If the tables were flipped, the media would have already coined and propagated a more clever permutation of the denigration "Stager" and ruthlessly mocked conservatives into hiding with it.

Read The Sumter Gambit by Robert Spencer. Left has been at war with right since the 1960s. Right is just realizing it. ...little late....left got their Generals, Admirals, FBI/CIA and all the other Senior executive positions staffed with leftists. Remember when Obama fired like 170 military officers - O-5 and above? That actually made news a little. Well this was done in every govt agency since to secure the leftist/commie take over when SHTF.

The left fell for the greatest conspiracy of all, that the church and men hate women and conspire to oppress them.

Well you lost me because if you go back as far as 1964, the inaugural year of conspiracy theory, you'll have to name some theories so I can orient myself, because my memory is at that point it was often the reverse; maybe it was north vs south vis a vis civil rights, or esp. the burgeoning war in Vietnam for opposition to which many of the left were characterized as Communists, remember. Exactly who are the normal Americans at this point of deliberate disorientation is a tough call. It's a full 360 degree wrap from which it's gonna take more than hopium and good intentions to extricate. My mantra at this point is trust no one. Paranoia; my canary!

To be fair, both sides indulge in conspiracy theories. The Q brigade is also coming out with a lot of crazy stuff, including the one about it all being a brilliant Trump 4D chess set-up. I'll stick with the biggest conspiracy theory of them all: sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Talking of crazy conspiracies from our side, have a look at this blog for a good example of where this madness leads:

I was just about to go on my balcony and smoke a cigar, Ray. Maybe now I won't. :)
