Among the porn, the Q stuff, the audit nonsense, remember Ron Watkins tried to goad Trump into conducting a military coup. This was at a time Trump was retweeting Watkins and seemed to be listening to him.
Watkins' message to Trump was designed to appeal to his egomania: a coup will immortalise you in history like Julius Caesar, make you famous for millennia. Also, you and your family might have to answer for crimes if you don't.
Ultimately, Trump was too dumb, and surrounded by people who were too dumb, to pull off a coup.
Remember, though, that Watkins was one of those people actively urging Trump to overthrow the Constitution of the US and establish military rule. Now he's running for Congress.

Sexual assault is real and dangerous, but the claim that loads women being *injected* with some kind of drug in clubs, and then just ignored by the attacker afterwards who doesn't attempt to touch them further, has the smell of a moral panic.
Of course, massive amounts of drink spiking happens, and most of it is with alcohol. If you ever bought someone a double vodka and coke when they asked for a single, and didn't tell them, you've spiked a drink.
Drink spiking with sedatives or inhibition-relaxing drugs happens, but it's thankfully rare. This 2005 study found those drugs used in only 2% of self-reported spiking cases over a 3-year period.

Europa is a very long 'documentary' that claims the Jews and Communists ganged up against innocent Nazi Germany as part of their evil plans to establish Israel and mix the races, and that Hitler was a good guy. It's hardcore neo-Nazi propaganda.
Europa is HEAVILY promoted by neo-Nazis in the comments sections of QAnon channels, in an attempt to draw QAnon believers into outright neo-Nazism. It seems to work, despite it being crazy long and boring.
John Sabal, aka "QAnon John", posted about Europa, not including the link but telling people to message him for it. He wasn't naively sharing content he hadn't watched. He was carefully promoting neo-Nazi pro-Hitler Holocaust denial material. Image

It's all so weird. I get that Trump name=$$$ but at this point it's just creepily implying Trump's still running the country in order to part idiots from their money.
Trump supporters are getting texts like this below from the NRCC:

"You failed the loyalty test. Trump's friends offered 9x match for 9 top Patriots & you wasted it. One last chance. Act now"
The link above goes to a WinRed site where you can donate to "get Trump to run for President". The whole GOP fundraising strategy is Trump, bring back Trump and why don't you support Trump enough.

Israel saw VERY bad outcomes for pregnant women with Covid as early as January. The UK didn't —or if it did, it wasn't reported.
In Israel, pregnant women were made a risk group and given early access to the vaccine. For most of 2021, the UK didn't even *recommend* vaccines to pregnant women.
Israel first noted bad outcomes for pregnant women during the Alpha wave. There was a couple of months where once or twice a week, a woman or her foetus died of Covid, usually in the third trimester.

What does 'compel' mean in this EO? Is "You don't have to get a vaccine but I'm firing anyone who's unvaccinated" compelling vaccination? Is "Entry to my shop is for vaccinated people only!" compelling vaccination? Is "free Crispy Cremes for vaccinated people"?
Texas legislation seems to use the term 'compel' pretty narrowly and it's not clear to me that any of my examples above count as compulsion. Coercion, inducement or consequences, sure. But are they compulsion? In other words, does this EO even do anything?
