Jon Rappoport is a deliriously insane “independent
researcher” and blogger. According to his bio, he “has lectured extensively all
over the US on the question: Who runs the world and what can we do about it?”
For the last decade, however, he has “operated largely away from the mainstream”
because, as he puts it, “[m]y research was not friendly to the conventional
media.” Indeed. His independent research encompasses “deep politics,
conspiracies, alternative health, the potential of the human imagination, mind control,
the medical cartel,
symbology, and solutions to the takeover of the planet by hidden elites.”
He is, for instance, a germ theory denialist,
and in his post “Germ theory and depopulation” (discussed here)
he argues that “[i]n general, so-called contagious diseases are caused, not by
germs, but by IMMUNE SYSTEMS THAT ARE TOO WEAK TO FIGHT OFF THOSE GERMS” (yes,
the capitalization is in the original). Indeed, “GERMS ARE A COVER STORY. What
do they cover up? The fact that immune systems are the more basic target for depopulation and debilitation of populations.” The main tool is of course vaccines, which
are weapons the nefarious powers that be use to kill off, well, it is a bit
hard to see, partially because Rappoport’s post is mostly all-caps from there.
At least HIV is a cover story as well.
He has a similar screed on flu vaccines on whale.to if that’s the kind of stuff you
fancy reading. It is barely grammatical, but at least he gets his enthusiastic
anger across rather well.
Currently Rappoport seems to write on various topics for InfoWars.
Recently, for instance, Rappoport and InfoWars dubbed Rep. Tim Murphy’s bill seeking to reform the way the government addresses
mental health services a “diabolical legislative package,” since Rappoport
thought the legislation would require almost all children to take “psychiatric
meds,” and that the bill will ultimately give the federal government “a
monopoly of the mind.” Yeah, that’s the way he rolls.
Diagnosis: Hysterically crazy; and his influence is probably
not quite as limited as his level of crazy should suggest.
