"Of all the wild conspiracies he’d discovered on Patriot Party News, the concept of medbeds had initially struck Michael as the most far-fetched, even if it was also among the most popular. Every few days, someone else on the platform shared an illustration of a futuristic-looking chamber, sometimes with a doctored image of Trump superimposed in the foreground. The founder of the site, Armour, sometimes mentioned videos or podcasts about medbeds that had become popular on the far-right corners of Telegram, Discord and Rumble, and Michael clicked on the links, as did millions of others."

Racked by Pain and Enraptured by a Right-Wing Miracle Cure (Published 2024)

With Patriot Party News, Michael Chesebro found a sense of community, and a place where conspiracy theories could become real in the form of the “medbed.”

Does Trump even know what he posted or how it is energizing Q-Anon weirdos who went to believe he is rolling out free Star Trek medical tech next year?

There really is a sucker born every minute. Or in the case of Trumpers, millions who are born every minute.

This combined with Putin and Xi Jiping talking about organ transplants and immortality is really starting to make me nervous. Because I don't see Trump, Putin, or Xi Jiping exiting office in any way other than a coffin.
