false claim is the subject of a new far right documentary by a bounty hunter turned podcasts host and just as baseless as the other vaccine conspiracies you ve heard from the beginning of the pandemic except this one is really for a while stew peters and his allies have been talking about this new documentary stew has called watch the water which incidentally is a qanon catchphrase as well. so that s kind of the milieu we re working in. so watch the water comes out and one of these doctors, zell enko, dr. zell enko, who s big into hydroxychloroquine was like they tried to murder the star of this documentary, this guy named dr. artis. so finally this documentary comes out last night. i obviously queued it up instantly in 4k. i m sitting down to watch it. and it turns out it s just stew peters interviewing this guy, this doctor, who says
disinformation ecosystem, as the anti-vaxxers, people who go out and listen to rfk jr. spout all of this nonsense comparing vaccine mandates to the holocaust. yeah. i think at this point the political leaders have completely lost control of the asylum. the inmates are in charge. the influencers and the conspiracy theoryists have whipped up what is now the republican base with crt conspiracies, vaccine conspiracies, election fraud conspiracies, you name it, there s a whole bunch of them. and you see that the grass roots level of these people are driving the politicians, not the other way around. what really illustrated that was when donald trump in his rally in georgia and texas advocated for taking the vaccine, and he got huge backlash, not just from the crowd they booed him.
conspiracies, vaccine conspiracies, election fraud conspiracies. you name it, there s a whole bunch of them. and you see that the grassroots level of these people are driving the politicians, not the other way around. what really illustrated that was when donald trump, in his rally in georgia and texas, advocated for taking the vaccine, and he got huge backlash not just from the crowd that was present. they booed him. but the next day. yeah. so notice his third rally in arizona last week. he never mentioned the vaccine. that shows you the base is controlling him now, not the other way around. and they re controlling the party, and they re putting this democracy on a collision course with god knows what. i mean that is what we re talking about night after night after night on this program. ron filipkowski, you ve been isolating these snippets and getting them out to the public. thanks very much for what you do. we appreciate it. thanks for coming on tonight. thank you very much,
