Trump’s New Streaming Service Fact+ Is a Conspiracy Theorist’s Dream Come True

Nobody would fault you for not figuring out that Donald Trump’s “know-how” firm, Trump Media and Know-how Group, has a streaming service. However now that you simply do know that, aren’t you curious what’s on it? Fortunate for you, a recent report from Talking Points Memo dug into the content material over on Fact+ and it’s each bit as batshit as you have been in all probability imaging.

Fact+ seems to be large on two issues: faith and conspiracy theories. That looks like it’s proper according to the MAGA crowd’s hobbies, however these conspiracies appear to be much less of the “Trump had the election stolen from him” selection and extra of the “Jesus Christ was a secret alien” type. No, actually.

Per TPM, one of many movies on the platform known as “Conspiracy Chronicles,” and it throws some unbelievable claims on the market, together with the chance that Jesus, Buddha, and Krishna have been all from a unique planet. It additionally apparently claims that the Moon is “hollowed out” and serves as a base for aliens. Are they the identical aliens sending us our most revered spiritual figures? Onerous to say. What is evident, per the movie, is that the US authorities has been masking all of this up. Fortunately, the man who runs the streaming service spewing these theories now has the facility to debrief all that info! Absolutely he’ll, proper?

It’s solely one among many movies on the platform which might be all in on out-there claims. One other, titled “Lizard Folks: Rulers of Time and Area,” claims that there’s a race of lizard-like aliens who created people and developed spiritual techniques to regulate them. Frankly, it’s kinda wild how shut this stuff get to acknowledging some type of actuality (organized religion getting used as a means of control, as an example) solely to swerve and blame it on aliens as a substitute of like, individuals who want power and wealth. There are precise explanations for this stuff, however the one means for them to be digestible to a sure crowd is for these explanations to have some kind of otherworldiness sprinkled on prime.

Now, it will be honest to say that each streaming service has its fair proportion of bonkers titles that find yourself out there by wide-reaching rights offers, and nobody is definitely watching them. And there are probably only a few individuals watching Fact+ basically. However those that do are apparently consuming up these conspiracies. TPM reported that the “Lizard Folks” film was within the prime 10 on the platform this week.

That programming doesn’t precisely appear according to the “information, Christian content material, and family-friendly programming that’s uncancellable by Massive Tech” that Trump’s firm promised when it launched the streaming platform final 12 months. However possibly the Bible had extra to say about serpents than simply that snake within the Backyard of Eden.
