A Greenie "organized" COVID denialist group

I use "organized" in scare quotes for two reasons.

One, it's not "organized" in that it's not an official Green Party group. (Stand by, though; with the myriad caucuses and such the GP already has, it wouldn't surprise me if somebody made an ask for an org like this.)

Second ... it's surely not organized.

I knew that there were plenty of individual Greens peddling this Plandemic and other COVID denialism; there's an official group for this now. Green Party of the United States needs to disavow this. In a sense, it already has, with science-based pronouncements like this one last May from nominees Howie Hawkins and Angela Walker. On the other hand, it could be argued by the party, and certainly by denialists, that this is only a personal statement by the two of them. 

The org has a bunch of loosely connected shit it threw at the wall. A few of its concerns are good, like Facebook as a monopoly, but that has ZERO to do with the truth of the matter about COVID. It appears hit-and-miss; its blog lists posts for last August, then nothing until this month. It appears to be in part a vanity project of Jack Dresser, who has reposted some of his Op-Ed News postings. (eyeroll) Dresser is also, for lack of a better phrase, a "smart meter conspiracy theorist," not just on claiming they're spying, but that they are dangerous radiation emitters, like ... wait for it, wait for it ... 5G smartphones.

It also includes nutter Green 2020 prez candidate David Rolde. Whether the group was more his idea or Dresser's, I don't know. Rolde is also a 5G nutter, among other things. And, finished fifth in his own state, as a write-in, in last year's GP prez primary in Massachusetts.

It claims to have four board members but only lists three: Those two and Ibrahim Taher. 

I've now wasted enough time.

 

Well, not quite. I'm unaware of similar groups with the name "Libertarian" or even the name "Republican" in front of them, implying affiliation with the political parties. I'm certainly unaware of a "Democrats" group. Greens who reject COVID denialism and conspiracy thinking should also reject "branding" by such groups and not tut-tut it.
