged deadly new germs discovered buried in Antarctica, or from the Epstein files, or...something.
Some commenters even named a specific Hollywood studio as the real stage of the mission. Made the claim totally believable, eh?
All the above strikes me as troubling: More and more Americans are believing obviously absurd Narratives instead of accepting obvious facts--and I think that's a really bad sign.
Of course we've always had a lunatic fringe--folks who deny things that have massive proof, simply because denial gives them a political advantage. For example, the WW2 Nazi concentration camps killed and cremated millions. Once this became widely known, more people began to sympathize with the Jews. Antisemites were eager to counter that, so began denying the Holocaust actually happened.
If your grandfather was with the U.S. Army in Germany at the end of the war and personally saw the starving prisoners, the piles of shoes, the tons of ashes, professional liars will claim that he was either lying, or repeating a Narrative told by an agent, or that he'd been shown an expensive, elaborate hoax.
If you try to counter that thousands of American soldiers saw the horrors of the death camps, or that Life Magazine ran pages of photos, the saboteurs counter that Life was in on the fake. The saboteurs don't care that there's no rational motive. That missing piece simply doesn't occur to the credulous--the gullible.
Same for the series of successful moon landings by Americans beginning in July of 1969 and continuing with five more landings over 3.5 years.
For young Americans: American men are the only humans to have EVER walked on the moon. In the 57 years since we did it, no humans from any other country have been there. And we did it 57 years ago..and not just once but SIX times.
It only took the communist/leftist saboteurs a few years to realize they could get morons to believe it never happened, by concocting the stunning claim that all six of the American moon landings were fake.
Now think: Who benefits from getting Americans--and citizens of other nations--to believe such a claim?
Sure: communists. Several objectives: Most obvious is to make Americans believe their government would do anything, spend hundreds of millions on an elaborate fake, to make the U.S. seem more powerful. And the secondary goal is to make people all over the world believe the beacon of freedom and free markets isn't as good as they make people believe--which makes communism seem more attractive by comparison. Hmmm...
I'm a total cynic and skeptic, and well understand that governments lie--some rarely, others routinely. And most adults have heard Hitler's maxim that if you tell a really big lie, people are MORE likely to believe it because it's so brazen that they think no one would be that bold, eh?
Example: the Chyna virus. Fauci and bribem absolutely assured Americans that a harmless bat virus could not possibly have been modified in a Wuhan lab to make it lethal to humans. . Yet we have the genetic code that shows it was unquestionably modified.
The saboteurs quickly countered that it was modified by the U.S. as part of a bio-warfare program.
Except I've read with my own eyes a paper given at an international conference in 2015, in which the female "bat lady" in charge of the Wuhan lab reported on their success in inserting a single gene into a bat coronavirus. The last page of that paper thanked the U.S. NIH--specifically Fauci and his NIAID division--for funding the research.
This was in 2015, five years before the Chyna virus hit the world. Yet Fauci has never been charged with lying to everyone. Brazen, eh?
People are right to distrust authority. Years of media lies, government coverups, Narratives and stolen elections have conditioned people to assume they are being misled at least part of the time. And when people feel lied to enough, they become cynical, and more likely to believe the most outrageous lies as a counter to what they understandably feel are lies by the Establishment.
The result is that lots of Americans deny the most basic facts, like whether the Earth is spherical. And the Holocaust, and the six American moon landings. They believe the World Trade Center was demolished by planted charges rather than by hijacked jetliners full of jet fuel.
"Wait...what about the video from hundreds of pedestrian cell phones showing at least the second jet crashing into one of the towers?" Easy: doze wuz all faked! Computer graphics made to look like cell phone vids!
The sowers of lies and doubt have an answer for everything, no matter how absurd.
Way too many Americans believe vapor trails--condensed from cooling the water vapor produced by jet engines flying in -50 degree air--are really "chem-trails"--government planes spraying mysterious chemicals on helpless citizens below! No idea what those mysterious chemicals might be, but it doesn't matter, eh?
And finally, too many believe the huge rocket NASA and the Media claim was just launched from the Cape was an elaborate, staged fake.
And the gullible, credulous morons are allowed to vote, and there are millions of 'em.
