Hoaxology: Man in Fedora and Plaid Suit Says No Evidence in Skripal Case
Even worse than being a shameless Russian shill is wearing a fedora and a plaid suit. Because why.
Nonetheless, he does make some good points sometimes. It's so nutty that there literally is no evidence at all, other than "it's a Russian chemical."
And obviously, the Russians would know that. So why would they use that chemical?
Let me tell you something, which should be obvious:
Virtually every person on the planet has loved ones. And someone who has the ability to try to assassinate you with a chemical weapon has the ability to get to those loved ones. Someone who could do that could break into your house at night, and be there when you turn the light on, and show you a live stream of your loved ones, and say they will be raped, tortured and killed if you don't hang yourself/shoot yourself/jump out the window.
Or, if you for some reason don't have loved ones, you're probably an extremely self-centered person, and they can threaten to torture you to death if you don't hang yourself/shoot yourself/jump out the window. Or threaten to expose secret information about you.
Furthermore, there are hundreds of ways to kill a person and make it look like an accident.
You can also shoot someone in the head or stab them to death on the street, make it look like a "robbery gone wrong." Not hard to explain that in a country with blacks.
So basically, the only reason you would use a Russian chemical to kill someone is if you wanted to make it look like the Russians did it. That is true for whoever did it, including the Russians.
That is to say: if the Russians did do it, they wanted to make it look like they did it.
So if the Theresa May et al. theory is that the Russians did this and wanted everyone to know that they did this, then within that theory needs to be included why the Russians would do this and want everyone to know that they did this.
What do they gain from this?
If their goal was to have the whole world attacking them and isolating them - which would have been their only possible goal, as it was the only possible outcome - then the West is just playing into the hands of Russia by doing that.
And if Russia is playing multi-dimensional chess at that level, well... then we need someone other than Theresa May making the decisions about how to handle this situation.
Honestly, this is all so dumb, I find it emotionally exhausting to even think about.
